Canada vs. Panama: Time, TV channel, preview and how to watch Qatar 2022 World Cup qualifying matchCanada Soccer
A huge match between World Cup hopefuls kicks off Wednesday in Toronto.

The end of the three-match October international break comes with Canada looking to remain undefeated in the final round of CONCACAF's World Cup qualifiers for Qatar 2022.

Along with Mexico, the Canadians have survived the first five matches without suffering a loss. John Herdman's men have amassed a 1-4-0 (W-D-L) record thus far, which has them in fourth place heading into Wednesday's crucial match against Panama at BMO Field in Toronto.

The Panamanians sit one spot above Canada on the table after pulling off a stunning victory over the United States on Sunday. That result sees the Central Americans head north with a single point more than the home side.

As such, Wednesday's game can be seen as a virtual must-win for Herdman's team. 

Three points against the Canaleros would not only allow the Canadians to leap frog their most direct challenger for third place in the eight-team group, but it would also set the tone for a pivotal three-game home stretch as Canada hosts Costa Rica and Mexico next month in Edmonton.
