Day 13 is the pick of the week for variety: a true three-way coin-flip in Norway vs Senegal, two must-win games for Algeria and Croatia, and England and Portugal both heavily fancied to finish their group business in style. With qualification on the line across these fixtures, approach and motivation shape every price.

The standout angles avoid the short favourites and target the markets that fit each game - Both Teams To Score in the open Norway-Senegal tie, a chasing favourite in Croatia, and an England handicap. All odds are from 1xBet and the three best plays combine for a 4.82 Best Combo.

Top Picks for World Cup Day 13 | June 23

Norway vs Senegal

Both Teams To Score - Yes (1.71)

BTTS Yes is the play in the day's only true three-way market, with prices between 2.42 and 3.54 reflecting how evenly matched these attacking sides are. Norway carry a serious goal threat with Erling Haaland and Martin Odegaard both impressing, while Senegal will need to chase after a defeat in their opening group game, leaving space at the back. Two front-loaded teams who both need a result is the ideal BTTS set-up, with Over 2.5 the natural backup.

🗸 Long Shot: Haaland to score 2+ goals @ 4.50
🗸 Extra Tip: Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.96

Jordan vs Algeria

Algeria to Win (1.62)

Algeria to win is backed on motivation as much as quality: after a tough opener they realistically need maximum points here, and a must-win favourite at 1.62 against a Jordan side short on tournament pedigree is solid. Algeria have the individual class to break down a packed defence, though Jordan will sit deep and make them work. If you want a bigger return the -1.5 handicap is the upgrade, while Over 2.5 covers an Algeria side forced to push.

🗸 Long Shot: Algeria to win 3-0 (correct score) @ 9.00
🗸 Extra Tip: Algeria -1.5 Asian Handicap @ 2.66

Portugal vs Uzbekistan

Over 2.5 Goals (1.60)

Over 2.5 is the cleanest way to back a dominant Portugal at 1.21 without taking the no-value win price, and 1.60 reflects how strongly they are fancied to score freely. Portugal's attacking depth should overwhelm an Uzbekistan side that will struggle to keep the ball, and even a couple of Portugal goals plus a consolation gets this home. The -1.5 handicap is the more aggressive route to the same outcome.

🗸 Long Shot: Portugal to win 4-0 (correct score) @ 9.00
🗸 Extra Tip: Portugal -1.5 Asian Handicap @ 1.68

England vs Ghana

England -1.5 Asian Handicap (1.74)

The -1.5 handicap is the value angle on an England side that has been excellent in attack and is priced at just 1.26 to win. England looked strong once they got going against Croatia (4-2), so have a good platform to build on, and Ghana will have to open up if they still need a result. A two-goal England win is well within range, with Over 2.5 the lower-risk alternative.

🗸 Long Shot: England to win 3-0 (correct score) @ 7.00
🗸 Extra Tip: Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.70

Panama vs Croatia

Croatia to Win (1.56)

Croatia to win is the motivation play: after defeat in their previous Group L game they must win to keep qualification in their own hands, and a chasing favourite at 1.56 is fair against a Panama side likely to be eliminated. Croatia's midfield control should eventually unlock a deep Panama block, even if patience is required. The -1.5 handicap and Over 2.5 are the alternatives if you expect Croatia to push hard for a margin.

🗸 Long Shot: Croatia to win 3-1 (correct score) @ 10.00
🗸 Extra Tip: Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.98
