Team USA absolutely destroyed Team Brazil in its WBC opener, and Tarik Skubal and the Americans will look to keep the good times rolling vs. Team Great Britain tonight.
My Great Britain vs. USA predictions and World Baseball Classic best bets expect the United States to win comfortably on Saturday, March 7, with Alex Bregman doing his part to aid the cause.
Great Britain vs USA prediction
Great Britain vs USA best bet: USA -8.5 (-110 at DraftKings)
Great Britain lost to Mexico 8-2 in their WBC opener last night. Meanwhile, the United States ran away late from Brazil, 15-5, in a game where they drew 17 walks along with 10 hits.
Great Britain SP Tyler Viza has never pitched above Triple-A, and his 2.87 lifetime K/BB ratio isn't inspiring. Viza had a dismal 6.28 ERA in the Mexican league in 2025, and coughed up two earned runs over 3 1/3 innings in his lone 2023 WBC appearance.
To say Viza is overmatched by Tarik Skubal is the understatement of the century.

Great Britain vs USA same-game parlay (SGP)
USA -8.5
YRFI
Alex Bregman 2+ hits
The YRFI bet plays right into the main reason I'm fading the British tonight. Look for the Americans to pounce on Viza early, as they did last night by putting up two runs vs. Brazil.
I think Alex Bregman will get into the act early and often. He had the bat taken out of his hands in the five hole last night, drawing four walks along with one hit. I'm expecting better chances for him to actually hit vs. this poor Great Britain pitching staff.
Kyle Schwarber star player prop
Kyle Schwarber best bet: 1+ home runs (+165 at DraftKings)
If you're not striking out Kyle Schwarber, you're usually getting taken deep.
That rings true with the best of the best in MLB, and it should come to the fore in a highly advantageous scenario for the Phillies star.
