Gold cup awaits Caribbean teams

Twelve teams will compete in the third qualifying round which are divided equally in 4 groups. All of them are hoping to become winners in their respective groups as that leads to automatic berths onto the 2017 edition of the Gold cup.
Those teams who will finish second in their groups can still reach the finals next year, but their roads will be much more complicated (having to play additional matches).
As only 4 teams can reach directly the biggest football showdown in North America, we have to see some interesting games. For the next week only two rounds are scheduled while the final stage will be the following week.

Round 1:
06 October, Thursday at 01.00 CET: Trinidad and Tobago - Dominican Republic => group 4.
06 October, Thursday at 02.00 CET: Curacao - Antigua and Barbuda => group 3.
06 October, Thursday at 02.00 CET: Jamaica - Suriname (There is a possibility that this match will be postponed due to the biggest Caribbean hurricane Matthew that will hit Kingston next Monday. If that will be the case, there is no news yet for a new date) => group 1.
06 October, Thursday at 03.00 CET: Haiti - French Guiana => group 2.

Round 2:
08 October, Saturday at 21.30 CET: Suriname - Guyana => group 1.
08 October, Saturday at 22.00 CET: Dominican Republic - Martinique => group 4.

09 October, Sunday at 01.00 CET: French Guiana - St. Kitts and Nevis => group 2.
09 October, Sunday at 01.15 CET: Antigua and Barbuda - Puerto Rico => group 3.
