Despite the fact that they reside at the bottom of Group B having lost all two of the matches they have played so far in the current International Football Federation (FIFA) World Cup qualifiers, national football captain Chris Nurse is optimistic of victory against El Salvador on Friday.

The national team is set to oppose El Salvador at 8pm (10pm Guyana time)  Friday night at the Estadio Cuscatlan in El Salvador, the largest stadium in South America with a seating capacity of 40,000.

The Guyanese are at the bottom of the points standings in
