Today's game between Guatemala and El Salvador will kick off at Sep 28, 2026, 10:00 PM.
Guatemala vs El Salvador is available to watch live in the United States. TV channel and live stream options are listed below.
Guatemala host El Salvador in the CONCACAF Nations League, with both sides arriving at this fixture in contrasting form and with real stakes attached to the result.
Guatemala come into this match having lost all five of their last five games across all competitions, a run that includes a 3-2 defeat to Jamaica in their most recent Nations League outing. That result leaves them rooted to the bottom of their group and in need of a sharp turnaround.
El Salvador, by contrast, are top of the group standings and arrive with genuine momentum. Hugo Perez's side beat Martinique 3-1 in their last Nations League match, and their recent record shows a team capable of grinding out results when it matters.
The head-to-head history between these two sides adds further weight to this fixture. El Salvador have won three of the last five meetings, with Guatemala's only victory in that run coming in a 2-0 Nations League win back in September 2023.
With El Salvador looking to protect their group lead and Guatemala desperate for points, the stakes are clear on both sides.

Form
