Throughout the incarnations of the Concacaf Women's Championship, neither Costa Rica nor Panama has figured significantly in the final stages since its start in 1991. Both nations will look to change that this year, starting with their first matchup against each other on Tuesday on Paramount+. Panama has won just twice in its 10-match history with Costa Rica, but one of those victories came in a two-game friendly series between the two nations last September. With much higher stakes this week, you can see what happens in their next match when you stream the match live on Paramount+.
Costa Rica is 8-2 all-time against Panama, but none of those matches were played at a neutral site. Kickoff from BBVA Stadium in Nuevo Leon, Mexico is set for 7 p.m. ET and will be streamed live on Paramount+ with their must-have Premium plan.

2022 Concacaf Women's Championship picks for Panama vs. Costa Rica
Before tuning into Tuesday's match, you need to see the Costa Rica vs. Panama picks from SportsLine's soccer insider Brandt Sutton. Sutton, a former collegiate soccer player, has been SportsLine's top soccer editor for nearly five years. He has followed soccer closely for much longer and factors in managerial tactics, projected lineups and past performances to make the most informed decisions possible, keeping his finger on the pulse of the game all over the globe.
Sutton has crushed his soccer picks for SportsLine, going 107-80 overall in his last 187 soccer picks, returning $2,800 for $100 bettors.
For Costa Rica vs. Panama, Sutton is picking Costa Rica to win once more against their familiar opponent with a 2-1 final score. Panama made a habit of finding a way to find goals late against Costa Rica in the previous two matches. Marta Cox scored in the fifth minute of stoppage time after the second half to give Panama its 2-1 win, but Costa Rica pounced early in their next meeting, in a 3-2 result. Again, one of Panama's two goals came in extra time, which is often the exception rather than the rule, and a third such goal figures to be extremely unlikely on Tuesday.
"The Panamanians haven't played a competitive match together since their 2-0 victory over El Salvador on April 12," Sutton told SportsLine. "These two teams played to a thrilling 3-2 finish last September, a game in which Costa Rica won. Costa Rica jumped out to a 3-0 lead before conceding two late goals." Stream the match now here.
