USA vs Australia, a shootout for Group D top spot
Both co-hosts USA and Australia won their openers, so this is a straight fight for first place. Folarin Balogun’s brace sank Paraguay 4-1, while Australia were clinical in a 2-0 win over Türkiye. We lean USA 2-1, backing their attacking depth and home crowd in Seattle. Full breakdown in our USA vs Australia preview. Result: the USA won 2-0 to take the group and reach the Round of 32, as our USA vs Australia report covers.
Scotland vs Morocco, the group could swing here
Scotland top Group C after beating Haiti, with Morocco level on a point with Brazil after holding the favourites. A draw would suit Scotland, who defend deep and dangerously. We predict a tight 1-1. See the Scotland vs Morocco preview. Result: Morocco won 1-0 through an early Saibari goal, as our Scotland vs Morocco report explains.
Türkiye vs Paraguay, a knockout in all but name
Both lost their openers and sit on zero points, so the loser here is all but out. Türkiye have the more dangerous individuals in Arda Güler and Kenan Yıldız and should take the initiative. Our call is 2-1 to Türkiye. More in our Türkiye vs Paraguay preview. Result: Paraguay won 1-0 despite Almirón’s red card, as our Türkiye vs Paraguay report details.
Brazil vs Haiti, time for the favourites to deliver
Brazil were held 1-1 by Morocco and need a response, while Haiti lost narrowly to Scotland. Expect Vinícius Júnior and Rodrygo to be far sharper this time. We predict a comfortable 3-0 Brazil win. See the Brazil vs Haiti preview. Result: Brazil won 3-0 and Haiti went out, as our Brazil vs Haiti report recaps.
