Close One!
The soccer odds aren’t wrong, you can expect a very close contest at 974 Stadium. So close that Mexico will get the three points thanks to a 2-1 victory. El Tri won its last two first WC matches by one goal. Most recently, they started the 2018 edition on the right foot by defeating Germany 1-0.
Picks: Mexico by 1 (+330) / Both Teams to Score in the Match – Yes (-105)
Not an Easy Prey
Again, Poland will put up a good fight, especially during the first half, in which both teams tend to be a little nervous. In fact, I wouldn’t rule out that the Eagles score first, that’s why I think the first half will end up with a draw and you can take advantage of that.
Both won’t stop attacking, and with Lewandowski and Raul Jimenez on the pitch, relying on crosses would be a good plan.
Picks: Half time / Full-Time Result – Draw/Mexico (+500) / Total Corners 12-14 (+400)
More than Robert Lewandowski
We can’t talk about Poland without talking about Robert Lewandowski, who’s considered one of the best center-strikers in the world, if not the best. The thing is that he’ll be constantly pressured, leaving the door open for other players to score, and who better than Arkadiusz Milik, who’s having a great season with Juventus Wager $100 on him and you could win $800 in total.
As for Mexico, Raul Jimenez is the team’s center-striker, but Hirving Lozano is having a great season with Napoli and is much faster than Jimenez. That would be quite helpful if El Tri needs to rely on the counterattack.
Picks: First Goalscorer – Arkadiusz Milik (+700) / Anytime Goalscorer – Hirving Lozano (+350)
The Total
So, if there’s something you can expect from these two, it’s goals. They’ve met nine times and both scored in five of those games. Plus, the total has gone over 2½ goals four times. Finally, the total has gone over 2½ goals in Mexico’s last three games. The same happened in three of Poland’s last six games.
Picks: Match Result and Total Goals – Mexico and Total Over 2½ (+400.)
