FIFA World Cup 2026 Futures and Games Picks Thread

Any value in the Brazil/Haiti match? Would assume Brazil wants to get out of there with a W and healthy....so if up 2 or 3 mid second H will they be content to dribble the clock out?

BRAZIL V HAITI

38. Vinicius Jr. Anytime Goal scorer @ 1.72/-139 (1u) Bet365

Lean

Rapinha anytime goal scorer @ 2.00/+100  Pinnacle 

There is no value backing Brazil at these odds. Their form is sketchy, however they have the firepower to dismantle any side despite their incohesive play. I think they need a statement win to keep the wolves at bay. Vini has scored in 2 of Brazils last 3 games so he should get on the board and with the absence of Neymar Rapinha is the next in line penalty taker and at evens seems like a touch of value. However he did have a very poor game versus Morocco and has been criticized in the press.

Pulisic out today. 

@DiamondJack

You still like US without pulisic?

TURKIYE V PARAGUAY

39. Turkiye ML @ 2.10/+110 (2u) Pinnacle

Lean

Turkiye -1 (AH) spread corners @ 1.85/-117  Bet365 

This is a simple handicap, the Turks are simply the better side that were unlucky versus the Aussies. They will all out attack shoot a lot and that should lean for them having more corners then Paraguay. I think key man on the left side Kenan Yildiz from Juventus is fit enough and will start and that is big because outside of maybe Arda Guler is Turkeys best player.

I added Robertson to get booked into your SGP thanks to your write-up. And as written he dragged down Hakimi. 

Wonderful analysis as always DJ, cheers!

  Vinny! 

Wasn’t able to watch the USA match. Had over 5.5 targets on goal. Stats said they had 10 on goal. Bet365 graded only 2 on target. Anyone able to explain what I’m missing? Appreciate it. 

Brother. The USA only had 2 shots on target, hence the loss. 

10 shots in total.  

NETHERLANDS V SWEDEN

40. Netherlands ML @ 1.73/+110 (1u) Bet365

41. Cody Gakpo to score or assist anytime @ 1.83/-120 (1/2 u) Bet365

Lean

BTTS YES + Team Total Goals Netherlands OVER 1.5 (SGP) @ 2.25/+125  Bet365 

Both of these sides are in good scoring form. The Sweden win over Tunisia has to taken with a grain of salt but they did pop in 5. Form wise in the last 12 games Sweden no clean sheets recorded and 24 goals against. Holland 32 goals for in their past dozen games. Norway was a common opponent to both these sides. Sweden lost 3-1 while the Netherlands won 2-1. Codey Gakpo the top scorer from the last Euros is yet to get on the board and as the Netherlands top penalty taker I believe he gets involved today. Everything here points to a 2-1, 3-1 win for the Netherlands.

DJ

Where did you get that great line on netherlands? I have -140  must if gotten it very early

Think there was a typo because 1.73 is -137

Yep sorry typo

GERMANY V IVORY COAST

42. Kai Havertz anytime goal scorer @ 2.34/+134 (1u) Pinnacle

Leans

Yan Diamande to be fouled 2+ times (SGP) @ 2.00/+100  Bet365 

Germany Team Cards OVER 1.5 @ 2.50/+150 Bet365

Germany have yet to be tested having won their opener 7-1 versus lowly Curacao. Form wise they have won 10 straight scoring 32 goals. The Ivory coast impressed me versus Ecuador and are also on a good run of form with 9 wins 1 draw and a single loss in the past 10. I think we see goals and an open style here with both sides already on 3 points. Tactically Leipzig's Yan Diomande was the go to man for the Ivory coast versus Ecuador so much so he was being doubled in the second half. In the Bundesliga he completed the most successful dribbles per 90 minutes. He averages drawing over 1.5 fouls per game. In the opener he was fouled twice. He will be up against Brown who fouled twice and Pavlovic who committed 6 last games. I would see how Germany lines up to defend this kid and play props like cards for Germany. No one on Germany was carded is the first match and with cards being reset after the group stage they can afford to get a yellow or two.
