Top Picks for World Cup Day 21 | July 1st
England vs DR Congo
Both Teams to Score (+165)
England were largely unconvincing during the group stages, but they have made it through and face a winnable tie with DR Congo. Thomas Tuchel's men have suffered defensive disruption, and their back four looked like strangers at times during the 2-0 defeat of Panama. The Three Lions have plenty of firepower, and there are many options on the bench, too. Jude Bellingham was instrumental in moving his side forward and getting up the pitch. He could be the match-winner once again.
DR Congo have looked decent during the group stage, holding Portugal to a 1-1 draw (and being the better side), beating Uzbekistan and being narrowly defeated by Colombia. They will look to restrict England, but they are also dangerous going forward with Yoann Wissa and Cedric Bakambu both providing a threat. They have been particularly potent in the final 20 minutes, and they will not give up, even if the clock is ticking down. They should find a way through, eventually.
🗸 Long Shot: England 2-1 DR Congo - Correct Score (+900)
🗸 Extra Tip: Jude Bellingham Anytime Goalscorer (+233)
Belgium vs Senegal
Over 2.5 Goals (+125)
Belgium were another team that failed to convince during the group stage, but the Red Devils enjoyed a free-scoring performance against New Zealand, and they head into the knock-out stages with a bit of momentum. They will fancy their chances of progressing, but they have been given a potentially tricky tie with Senegal.
Rudi Garcia's men have plenty of individual talent in their squad, and Kevin De Bruyne is still the man pulling all of the strings in midfield. At the back, they still look a little uncertain, and they failed to keep a clean sheet in two of their three Group G fixtures.
Senegal went toe-to-toe with both Norway and France during the group stages, and they came out of it with plenty of credit. The African nation netted in each of their three games, putting five past Iraq, two past Norway and also finding a way past the French defence. They will pile forward at every opportunity and have too much individual talent to draw a blank in this one.
🗸 Long Shot: Both Teams to Score 2 or More Goals (+500)
🗸 Extra Tip: Over 1.5 Second Half Goals (+140)
USA vs Bosnia and Herzegovina
USA Win and Under 3.5 Goals (+100)
USA cruised through the group stage, and they have been rewarded with a clash against Bosnia and Herzegovina. Mauricio Pochettino made a few changes for the final group game, and he won't be too concerned about the 3-2 loss to Turkey. The USMNT created plenty of opportunities during that contest, and they will look to make another fast start here.
Christian Pulisic is back in the fold, and he will be able to pull the strings in the centre of the park if he is fit enough to feature.
Bosnia and Herzegovina snuck through as the third-placed side in Group B. They didn't particularly deserve their 1-1 draw with Canada, but having beaten Qatar, they have accumulated enough points and deserve their place in the Round of 32.
They will look to disrupt the USA throughout this game, and there are likely to be a few fouls and stoppages as a result. Bosnia will also look to capitalise on set-pieces and cause issues with their height and power. USA may just have enough to sneak past them.
🗸 Long Shot: USA 1-0 Bosnia and Herzegovina - Correct Score (+500)
🗸 Extra Tip: Over 14.5 Bosnia and Herzegovina Fouls (-130)
