Friday's World Cup slate brings three more knockout matchups, and that means more star-driven same-game parlay opportunities.
Below, I'm breaking down my favorite goalscorer SGPs, with World Cup picks and World Cup odds for Australia vs. Egypt, Argentina vs. Cape Verde, and Colombia vs. Ghana.
Best World Cup parlays for Friday, July 3

 EGYvs.  AUS |

Egypt vs Australia parlay: +900
Egypt's attack runs through Mohamed Salah and Omar Marmoush, and both have favorable matchups against an Australian back line that has struggled to contain pace and movement in behind.
Salah remains Egypt's most reliable finisher, while Marmoush's direct running consistently puts him in dangerous positions.
If the Pharaohs advance as expected, there's a strong chance both stars leave their mark on the scoresheet.

Argentina vs Cabo Verde parlay: +190
There's no hiding from the price, but sometimes the obvious play is the right one. Argentina's attack is built around Lionel Messi creating and Lautaro Martinez finishing, with both capable of scoring in any match.
Cape Verde face their toughest defensive test of the tournament, and if Argentina reaches its expected scoring output, it's difficult to envision those goals coming from anywhere else.

Colombia vs Ghana parlay: +1600
This is the long shot of the slate, but the matchup has the ingredients for both sides to contribute.
Luis Diaz remains Colombia's most explosive attacker and thrives when games open up, while Antoine Semenyo gives Ghana a constant threat on the counter with his pace and power.
If this turns into the end-to-end affair many expect, both stars have the quality to cash at a generous +1600 price.
