Lionel Messi leads all players with eight goals during the 2026 World Cup. However, Spain have conceded just one goal in the entire tournament.

Will the legendary Argentinian expose a crack or two in the Spaniards' armor? Or will 19-year-old Lamine Yamal start building his own legacy?

Yamal has only one goal in the tournament, but there's no time like the present to make a name for oneself.

Stake users can take advantage of this promo by following these steps:

  1. Find the boosted market on Stake.
  2. Select your preferred boost, Messi or Yamal to score (up to +900).
  3. Only one of the two odds boosts can be selected (if you pick Messi, you cannot also boost Yamal, and vice-versa).
  4. Maximum bet value and boost value may be different from user to user.
  5. If your bet wins, winnings get added to your account according to the wager/boost.

Score first, win now!

The Messi/Yamal boosts aren't the only exciting things happening over at Stake for the World Cup Final.

Stake's "Score First, You Win" promo allows users to sit back if their bet to win scores first, even if the result doesn't go their way.
