My Canada vs Morocco goal scorer predictions: Favorites

Brahim Diaz, Morocco

Kalshi probability: 26%

Real Madrid winger Brahim Diaz has been a lively and dangerous attacking presence for Morocco but is yet to find his range in front of goal.

That may change here, however. He has a fine scoring record in national team colors — he has scored 14 times in 30 appearances for Morocco — and should benefit from a good amount of space, given that Morocco's three-goal top scorer Ismael Saibari will preoccupy the Canada defenders.

Jonathan David, Canada

Kalshi probability: 20%

Whatever happens in this game, this has already been a successful World Cup for Jonathan David as he became the first player to score a hat-trick for a host nation since Geoff Hurst of England 60 years ago when he struck a triple in Canada's emphatic win over Qatar.

David's clever movement inside and outside the penalty area should trouble Morocco's powerful but occasionally immobile center-backs. He's also Canada's primary penalty taker, increasing your chances of cashing an anytime goalscorer ticket.

Cyle Larin, Canada

Kalshi probability: 17%

Cyle Larin was benched for Canada's 1-0 Round of 32 win over South Africa, so he's not guaranteed to be in the starting lineup.

He was impressively efficient during the group phase, however. The 31-year-old forward scored two goals from only four shots on target, playing a vital role in Canada's progress despite logging just 162 minutes. His group-stage performances, combined with his long-term record of 32 goals in 93 appearances for Canada, make this an appealing price.

Achraf Hakimi, Morocco

Kalshi probability: 16%

A defender may not seem like an obvious value play, but Achraf Hakimi is no ordinary defender. The Paris Saint-Germain star is arguably the world's best attacking right-back and has consistently pushed forward for Morocco throughout this tournament.

His long-range shooting and perfectly timed runs into the penalty area give him multiple paths to finding the back of the net, making him an intriguing long shot in this market.

My Canada vs Morocco goal scorer predictions: Sleepers

Stephen Eustaquio, Canada

Kalshi probability: 5%

If you believe in unsung heroes running hot during a World Cup, Stephen Eustaquio is worth a look as a sleeper.

The 27-year-old midfielder fired a beautifully controlled volley from the edge of the penalty area into the bottom corner to secure Canada's dramatic 1-0 injury-time win over South Africa in the Round of 32. The market gives him just a 5% chance of scoring, which feels light for a player with five international goals in 60 appearances.

Neil El Aynaoui, Morocco

Kalshi probability: 13%

While Moroccan teenager Ayyoub Bouaddi has grabbed the headlines with his mature performances, midfield partner Neil El Aynaoui has quietly been the more dangerous player in the attacking half.

El Aynaoui has yet to score, but Bouaddi's intelligent positioning in deeper areas allows him to make forward runs. A regular starter for Roma in Serie A, El Aynaoui is a threat from distance and in the air, making him an interesting sleeper option at attacking set pieces.
