It’s 2025! The United States Men’s National Team enter another important year as they partake in 2 major tournaments with the eyes starting to look towards the 2026 World Cup. The USMNT will once again put their title on the line in the Concacaf Nations League. They will then host the Gold Cup this summer, hoping to reclaim the title after losing in the semifinals in 2023.
It’s also a year where we can expect to see some big friendlies as the team prepares to co-host the world. We’re here to predict some things that will happen in 2025, so let’s get to it!
The USMNT will only lose twice in 2025.
A lot of people are down on how the USMNT play against top competition, but under Mauricio Pochettino, they’re going to get it together. Of all the matches they play in 2025, the USMNT will only lose 2.
The USMNT will claim a 4th straight Concacaf Nations League.
The USMNT are the only team to hold the Concacaf Nations League trophy. They will continue that in March in LA, beating Mexico to once again win the trophy.
Ricardo Pepi will score 10 goals for the USMNT.
The team didn’t score a lot of goals in 2024, but one will take his game to a new level in 2025. Ricardo Pepi will score double digit goals for the USMNT, helping secure his place as the go-to striker on the team.
The USMNT will beat England in a friendly.
The USMNT will likely schedule some big time friendlies to help the preparations for the World Cup, and England will be one of them. That friendly will be one for the ages, with the USA beating the Three Lions.
Without some major stars, the USMNT will win the Concacaf Gold Cup on penalties over Canada.
The Gold Cup this summer will be lacking in star power due to the FIFA Club World Cup going on at the same time. That won’t stop the USMNT, who will learn they have some depth by winning the Gold Cup on penalties over Canada.
The USMNT will score 8 goals in a game.
The USMNT will have one game where they will see the floodgates open in the net. The USMNT record for most goals in a game is 8. They will equal that record in one game this year.
