World Cup

Today's World Cup Match Previews

Friday July 3, 2026 (10:42 am EDT)

Australia vs. Egypt

Egypt is the -162 favorite here with Australia promising a payout opportunity of US$132 for every US$100 bet to win.  Australia finished runner-up in Group D behind the United States in what has been quite a surprise run.  Consider also that they drew with Paraguay, a team that knocked mighty Germany out of the tournament the other day.  Australia has never won a World Cup knockout match, making today's game historic regardless of the outcome. Egypt finished runner-up in Group G, unbeaten in the group stage.  Group-stage results: 1-1 Belgium, 3-1 New Zealand, 1-1 Iran.   Egypt accumulated 5 points and reached the World Cup knockout stage for the first time in its history.

Argentina vs Cape Verde

Argentina is a huge -1800 favorite vs. this year's World Cup Cinderella story, Cape Verde.  Argentina is among the favorites to win it all.  Argentina won Group J with a perfect record. Group-stage results: Argentina 3-0 Algeria, Argentina 2-0 Austria, Argentina 3-1 Jordan.  Lionel Messi has been the dominant story: 6 goals in the group stage — a hat trick vs. Algeria, two vs. Austria, and one vs. Jordan.  Argentina has scored 8 goals total, with Messi accounting for six of them.  Cape Verde will pay out over US$1000 for every US$100 bet with a win here after reaching the knockout stage in their World Cup debut.  Kevin Pina scored from a free kick against Uruguay while Hélio Varela scored the equalizer in that match for Cape Verde. 

Colombia vs. Ghana

Colombia is a big -600 favorite against Ghana.  Colombia has scored 4 goals and conceded 1.  Key goalscorers included Daniel Muñoz — 2 goals so farm Luis Díaz — major attacking threat, and James Rodríguez — creative hub.  Ghana advanced as one of the best third-place teams from Group L.  They finished with four points.  Antoine Semenyo is Ghana’s main attacking threat, though there have been fitness concerns.
