United States v Paraguay
Sweden's 3-4-1-2 with Isak and Gyökeres up front is a formidable attacking setup, especially against a Tunisia side that conceded 5 to Belgium in a recent friendly. Tunisia's 4-2-3-1 double pivot of Skhiri and Khedira is disciplined but lacks pace at the back (Rekik, Talbi). Sweden's wing-backs Bernhardsson and Gudmundsson will overload the flanks. Expect Sweden to control possession and create chances through Isak's movement and Gyökeres' physicality. Tunisia may snatch a goal on the counter via Hannibal or Saad, but Sweden's quality should prevail in a comfortable win. The H2H is all friendlies from decades ago — irrelevant here. Sweden's set-piece threat from Lindelöf and Lagerbielke adds another dimension.

Sweden's golden generation features world-class attackers Isak and Gyökeres, so Jon Dahl Tomasson will likely start both in a 3-4-1-2, with Elanga providing width as a wing-back. The midfield trio of Svanberg, Karlström and Ayari offers balance. Tunisia under their coach will sit in a compact 4-2-3-1 with Skhiri and Khedira shielding the defence, relying on Mejbri's creativity and Achouri's pace on the break. Expect a tight Group F opener with Sweden's superior firepower edging it, but Tunisia's defensive organisation makes them hard to break down.

Ecuador arrive on a 19-match unbeaten run with the best defensive record in South American qualifying, anchored by Moisés Caicedo and the back three of Ordóñez-Pacho-Hincapié. Ivory Coast are without Evan Ndicka (injury) and Sébastien Haller (omission), meaning Agbadou and Singo form an improvised centre-back pairing that Ecuador's Enner Valencia can test on transitions. The Ivorian midfield of Kessié and Seko Fofana is powerful but can be bypassed by Ecuador's quick three-man forward line. Ecuador's 3-4-3 gives them width through Minda and Plata, while Ivory Coast's wide threat (Pépé, Touré) is real but they lack a proven No. 9 — Wahi is raw at this level. A tight, low-scoring game suits Ecuador's structure; they nick it 1-0 with Enner Valencia scoring from a Caicedo through-ball in the second half.


Netherlands have a clear technical and physical advantage, with a settled 4-3-3 that controls midfield through Frenkie de Jong and Gravenberch. Japan are missing key players Endo and Mitoma, and their 3-4-2-1 leaves them vulnerable wide — exactly where Dumfries and Summerville can exploit. Van Dijk is dominant on set pieces, and Gakpo is the primary penalty taker. Japan's best hope is Kubo's creativity and Ueda's finishing on the counter, but Verbruggen is solid. Expect 2-0 Netherlands: Gakpo from open play, Van Dijk from a set piece, and Japan scoring a late consolation through Ueda after Netherlands ease off.


This is a massive mismatch. Germany, a World Cup heavyweight, faces debutants Curaçao in a group-stage opener. Germany's XI is stacked with elite creators (Musiala, Wirtz, Sané) and a clinical finisher in Havertz, while Curaçao's defence — despite being compact — is largely made up of players from mid-tier European leagues and will be overwhelmed by Germany's high press and quick combinations. Germany's midfield double-pivot of Pavlović and Nmecha offers control, and the full-backs (Kimmich, Brown) will push high. Curaçao's best hope is transition via Chong and Hansen, but Neuer should handle limited chances. Expect a multi-goal German win with goals spread across their attacking stars. Havertz from close range, Wirtz pulling the strings, Musiala dribbling through, and Sané cutting inside — all likely scorers. A set-piece header from Tah or Schlotterbeck is also plausible. Curaçao may grab a consolation if Germany ease off, but the scoreline should be emphatic.


Off-roster players ignored: Australia: Mohamed Toure
Australia's XI is experimental — Beach debuts in goal behind a back three of Circati, Souttar and Burgess, with Italiano and Bos as wing-backs. The midfield trio of O'Neill, Okon-Engstler and Metcalfe is raw and lacks international rhythm. Toure leads the line but gets little service against Türkiye's experienced center-back pairing of Demiral and Bardakcı. Türkiye, by contrast, field their strongest XI: Çalhanoğlu pulls the strings from deep, Kökçü and Güler provide creativity between the lines, and Aktürkoğlu's movement off the left stretches Australia's back three. Australia's disjointed buildup and defensive inexperience will be punished. Türkiye's quality in midfield and wide areas should produce two goals, while Australia may snatch a consolation through a set-piece or a moment from Irankunda's pace. A 2-1 Türkiye win feels right — but the scoreline could easily be 2-0 if Australia fail to convert.


Off-roster players ignored: Scotland: Andrew Robertson
Scotland are heavy favourites based on ranking (40 places above Haiti) and form (4-1 vs Curacao, 4-0 vs Bolivia). They have a strong midfield with McTominay, McGinn and Ferguson all capable of arriving late and scoring. Haiti's defence is untested at this level, and while they have pace on the counter through Isidor and Pierrot, Scotland's backline of Hickey, Hanley, Hendry and Robertson is solid. Haiti will be compact and look to hit on the break, but Scotland's quality should tell. Expect Scotland to control possession and score two goals — McTominay from a late run, Adams from a cutback. Haiti may grab a consolation through Isidor catching Scotland napping on a counter. 2-1 Scotland.


Brazil start as clear favorites despite Neymar's absence — Ancelotti's side has depth in attack with Vinícius Jr., Raphinha, and Igor Thiago, while Casemiro and Bruno Guimarães give them control in midfield. Morocco, without Sofyan Amrabat in the XI and with a young midfield pivot of Bouaddi and El Aynaoui, may struggle to contain Brazil's wide threats. However, Morocco's counter-attacking quality through Brahim Díaz and Hakimi's overlapping runs can trouble Brazil's high line. The head-to-head is 1-1, but Brazil's superior individual quality should prevail in a high-tempo opener. I expect Brazil to score twice — Vinícius Jr. cutting in from the left and Raphinha finishing a quick transition — while Morocco grab a consolation through Brahim Díaz on the break. The scoreline reflects Brazil's control without being a rout.


Qatar are the clear underdogs here. Their World Cup history is three losses in 2022, and they face a Swiss side that is tactically disciplined, experienced, and strong defensively — they conceded only 2 goals in 6 qualifiers. Switzerland's XI has quality throughout: Akanji and Elvedi at centre-back, Xhaka and Freuler controlling midfield, and Embolo leading the line. Qatar will rely heavily on Afif and Edmilson for counter-attacks, but Switzerland's shape should contain them. The Swiss are likely to dominate possession and create chances through Ndoye's width, Vargas's dribbling, and Embolo's physical presence. Expect Switzerland to score twice — Embolo from a cross (Ndoye assist) and Vargas cutting inside (Xhaka assist). Qatar may grab a consolation through Afif, their talisman, on a break. 1-2 Switzerland feels right.


The USA start Matt Freese in goal (Turner dropped) and a 3-4-2-1 with Pulisic and Tillman behind Balogun. Paraguay sit deep in a 4-4-2 with Cubas and Bobadilla shielding a veteran centre-back pair, but they lack pace wide — Dest and Robinson can overlap aggressively. The US out-shot Paraguay 2-1 in the November friendly and now have home advantage at SoFi. Paraguay will rely on Enciso and Almirón on the break, but Richards and Ream are experienced enough to contain them. Expect an early US goal to force Paraguay forward, leaving space for a second before the hour, and a late Pulisic finish to seal it. Paraguay's attack lacks the cohesion to score.


Canada are at home in Toronto, riding an eight-match unbeaten run under Jesse Marsch's high-press system, while Bosnia needed penalty shootouts just to qualify and have conceded first in recent matches. Bosnia's backline (Katić, Muharemović) is slow and will be stretched by David's movement and Buchanan's width. Bosnia's best outlet is Džeko off the bench, but without him starting and with Canada's full-backs pushing high, the hosts should control possession. David (Canada's all-time scorer) gets two, Oluwaseyi converts a second from a Buchanan cross, and Bosnia struggle to break down Crépeau.


This Group A opener is a stylistic clash — South Korea's fluid front four (Son, Lee Kang-in, Lee Jae-sung) against Czechia's tall, physical 3-4-2-1 anchored by Souček and Krejčí. Korea will look to exploit the space behind Zelený and Coufal with Son's dribbling and Lee Kang-in's creativity. Czechia rely on Schick's hold-up play and Šulc/Provod arriving late. With no confirmed injury concerns on either side and both teams nervous in a World Cup opener, expect an open, transitional game. Korea's centre-back pairing of Kim Min-jae and the inexperienced Lee Han-beom is vulnerable to Schick's aerial ability, while Czechia's back-three lack pace against Son and Lee Kang-in. Korea score first through a Son break; Souček levels from a corner; Lee Kang-in restores the lead with a free-kick; Schick equalises late after a set-piece scramble. A 2-2 draw feels the most balanced outcome.


Mexico are heavy favorites at home in the Azteca opener, with a clear ranking and squad-depth advantage. South Africa's 5-3-2 will sit deep and look to counter through Foster's pace, but Mexico's midfield trio of Fidalgo, Gutiérrez and Alvarado should control possession. Raúl Jiménez is the penalty taker and focal point, while Julián Quiñones offers direct running. South Africa's best hope is a set-piece or a Foster counter, but Mexico's defensive line of Montes-Vásquez should handle it. Expect Mexico to break through in the second half after sustained pressure, with Jiménez scoring from the spot and Quiñones adding a second. South Africa may grab a consolation through Foster on a break.

This is a Group E opener between two defensively disciplined sides. Ivory Coast manager Emerse Fae is expected to field a 4-2-3-1 with Yahia Fofana in goal behind a strong centre-back pairing of Evan Ndicka and Odilon Kossounou, with Wilfried Singo at right-back and Ghislain Konan at left-back. Franck Kessié and Ibrahim Sangaré provide the midfield shield, while Simon Adingra, Amad Diallo, and Nicolas Pépé support target man Evann Guessand. Ecuador, under Sebastián Beccacece, also favour a 4-2-3-1: Hernán Galíndez starts in goal, with a back four of Ángelo Preciado, Willian Pacho, Piero Hincapié, and Pervis Estupiñán. Moisés Caicedo and Alan Franco anchor midfield, with Gonzalo Plata, Kendry Páez, and John Yeboah behind captain Enner Valencia up top.
This is the opening Group F match, and both sides will be cautious but the Netherlands need to justify their seeded status. The FotMob predicted lineup gives a strong indication: Koeman likely goes with a 4-2-3-1 — Verbruggen in goal; Dumfries, van Hecke, van Dijk, van de Ven across the back; Gravenberch and de Jong as the double pivot; Summerville, Reijnders, and Gakpo behind Malen as the striker. Depay is fit and selected but may be eased in from the bench. For Japan, the FotMob projection shows a 3-4-2-1: Suzuki in goal; Watanabe, Itakura, H. Ito as the back three; Doan and Nakamura as wing-backs; Tanaka and Kamada in central midfield; Kubo and J. Ito as the two playmakers behind Ueda up top. This is a disciplined, compact shape that Japan have used successfully. I expect a tight game — Netherlands' quality in midfield should edge it, but Japan are well-organized. Score prediction: 2-1 Netherlands.
Germany, under Nagelsmann, will likely field a 4-2-3-1 with Neuer in goal. Kimmich shifts to right-back, Rüdiger and Tah partner at centre-back, Raum at left-back. The double pivot should be Groß and Stiller (or Pavlović) to control midfield, with Musiala as the #10, Wirtz and Sané on the wings, and Havertz leading the line. Curaçao will sit deep in a 4-4-1-1 or 4-5-1, with Room in goal, a back four of Gaari, Bazoer, Obispo, and Floranus, a midfield double pivot of L. Bacuna and Roemeratoe, wide players Chong and Antonisse, Noslin as the #10, and Locadia as the lone striker. Germany's quality and pressing should overwhelm Curaçao's compact block.
Australia's compact 3-4-2-1 shape under Popovic relies on Souttar and Burgess aerially, with Circati as the left-sided ball-player. Irvine and O'Neill form a double-pivot to screen the back three, while Leckie and Metcalfe support lone striker Toure. Türkiye's 4-2-3-1 features Çalhanoğlu and Kökçü controlling tempo, with Güler and Yıldız as creative wide threats cutting inside. Demiral and Bardakcı start at centre-back for their physicality against Toure, while Çakır gets the nod in goal for his experience. The predicted FotMob lineups align with these tactical setups.
Scotland are clear favourites despite missing Billy Gilmour; McTominay is fit and will start in a double pivot with Ferguson. Robertson and Hickey provide width from full-back, while Adams and Shankland lead the line with Christie and Ben Gannon-Doak (pace) on the flanks. Haiti will likely sit deep in a compact 4-4-2, relying on Placide's experience, the physicality of Adé/Delcroix at centre-back, and the counter-attacking threat of Nazon alongside Pierrot up front. Bellegarde and Jean Jacques provide midfield ballast. Expect a tight first half but Scotland's superior quality to tell.
Brazil starts their World Cup campaign without Neymar (injured), so Ancelotti will likely go with a 4-2-3-1 featuring Vinícius Jr. and Raphinha wide, Paquetá as the creative 10, and a double pivot of Bruno Guimarães and Casemiro for balance. Up front, Endrick gets the nod as the focal point given his form. Morocco will stick with their trusted 4-2-3-1 from 2022: Bounou in goal, Hakimi and Mazraoui as attacking full-backs, Aguerd and Diop at centre-back, Amrabat anchoring midfield, with Brahim Díaz and Ezzalzouli supporting El Kaabi. This is a tough opener for Brazil against a well-organized Moroccan side, but home advantage and individual quality should see them edge it 2-1.
Switzerland are heavy favorites with a deep, experienced squad anchored by Xhaka and Akanji. Qatar, under Lopetegui, will likely sit in a compact 4-3-3/5-4-1 low block and rely on Afif and Almoez Ali on the counter. FotMob's predicted Swiss XI (4-2-3-1 with Kobel, Widmer, Elvedi, Akanji, Rodriguez, Freuler, Xhaka, Ndoye, Rieder, Vargas, Embolo) looks highly plausible given fitness and form. For Qatar, Barsham starts in goal; the back four of Pedro Miguel, Khoukhi, Lucas Mendes, and Homam Al Amin is their most experienced; Boudiaf, Hatem, and Madibo provide a defensive midfield base; Afif and Edmilson Junior support Almoez Ali up top. This is the likeliest XI for both sides.
USA are at home in a massive World Cup opener. Pochettino is expected to go with his trusted 3-4-2-1 shape: Matt Freese has been the starting GK in recent camps; the back three of Richards, McKenzie, and Ream provides balance of pace and experience. Dest and Robinson are the wing-backs, with Adams and McKennie as the double-pivot. Pulisic and Tillman operate as the two #10s behind Balogun, who leads the line. For Paraguay, Julio Enciso is confirmed out injured, so Almirón and Sosa start wide of Sanabria. The midfield trio of Cubas (holding), D. Gómez, and Bobadilla offers structure. Gustavo Gómez and Alderete anchor the back four, with R. Fernández in goal.
Canada, playing at home in their World Cup opener, will stick with Jesse Marsch's high-press 4-4-2. Davies is fit and starts at left-back; David and Larin lead the line with Buchanan and Shaffelburg providing width. Eustáquio and Koné are the double pivot. Bosnia will likely sit in a compact 4-4-2, relying on Dzeko's hold-up play and Demirovic's movement on the counter, with Kolasinac and Dedic as the full-backs and Hadziahmetovic pulling strings in midfield.
This is a Group A opener at the World Cup. South Korea under Hong Myung-bo typically use a 3-4-3 or 3-4-2-1, with Son Heung-min and Lee Kang-in as the creative outlets wide of a central striker (likely Cho Gue-sung for his hold-up play). Hwang In-beom and Paik Seung-ho form a balanced midfield pivot, while Kim Min-jae anchors the back three. Czechia, under similar tactical trends, deploy a 3-4-2-1 with Souček and Darida as the double pivot, Schick leading the line, and Hložek/Provod as the attacking midfielders. Coufal and Jurásek provide width at wing-back. Both teams will be cautious early in a World Cup group, but Korea's home-continent advantage and pace on transitions give them a slight edge in a tight match. Score prediction: South Korea 1-0 Czechia.
Mexico, as co-hosts in front of 83,000 at the Azteca, will control possession from the opening whistle. Javier Aguirre's settled 4-3-3 relies on Edson Álvarez as the deep pivot, with Luis Chávez and Orbelín Pineda as the interior midfielders providing creativity. Up front, Santiago Giménez leads the line, flanked by the pace of César Huerta and Roberto Alvarado. South Africa will sit in a compact 4-3-3 and look to counter through Lyle Foster and Relebohile Mofokeng's speed. Ronwen Williams starts in goal, with Teboho Mokoena and Thalente Mbatha anchoring midfield. Themba Zwane provides the creative spark behind Foster.
