England vs Congo DR pick: England (90 min)

Kalshi win probability: 77%

With this being a knockout game, it’s one Congo can’t settle for a draw, meaning that when they go behind, they will need to attack.

That will, in turn, create chances for England on the counterattack. While the Three Lions struggled against Panama, it’s notable that their second goal came five minutes after their first. Once they get their opening goal, the rest should fall like dominoes.

Belgium vs Senegal pick: Tie (90 min)

Kalshi probability: 30%

Senegal’s first-round group was tougher than Belgium's: They lost to France (1-3) and Norway (2-3), yet created more clear scoring opportunities in those matches than Belgium did... against Egypt and Iran.

The Lions of Teranga have superior athletic power in midfield, and I fully expect them to dominate in that area of the pitch.

USA vs Bosnia pick: USA (90 min)

Kalshi win probability: 72%

The Americans have eight goals despite averaging just 14.67 shots and five shots on target per match, showing how efficient they’ve been in attack. They’ve also utilized an aggressive counter-press that averages the third-fewest passes per defensive action (8.1) behind Germany and Spain.

Add in a healthy Christian Pulisic, and I’m confident the USMNT will come out on top of a Bosnian side that has compiled just 1.87 xG through three matches.
