For fans of Haiti and Trinidad and Tobago, this match is about the 2017 Gold Cup. One of these two teams will get to play the fifth-best team from the 2017 Copa Centroamericana in a playoff for a berth at the summer tournament. Haiti is very straightforwardly through if it wins. T&T will need the right sort of win: by two or more goals (assuming the Caribbean Football Union has got its tiebreaker information straight this time around).
The match cannot end in a draw, which may throw up an interesting game situation. Haiti will need to stay aware of the possibility of T&T following the example set by Barbados in 1994: scoring an own goal to force extra time.
