FIFA World Cup 2026 :Canada/Mexico/United States: Discussion Thread

[ChocolateBitcoinK]

The good side about the next games of this world cup is whatever team you bet on they are gonna have super high odds and is always worth to bet on them, i know the risk is there since they play against other super team is not more easy games left in this tournament.

My main doubt is in the France Spain game, i dont know who is gonna be in the final from that side, France is a much better team but Spain won almost all the recent matches between them.

That's why I haven't bet on this match yet, I'm waiting and doing more research. Because in the current situation I don't see much difference between the two teams. If I compare the H2H of the past matches, Spain has a higher chance of winning, but I also think that this match should never be compared with the past matches.
This World Cup match will be very competitive because no team will spare any effort, so in this case I support France a little because the French team's players are aggressive and their running speed is very high. Mbappe, as soon as he gets the ball, runs towards the goalpost and is able to score.

But I don't think Spain will be able to beat France easily now, with the strength of France's current team, I rather think France will definitely beat Spain. Spain is a strong opponent, it's true, but I don't think it's very likely that Spain will beat France in this semi-final, what will happen in the match will be seen in the match, but from a personal point of view, I would say that France will win the match, it is very difficult to beat them at a stage like the semi-final. You can understand what France has done in the last two World Cups, so this time the World Cup should go to France in my opinion, Based on their current match performances.

Here are their odds, there's no real favorite when it comes to big teams vs big teams, the fact that France is slightly favored is because they've performed well throughout this tournament, but Spain is still one of the best teams too, whoever wins is the one who prepares best, and it's clear that this will be an interesting match, full of tactical battles between the two coaches. Betting on this match requires a bit of careful observation, or just a coin flip, because both teams have an equal chance of winning the match.

Wow the sportsbook favoriting France for qualifying to the final round than Spain, in my opinion quite difficult for predicting the match result during normal time and not close possibility extend until extra additional time. Spain still the best team regarding fewest goals conceded during the World Cup matches and so far conceded only 2 goals of 6 matches.

France have consistent performance during the world cup match and keep unbeaten with 100% winning trend since group stage until quarter final round, indeed Spain have bigger odds I am still confusing place bet for which one team France or Spain?

France is considered to be one of the strongest teams in the World Cup. There are many star players in the squad. And the bonding between the players is also excellent. As a result, they are able to perform well in every match. It is very difficult to stop Mbappe, Dembele and Olise in the attack. The Spanish team is also quite strong. But we are not seeing good performance from the Spanish players as expected. I had high expectations from Yamal in this World Cup. But he has only been able to score one goal in 6 matches.

The Argentina vs. England match is sure to be a high-intensity affair. I’ve been following their head-to-head history, and their matches have always been heated and fierce. The moment that remains most vivid in the memories of English fans is, of course, Maradona’s “Hand of God” goal against England in the 1986 World Cup. That’s why, when I see Argentina facing England in the semifinals, I’m reminded of that moment in history. Although, of course, it’s impossible for that incident to happen again now that VAR is in place, I can still imagine that this match will be thrilling. I’m rooting for Argentina to advance to the final.

Argentina has struggled in every match. England has too, however, the teams that have faced England have been far superior to those Argentina has faced. So, in my view, England can see these weaknesses and attack. I feel England is a much stronger favorite because they are more resilient than Argentina.

We can see France performing  well from the first match of the World Cup. France has dominated and won almost every  match. The team is in excellent form. Also, every player in  the France squad is very talented. Especially mbappe and Dembele are able to perform well in every match. He has scored  8 goals and  3 assists in 6  matches. Olise could not score any goals but he did 5 assists. And dembele has scored  5 goals and 2 assists. It is very difficult to resist such a strong attack and midfield.

On the other hand, Spain's  defense is also very strong. They have not conceded any goals in the first 5 matches of the world cup. The France vs Spain match will  undoubtedly be very  exciting. Both have strong squads.

Your analysis sounds wrong to me. England was close to getting eliminated by DR Congo, Argentina had huge problems to overcome Cape Verde. Doesn't make a big difference in my opinion.

In the round of 16 England had a harder opponent for sure as they were a host team and Mexico played "at home", which is a big deal given how intense the Mexican fans are. Yet you could see how long Paraguay held France to a draw, meaning that there are no easy opponents at those stages in a tournament.

England - Norway could have ended any other way, Switzerland - Argentina could have ended differently. By far the most dominant performance in that round was that of France against Morocco.

I would bet a lot of money that England is not going to have an easy time against Argentina. Jude Bellingham scores, but sometimes plays bad regardless. It is all these very close decisions and it will be the same in this game.

Teams which played against France so far tried to play defensively and they did quite well that way, even though France still won. However, with Spain I think it's going to be different. Spain is likely to wish playing openly against France, so the risks of being goaled are much higher.

The way Yamal talked about France doesn't bring good omens for Spain... He is underestimating the rival, what is one of the main mistakes of players when going to big and heavy matches.

After seeing France’s performance in this World Cup, I think everyone realizes that France is indeed the favorite in the match against Spain. After all, France’s experience in the World Cup has truly helped the team improve over time.

But Spain is also a team that’s continuing to improve. They have young players who always seem to really enjoy the game, so the Spanish players always compete without any significant pressure. They’re also always brimming with confidence. So I think France could very well lose to Spain, even though the most likely outcome is that Spain will lose.

It is true that if you check the head-to-head statistics of these two teams, Spain will be ahead. Out of the last  5 head-to-head vmatches, Spain has won 3 and France has won 2. The most important thing is that Spain won  against France last year in the UEFA nations league by a margin of 5-4 . Both teams are playing with the almost  same squad in the world cup as well. So Spain has the ability to defeat this French squad. Although, if you compare the overall  performance of these two teams in this world cup, France will have to be vahead. But Spain also has the full ability to defeat france.

Seriously i actually agree with you that France will be playing a totally different team with this Spain, if you look at this competition the biggest weapon the Spanish side have is the midfield and this is most certainly an area which the French side hasn’t actually been tested enough in my opinion, Spain have a midfield that can actually keep the ball very well and this doesn’t sits well with France who wants to have the ball always.

Another interesting battle coming in is at the defense of Spain which has been the best in the competition so far I think they actually conceded lowest goals so far that means they are solid defensively but they come Against the competitions most deadliest attack and this will be definitely a great game

In fact, some of the Norway players were playing selfishly that day, and I was really surprised. I kept asking myself if those players had actually been playing together as a team.Still, they managed to reach the quarter-finals. I didn't rate them at the beginning of the tournament, but they still did well to get that far.

I completely agree with you. In the Brazil vs Norway match we saw Norway perform excellently. As a team  they performed amazingly. They were able to successfully repel all  the attacks of Brazil. But in the match against england their gameplay was very boring. Especially the players played  very selfishly. Especially I saw haaland standing there like a  helpless  person. If Sorloth had passed the ball to him it would  have definitely been a goal. But sorloth himself missed the opportunity and he did not  even pass it to Haaland.

Let's forget that thing that boy is saying on the internet that he is going to swallow France. I feel that boy players too much, he is saying those things to get into the head of France players, there is no way France will lose to Spain, not under their watch. I have watch the games Spain has played, there are some they struggled but I don't think there is any game here so far France has struggled, they played wonderfully and never disappoint us when you need them.

I'm more interested in what Argentina will play with England because I'm not entertained with what Argentina played with Switzerland, the match was the poorest form I have seen since the beginning of this tournament. It should have been that kind of match they shouldn't have rest and if they come with that mind with England, it's not going to be easy for them.

Argentina was stronger than their opponents. But we saw Cape verde and Egypt and Switzerland play incredibly well. Honestly, we didn't think Egypt, Cape Verde and switzerland would play so well. Argentina fought hard and won  every match, it's true. But the interesting  thing is that argentina also scored 3 goals in every match. It was not easy to score  3 goals against such a strong defense. England's  attack is very strong, but their defense is quite weak. If argentina can use this opportunity well , they have a chance to win. Otherwise, England is the  favorite in this match.

Nothing kills a team's effort as quick as ego. Sorloth wanted to have his name on the scoreboard, but he forgot about the outcome for his team. I had to go search for that shot where Halland stood, with his arms stretched out as if to say, "just pass the ball sir"
Mahrez once made a statement---- He said he's not Messi, and he can't dribble alone to score. If the team is good, he's good. If the team plays bad, there's nothing he can do.

[shinratensei_]

Opta is in favor England to win against Argentina. Historically, Argentina always struggled to beat England, but they rarely face each other. However, there's is a slightly gap between England and Argetina in term of odds at stake.
England gets 2.55 while Argentina 3.00. So this is really concerning me to pick money line between both because when i choose England, there is still Messi on Argentina. It's always annoying me to pick which club to win.

So i have an alternative to go to the total over 2.5 because both of clubs are having pretty good goals productivity. It's interesting to see how it's going on soon.

If everything is being equal, England will easily defeat Argentina so long as the ref remains fair in his decision and judgement. Look at what Switzerland did, they were looking like the team to win untill that red card which changed everything entirely in the game. England are a more focused and determined team in this world especially in this knockout rounds unlike walhar we watched in the group stages. Both teams are strong no doubt but England is stronger in various positions compared to Argentina. For me, let the referee treat both teams equally so we can enjoy the game between them both.

[Swordsoffreedom]

I would bet a lot of money that England is not going to have an easy time against Argentina. Jude Bellingham scores, but sometimes plays bad regardless. It is all these very close decisions and it will be the same in this game.

It is not possible to win easily against this argentina squad. After Egypt took a 2-0  lead, I thought argentina would lose this  match. But Argentina scored 3 goals in the last  15 minutes before extra time. Argentina players are  very confident. And they try to win until the last second of the match. It is always a big challenge to beat such a team.

England is very strong. Especially kane  and bellingham are in incredible good form. These two players are able to  counterattack very quickly. It is true that it will be difficult for argentina's defense to resist these two. Even then, Argentina's squad is strong enough. Argentina's attack  is not weak either. The match will be fiercely competitive. I predict the match  will end in a tiebreaker.

[Ale88]

I agree with you, but England's players did an excellent job of keeping Haaland quiet and were well organized overall. The chance Sorloth failed to convert frustrated everyone because Haaland was completely open on the other side, and he didn't make the pass. It's a shame for Norway, but England deserved to reach the semi finals.

Sorloth miss play was the reason Norway did not win that game

After what he did while the game was 1-0, England a few minutes later scored the goal and equalized. Now think what would be the case if it was 2-0?

I could not believe he saw Haaland totally open to the goal and did not pass to him, tried to play alone and missed ugly. You can not do that with Haaland by your side in a world cup

I don't think it's fair to put all the blame to a single player. He should have passed the ball, we all agree with that, but let's not forget that the goalkeeper made a big mistake too. And what about the ball hitting the camera cable that lead to England's first goal? That was a huge referee's (and VAR) mistake. Many things happened, you can't simply blame Sørloth.

The same way others are thinking Spain would be France. The future can't be predictable we can't predict accurately which team would win between span and France but what I an tell is that the game wouldn't be easy for both teams. Spain has a great squad,based on their current squad I think they can be able to defeat France. If Spain was able to beat Portugal and Belgium convincingly I think they can defeat France. France is strong,in this semi final it would be their toughest match in this tournament. apart from Spain, no other teams would be tough for France. If France can be able to beat spain I think they wil likely win whoever they would meet in the final.

youre right, france is a strong team infact very strong and they have proved themselves several times and imo worldcup is their (Mbappes) favorite tournament and they have performed really well in the past few worldcups. on the other side, spain hasnt been in their top notch form in the previous world cups but honestly speaking they didnt have this much young players then. if i had to bet (which i would never) i would on france.
