The hosts carry a nation's hopes into Seattle, but the USA reach the last 16 with a problem: top scorer Folarin Balogun was sent off against Bosnia and is suspended for this one. Belgium are a wounded favourite too, with Kevin De Bruyne yet to complete 90 minutes at this World Cup and Romelu Lukaku in and out of the side. Two blunted attacks in a tense knockout points one way.

We are backing Under 2.5 Goals at 1xBet: the USA lose their sharpest finisher, Belgium have not been fluent, and knockout football tightens things further. That Under closes out our weekend Best Combo at 6.97, joining a BTTS call in Brazil vs Norway and a Mexico value side against England. All odds below are from 1xBet.

Top Picks for World Cup Day 27 | July 7

USA vs Belgium

Under 2.5 Goals (2.08)

Under 2.5 Goals is the lead because both attacks are compromised: the USA are without suspended top scorer Folarin Balogun after his red card against Bosnia, and Belgium's chief creator Kevin De Bruyne, now 35, has not lasted 90 minutes at the tournament. The h2h is essentially a pick'em (USA 2.70, Belgium 2.78), which usually signals a cagey, low-event game, and knockout stakes rarely open matches up. Trossard remains Belgium's most reliable threat, so if you fancy a goal the safer complementary angle is under the total rather than backing a blowout.

🗸 Long Shot: Correct Score 1-0 Belgium @ 8.50
🗸 Extra Tip: Both Teams To Score - No @ 2.26
