- Tonight’s Guatemala–Panama match is scheduled for 9 p.m. ET in Guatemala City, with U.S. coverage on Telemundo Deportes Ahora, Paramount+ and Peacock, and a Concacaf Go/YouTube feed available internationally.
- Analyses note El Salvador’s direct-qualification path remains mathematically possible but highly unlikely without two wins and outside help.
- Jamaica and Honduras were identified as the only teams that could clinch direct qualification on Nov. 13, contingent on their results and rivals dropping points.
- Haiti’s home fixture versus Costa Rica is being staged in Curaçao because of ongoing violence, altering home-field conditions in Group C.
