Haiti 0–6 USA

Haiti’s route to the semi-finals

Haiti are the designated hosts at Nu Stadium in Miami for the first leg of this CONCACAF Nations League quarter-final. Concacaf and U.S. Soccer confirm the move from Sabina Park in Kingston. The tie is decided on aggregate over two legs, with the return in Cincinnati on November 17 local time. Defeat in this opening match would not by itself end either side’s title hopes.

Haiti’s record in this competition gives them reason to believe. They have won three of their four Nations League matches, scoring nine goals and conceding five. In their two home-designated fixtures, they have won both games, with five goals scored and two conceded.

Haiti’s mixed finish

Haiti’s four-match sequence in this competition began with three wins before ending in defeat. They have scored nine and conceded five across those four matches, but the latest result is a reminder that their quarter-final challenge will demand a response.

The USA enter this edition at the quarter-final stage as a seeded team, as set out in Concacaf’s competition schedule. Their campaign begins with this tie. Haiti’s four results describe this competition only, rather than their wider form.

Recent meetings favour the USA

The USA have won all three of the sides’ last three meetings, with no draws and no Haiti victories. Their most recent encounter came in June 2025, when the USA won 2-1 in the Gold Cup. Two of those three meetings featured two goals or fewer, suggesting the fixture has often been closely contested.

Haiti’s competition platform

Haiti’s two home-designated wins in this Nations League campaign have brought five goals and just two conceded, with one clean sheet. Those results offer a foundation, but they do not establish a home-ground advantage for a match being played in the United States.

The USA’s recent results against Haiti offer a different source of confidence: they have won each of the three meetings listed in the available record. Their task is to carry that advantage into the opening leg in Miami.

Our prediction

The USA have a slight edge on the available indicators, particularly their three wins in the recent head-to-head sample, but Haiti’s results in this competition make them a credible threat. A tight first leg looks plausible, and the aggregate outcome remains open until the return match.
