MEXICO travel to the United States for this 2018 World Cup qualifier days after the shock election victory of Donald Trump.

USA vs Mexico is always a highly-charged clash, but Trump's plans to build a wall on the border between the two countries has raised the tension higher than ever before.

The match will take place in Columbus, Ohio - this will spice things up even more, as Ohio was a key state for Trump in his path to the White House.

The game kicks off at 1am on Saturday November 12 and highlights are on Sky Sports.

USA - Toronto FC striker Jozy Altidore is fit and in form and is expected to be the focal point of the USA attack.

MEXICO - El Tri have the luxury of choosing between two in-form forwards, in Real Sociedad's Carlos Vela and Bayer Leverkusen's Javier Hernandez.

Former Arsenal man Vela scored in Sociedad's win over Atletico Madrid last weekend, while Hernandez has netted seven times this season.

Elsewhere, Jonathon dos Santos and Andres Guardado could also start as Mexico aim to stop their opponents' free-flowing game.
