Be ready for a possible upset here guys.
I think many people have underestimated Cape Verde as I stated in my prediction post.
There are no more “small” teams in world football.

🏆 WORLD CUP MATCHDAY 23 PREDICTIONS 🏆
*Odds from BetMGM*
1. 🇦🇺 🆚 🇪🇬
EGYPT TO QUALIFY 🇪🇬
-155
REASONING:
• Egypt have not lost at this tournament thus far, winning 1 and drawing 2 matches. On the other hand, Australia have lost 1 match against the U.S. and have drawn 1 and won 1, showing some inconsistency in their performance.
• Egypt do concede less goals per game (0.8) compared to Australia (1.10). They also score more as well, 1.4 goals per game vs 1.0 goal(s) per game.
• Egypt have star players like Salah and Marmoush who can make a big difference.
• Expect a close game possibly resulting in ET and Egypt advancing further.
2. 🇦🇷 🆚 🇨🇻
CAPE VERDE +2.5 🇨🇻
-175
REASONING:
• Cape Verde is undefeated in their last 5 games, winning 2 and drawing 3. One of those wins came against Serbia and two of those draws came against Spain and Uruguay, two very big teams.
• Cape Verde has a very high 60% CS percentage thanks to Vozinha and his strong defense.
• Although Argentina have won all 5 of their last 5 games, I have a feeling they will struggle against Cape Verde.
• I think everyone is underestimating Cape Verde and they may end up surprising a lot of people here with their performance.
3. 🇨🇴 🆚 🇬🇭
COLOMBIA -1.5 🇨🇴
+115
REASONING:
• Colombia have a very effective front footed approach that we saw in action against a big team in Portugal last time out. They can score, averaging 1.6 goals per game and having the 8th most shots on target (6.3).
• On the other hand, Ghana are struggling defensively, holding a mere 30% CS percentage and conceding more than they score (1.5 goals conceded for every 0.6 goals scored). Also, they have failed to score in 40% of their games.
• Expect the Colombians to come out on FIRE 🔥 and to bang some goals past the Ghanaians, without receiving a similar response.
TOTAL ODDS: +455

We have to pay tribute to the great Luka Modrić.
At 40 years old, he has played his final ever World Cup game for Croatia. It has been an absolute joy watching him play football on the biggest stage of all — the elegance, the control, the intelligence, the class.
One of the greatest midfielders this game has ever seen. 🇭🇷

🏆 WORLD CUP MATCHDAY 22 PREDICTIONS 🏆
1. 🇪🇸 🆚 🇦🇹
BTTS 🔥
+115
• Although Spain haven’t conceded a single goal at the tournament yet, I believe Austria will be the first team they concede to.
• Considering Austria scores on average 2.6 goals per game, they have the momentum to score on Spain, netting 3 goals in their last outing against Algeria, who also had a great defensive record.
• Look for Spain to score as well, as they have star players such as Lamine Yamal, Pedri, and Oyarzabal that can create chances.
• Spain also score about 2.2 goals per game and Austria concedes around a goal a game.
• This game will likely be electric with Spain getting a major win, expect a high score line with Austria finding the net at least once.
2. 🇵🇹 🆚 🇭🇷
PORTUGAL TO QUALIFY 🇵🇹
-275
• Both teams share a high possession percentage (Portugal - 62% and Croatia - 53%), however, in the long run I think Portugal will edge out a victory due to their heightened tactical discipline.
• Out of the 10 previous H2H matchups between these two sides, Portugal have won 7, drawn 2, and only lost 1.
• Croatia possesses only a 20% CS record, which Portugal is likely to capitalize on.
• Look for a possession heavy game, with Portugal being offered more opportunities to score and bagging away some goals.
3. 🇨🇭 🆚 🇩🇿
OVER 2.5 GOALS ⚽️
+115
• Switzerland is in the top 10 for shots on target at the tournament thus far, sitting at an average of 6 shots on target per match, with a 15.6% conversion rate.
• Both teams score about 2 goals a game on average and concede a goal a game.
• Switzerland holds a high BTTS percentage sitting at 80% with a 10% CS record and Algeria has a shaky 50% CS record.
• I am expecting BTTS and a high scoring game where many chances are put away.
