Germany vs Curacao parlay
Germany is the biggest favorite of the opening round (-2500), and with an implied team total north of three goals, they're expected to put up a big number on Sunday.
Kai Havertz (-225) is the clear betting favorite to lead Germany in scoring at +175, compared to +600 for the next shortest option. He also took a penalty during the friendlies, adding another path to goals.
Florian Wirtz (-150) rounds out the pairing after looking like Germany's best attacking player in the lead-up matches: He produced three goals and two assists in the friendlies and consistently generated quality chances and expected production.

Netherlands vs Japan parlay
This is the match to target two-way scoring, with BTTS — Yes sitting at -125, one of the shortest prices in that market during the opening week of the tournament.
Cody Gakpo (+200) gets the nod over Memphis Depay (+140) due to the uncertainty surrounding Depay's health. If Depay isn't fully fit, Gakpo could also pick up penalty duties, giving him multiple paths to goals... and he looks like the stronger Dutch scoring option early in the tournament.
On the Japanese side, Ayase Ueda (+250) is the clear choice. He is +225 to lead Japan in goals, with the next shortest option all the way back at +900. Ueda handled penalty duties during qualification and dominated the team's xG production, making him the focal point of the Japanese attack.

Ivory Coast vs Ecuador parlay
This could be one of the lowest-scoring matches of the opening week, with Over 2.5 goals paying a hefty +200. It's tough to see either side putting up multiple goals, so I'm taking one scorer from each team and not getting too cute with a +1200 ticket.
Enner Valencia (+187) is the penalty taker for an Ecuador side that tends to play in tight, low-scoring matches. During qualification, he produced nearly three times the xG of any teammate and accounted for 46% of Ecuador's goals. If Ecuador finds the scoresheet, there's a good chance Valencia is involved.
For the Ivory Coast, Amad Diallo (+350) is the pick. He turned things up during AFCON with three goals and an assist, then carried that form into the friendlies with another goal. He is tied with Ange Bony for the shortest odds to finish as the Ivory Coast's top scorer.

Sweden vs Tunisia parlay
Sweden is only a -110 favorite, despite failing to win a match during the qualification group stage and then needing to run the table in the playoffs, where they still conceded three goals. Tunisia has a real path to getting on the scoresheet Sunday night.
Hazem Mastouri (+333) is the Tunisian I want. He was one of just three players on the squad to score multiple goals during qualification and the only one to post an xG above 2.0.
For Sweden, Viktor Gyökeres (+120) is the clear choice. He is tied for the shortest odds to score for his nation, led the team in xG during qualification, and converted Sweden's lone penalty goal. His penalty-taking ability only adds to his appeal, and in the playoffs, he scored a hat trick vs. Ukraine — then scored the winning goal in a 3-2 defeat of Poland in the 88' of a 2-2 game.
