Sint Maarten Players to Watch
You have to watch out for these three players. The first is the attacker Gerwin Lake (#17), he plays in the national league of his country, in the team he has stood out as a great attacker and he could score in the match on Saturday. He is also a fundamental piece of the team as he has more experience than the others. Another player is Kay Gerritsen (#10), the 24-year-old who plays in the St. Martin league is an important player and managed to score in the last match against the Cayman Islands. The Lugo player, Oliver Hobgood (#6) at his young age is in one of the best soccer teams and will be key to distributing the ball all over the pitch.
Sint Maarten

French Guiana Players to Watch
The next three players are considered key to French Guiana's offensive attack and it is likely that any of them could score in the game against Saint Martin. Forward Arnold Abelinti (#11), plays in the French Guiana professional league. He is the fourth highest scorer for his team with 2 goals in 32 games played and will be very important for the Gold Cup due to his leadership. Forward Ludovic Baal (#10) is a great striker with a lot of speed and good ball control. He is 24 years old and we could see him assist or score in the game on Saturday. Finally, the Welling United player from the National League South, Yvelin Nozile (#19) is a very skillful player who managed to score in the last match. He has a lot of experience gained in England and it is very important that he leads the team in the game against Saint Martin.
