Today

Saturday, June 13 · 4 matches

Three days in, four matches played, and the tournament finds its first genuinely loaded Saturday. Group B opens proceedings at three o'clock when Qatar face Switzerland, a game the consensus models treat as close to a foregone conclusion — Switzerland at 82 percent against a host nation that has never previously qualified for this tournament on merit. The recorded lean is Switzerland by at least two goals, which at 1.67 is a modest price for a line that carries a listed edge of 8.9 percentage points. Bosnia and Herzegovina and Canada, who drew on matchday one, sit above both teams on a point apiece while this pair have yet to kick off.

Group C then runs a double-header on FS1: Brazil against Morocco at six, where the models give Brazil 56 percent but Morocco's 19 percent is hardly negligible — treat it as competitive rather than comfortable — followed by Haiti and Scotland at nine, with Scotland favored at 67 percent. The night closes past midnight with Australia hosting Türkiye in Group D, where consensus splits evenly on a draw or a Turkish win and the numbers are tight enough that backing Australia at plus-half a goal, listed at 2.25 with an 8.8-point edge, is a genuine call against the grain rather than a confident lean.
