Hoping for a nice run from Uruguay to at least try and monetize later on. Just a gut feeling with Canada but the motivation will be there and all 3 games are winnable. They may need a favour from Bosnia to take some points from Switzerland. The other thing is once Canada plays in Toronto they will travel to Vancouver for the next 2 games. No back and forth. Maybe that's beneficial? Let's see how it plays out
We don't have a lot to go on with the Czechia / South Korea match. Feels like 1 nil South Korea or 1 to 1. I'm taking a stab at the under. My better half aka Princess Lady Bearington is throwing her hat into this years tournament. She likes South Korea

Bosnia-Herzegovina TT O0.5 -141 (1.41u to win 1u)
PLB with the homer pick Canada -0.5 -119 (1.19u to win 1u)
I sort of tied my Canada plays up with the Group bet so I'm laying off the side for game 1. Feels like this could be a draw today though. You can get Bosnia-Herzegovina +0.5 at +110. I do think Bosnia is scoring today so to me if you like Canada than you like the over 2.5 at +136. Just my thoughts.
Canada has never secured a point at the World Cup so a draw today would not be a big deal. If anything a momentum builder. On the other hand anything other than a USA opening win today would be a bit of a disappointment imo. I'm leaning USA on the ML which is currently +115. I may tackle them from a 1H and / or TT perspective as well.

You can make a case that Canada deserved the full 3 points but it ended up playing out as I thought it would.
For the late game the line to me is interesting. My initial lean was USA on the ML at +115. We have a total set at 2 -109 to the over along with a team total for Paraguay at over 0.5 -160. If I believe the USA ML to be correct than based on the total you are looking at either 1 nil or 2 nil USA. USA to win to nil is +230 or Paraguay TT U0.5 +133. If you believe Paraguay will score but USA will win than the better bet is to look at the over 2.5 +158.
USA ML +115 (1u to win 1.15u)
USA to win to nil +230 (1u to win 2.3u)
No play from Princess Lady Bearington on this match. Sometimes the best bet is no bet if you don't have a feeling for the game / match.

Tough one yesterday. Today is another day.
June 14
Not loving any of the prices for Germany today. I figure 3 or 4 nil with 2 goals coming in the 1H. Nothing strong enough to make a play in though.
In the 2nd game I like the Netherlands. Japan looked good in the lead up and have not conceded since last year I believe. That being said this is the World Cup and the Netherlands is a very challenging opponent. Should be a good game. 2 to 1 or 3 to 2 maybe for Netherlands.
Netherlands -0.5 +111 (1u to win 1.11u)
When you look at the line for the Ivory Coast / Ecuador match its asking for a nil nil or 1 nil either way. I originally liked BTTS and will stick with that play. Nice price.
No feeling in the Sweden / Tunisia game. Maybe Under 2.5? No play either way for me.
The Princess is still in shock over the Switzerland game yesterday and is taking today off.

This will be the first all time meeting between Germany and Curacao

The interesting thing with the Czechia / South Africa match is that a draw will not kill either team because 4 points would still be available going into the last group stage game which could be enough for one of the best 3rd place teams. However Czechia has Mexico while South Africa will have South Korea. I just don't see Czechia getting anything out of the Mexico match which means for them today is must win. Though South Africa would rather take the win, a draw does not kill them. A draw does finish Czechia imo though not mathematically. 3 points could be enough for one of the best 3rd place teams depending on goal differential. Czechia in a tight one today. Nothing for PLB until probably the Canada match.

This will be the 2nd all time match between Czechia and South Africa. They played to a 2 to 2 draw back in the 1997 Confederations Cup. I believe the tournament has been scrapped owing to fixture congestion.

This will be the 2nd all time match between Canada and Qatar. They played a friendly in the lead up to the 2022 World Cup which Canada won 2 nil
We do have some h2h history in the Mexico / South Korea match. There have been 9 all time matches between the 2 countries. Mexico leads the all time series with 4 wins 3 losses and 2 draws. 2 of those wins came in the 1998 World Cup and the 2018 World Cup. South Korea beat Mexico in the 2001 Confederations Cup and won on Penalties in the 2002 Gold Cup. The other 5 matches were friendlies with the last coming just last September which ended in a 2 to 2 draw

I would have been comfortable playing -175 with USA on the ML. It's down to -155 now. My theory on this is that the friendly that was played earlier has resurfaced in discussion thus swaying money towards Australia. It was a physical game with Australia pushing hard. USA prevailed 2 to 1 but for a friendly match the Aussies seemed to get under the USA skin. To me that match is motivation for the USA to come out and do what they did to Paraguay. In your face football. I don't think that Paraguay match was a one off. Conmebol still better than AFC imo. Expect them to play like that until they run into a team that can match their intensity.
