The 2023 CONCACAF Gold Cup qualification tournament determined the final three teams to qualify for the 2023 CONCACAF Gold Cup.[2]
The matches took place from 16 to 20 June 2023 at DRV PNK Stadium, Fort Lauderdale, Florida in the United States.[3]
Teams
[edit]Twelve teams participated in the 2023 CONCACAF Gold Cup qualifiers based on the results of the 2022–23 CONCACAF Nations League. These teams were the four group third-placed teams of 2022–23 CONCACAF Nations League A, the four second-place finishers from League B and the four group winners from League C.[4]
Trinidad and Tobago were originally set to participate as Nations League B Group C runners-up, but were automatically qualified after Nicaragua were disqualified. Trinidad and Tobago were replaced in the preliminary round by Antigua and Barbuda, the team with the best performance in League B who had not qualified.[5]
