Intro:

Mexico prepare to face Honduras in WC qualifier.

Script:

On Friday Mexico will face their first must-win match of the year as they visit Honduras in the always hostile environment of San Pedro Sula.

The top three out of six in the CONCACAF World Cup qualifying group win automatic spots at Brazil 2014, with the fourth placed team competing in a home and away play-off against the winners of the Oceania group.

Honduras are the surprise group leaders after victory against USA in the opening game; Mexico drew blank against Jamaica and coach Jose Manuel de la Torre says although there challenges, the game is winnable.

SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) Mexico coach Jose Manuel de la Torre

"At the end it's a soccer match with circumstances like the ones you mentioned before, like the conditions of the pitch, the whether, the fact we are away from home - but we have done that before and we have come out with positive results. We will go with the same intention: to win the match."

Jamaica play Panama, while USA host Costa Rica in the other round two games.
