Betting matches like this can be tough, as we know Germany will win. It&#8217;s just a question of how many goals the team scores and if it gets lazy defensively late and allows something easy when the score is 4-0 or so. I\u2019ll shoot for a few things here, so follow along. I&#8217;ll wager on Nick Woltemade anytime goal, Nico Schlotterbeck anytime goal and Over 7.5 corners for Germany. It looks like Julian Nagelsmann has finally found the correct role for Woltemade and Schlotterbeck is always a danger in the air on set pieces. Germany should have all the ball and, with constant pressure on Cura\u00e7ao, should accumulate a ton of corners.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"color:var(--color-text-primary);font-family:inherit;font-size:16px;font-weight:700;letter-spacing:0em;line-height:1.09;margin:0;width:auto\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"ff-h fs-16 lh-1pt6 mg-b-15 article-content\" data-v-a2155f14><strong>The Netherlands vs. Japan\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span>Denzel Dumfries and the Netherlands will rely on the success of their defense in the group stage (Getty Images).<\/span> <!--&gt;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"ff-h fs-16 lh-1pt6 mg-b-15 article-content\" data-v-a2155f14>The Netherlands' defense is the strength of its team, with players like Virgil van Djik, Denzel Dumfries and others. However, it can have trouble scoring at times\u00a0and that might be the case here against a feisty Japanese side that isn\u2019t afraid to be the aggressor and will keep pressure on the Netherlands. I give Japan a good chance at getting at least a draw out of this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"ff-h fs-16 lh-1pt6 mg-b-15 article-content\" data-v-a2155f14><strong>Ivory Coast vs. Ecuador\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span>The Ivory Coast team could be the dark horse of the group stage (Getty Images).<\/span> --><\/p>\n<p class=\"ff-h fs-16 lh-1pt6 mg-b-15 article-content\" data-v-a2155f14>I\u2019m so intrigued by this matchup. I think the Ivory Coast has real dark-horse potential after running through qualifying without allowing a goal. It has a great combo of youth up front and experience in midfield and defense. Can the team generate scoring chances against an Ecuador side that finished second behind Argentina in qualifying and conceded just five goals? But it also offers next to nothing in the attack. This one has rock fight written all over it. Expect a low-scoring game \u2014 likely 0-0 half \u2014 and then one of the Ivory Coast\u2019s young attackers like Guessand, Diamonde or Diallo will have a chance to give the Elephants all three points in the second half.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"ff-h fs-16 lh-1pt6 mg-b-15 article-content\" data-v-a2155f14><strong>Sweden vs. Tunisia\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span>Alexander Isak hopes to lead Sweden to a win over Tunisia (Getty Images).<\/span> <!--&gt;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"ff-h fs-16 lh-1pt6 mg-b-15 article-content\" data-v-a2155f14>People know the names Alexander Isak and Victor Gyorkeres from watching the English Premier League, but I\u2019m not sure the duo has its way here. Tunisia is a buttoned-up defensive machine. It didn't allow a goal in qualifying and will be quite content to absorb pressure and keep everyone behind the ball. I\u2019ll take a rare stab at the nil-nil.<\/p>\n\n--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>POPULAR SEARCHES BROWSE BY &#8220;Bear Bets&#8221; are real wagers that Chris &#8220;The Bear&#8221; Fallica is actually making.
