World Cup Tips: 2, July
USA vs Bosnia & Herzegovina
USA -1.5 Asian Handicap (2.10)
At 1.40 on the moneyline there is no value backing the USA outright, so the 1xBet -1.5 Asian Handicap at 2.10 is the smarter route into a clear favourite. Mauricio Pochettino's side topped Group D by beating Paraguay and Australia and carry home advantage in Santa Clara, while Bosnia are in the knockouts for the first time in their history after squeezing through third in their group. A two-goal winning margin is well within reach given the gulf in squad depth, and if you want extra cover the +0 line shortens the risk.
🗸 Long Shot: USA to win 3-0 (correct score) @ 9.00
🗸 Extra Tip: Over 1.5 total goals @ 1.22
Spain vs Austria
Over 2.5 Total Goals (1.86)
The pick here is the 1xBet Over 2.5 goals line at 1.86, built on Spain's relentless attack against an Austria side that must eventually come out and chase the game. Luis de la Fuente's group winners have Lamine Yamal and Fabian Ruiz pulling the strings, and there is a boost in waiting with Nico Williams and Yeremy Pino pushing to return from injury for the knockouts. Rangnick's Austria showed in a wild 3-3 draw with Algeria that they will trade blows rather than sit deep, which suits a higher-scoring game. If you prefer a margin play, Spain -1.5 at 1.96 is the complementary angle.
🗸 Long Shot: Spain to win 3-1 (correct score) @ 9.50
🗸 Extra Tip: Spain -1.5 Asian Handicap @ 1.96
Portugal vs Croatia
Both Teams To Score - No (1.83)
This is the tie of the night and the value sits on the 1xBet Both Teams To Score - No at 1.83, with one side likely to be shut out in a cagey knockout. Croatia remain tactically disciplined and well-drilled with Luka Modric marshalling midfield, while Portugal carry the defensive nous to keep a clean sheet when they need to in a one-off game. Knockout football against evenly matched opposition tends to be cautious early, and a single goal could settle it either way. The aligned Under 2.5 goals at 1.77 is the natural backup if you want a second low-scoring angle.
🗸 Long Shot: Portugal to win 1-0 (correct score) @ 7.00
🗸 Extra Tip: Under 2.5 total goals @ 1.77
