Canada couldn’t have asked for a better outcome.

With Bosnia and Herzegovina beating Italy for the final spot in Group B, the Canadians avoid a true heavyweight — and their path to the World Cup knockout stage remains firmly intact.

The draw didn’t just stay favorable… it slightly improved their World Cup odds.

Canada World Cup predictions

Pick: To qualify from Group B (-225 at Sports Interaction)

This is exactly the setup Canada needed.

Bosnia brings attacking quality, but they lack the structure, depth, and tournament experience that would’ve come with a side like Italy. Over a three-game sample, that difference is massive.

Canada now has a clear, realistic path:

  • Beat Qatar
  • Take something from Bosnia
  • Stay competitive with Switzerland

That likely gets them through — and possibly into the Top 2.

With the expanded format allowing third-place teams to advance, Canada doesn’t need perfection… just execution.
