⚽ Algeria vs Austria | 🕗 28.06.2026, 02:00 GMT |📍Kansas City Stadium
Austria have built their tournament around a high-pressing, possession-based system that has caused problems for more fancied opponents, while Algeria will look to rely on pace and directness on the counter-attack. This has the makings of an open, competitive contest, with Austria’s superior organisation likely to give them the edge without making it a one-sided affair. Our tip: Austria to Win & Both Teams to Score at odds of 2.10.
⚽ Jordan vs Argentina | 🕗 28.06.2026, 02:00 GMT |📍Dallas Stadium
Argentina go into this one as overwhelming favourites against a Jordan side making history simply by competing on this stage. The South Americans’ quality across the pitch, led by their world-class attacking talent, should be too much for a Jordanian defence that will likely sit deep and try to limit the damage. Expect Argentina to dominate territory and chances throughout. Our tip: Argentina to Win & Over 2.5 Goals at odds of 1.88.
⚽ South Africa vs Canada | 🕗 28.06.2026, 19:00 GMT |📍Los Angeles Stadium — Round of 32
This is a huge occasion for both nations, with Canada riding the wave of home support and South Africa looking to cause a major upset on the biggest stage in football. Canada have shown improved attacking organisation throughout the group stage and should have the edge in quality, but knockout football often produces tighter, more cautious contests as teams fear elimination. Expect Canada to press for the breakthrough while South Africa stay compact and look to hit on the break. Our tip: Canada to win at odds of 1.90.
Day 18 delivers the perfect bridge between tournament phases — Argentina and Austria flexing their group-stage muscle, before South Africa and Canada kick off the win-or-go-home Round of 32 in Los Angeles. With knockout football guaranteed to bring even more unpredictability and value in the days ahead, now is the time to get in on the action. Ready to back our expert tips?
