Mexico kicked off the 2026 World Cup last night and now it’s over to the two other host nations. The USA and Canada will be in action across day 2 of the World Cup Finals.
The Canadians will be first to open their Group B quest against Bosnia while in the small hours of Saturday morning, night owls will be able to enjoy the USA face Paraguay in the first Group D fixture, which takes place in Los Angeles.
We have three selections in these two matches and they make up our best bets of the day.

Bet of the Day
Bosnia or draw double chance vs Canada @ 37/40
Canada’s first game against Bosnia will be highly anticipated by the home faithful, not least because they have lost all six of their previous games at the World Cup finals and will be desperate to break their duck.
However, they may not gain the victory they crave for as their challenge against Bosnia should not be underestimated.
While Canada were excused from the qualification process, Bosnia had to book their ticket the hard way as they lost just one of their eight pool games and then had to battle through playoffs against Wales and Italy, both of which went to penalties.
They have been held to five successive 90-minute draws and the double-chance option looks attractive, particularly as Canada look set to be without their skipper and star player, Bayern Munich’s Alphonso Davies.
Canada have also drawn three of their last four games, so they may be unable to secure the win.

Both teams to score, Tajon Buchanan to be shown a card & Nikola Katic to have a shot on target in Canada vs Bosnia @ SP
Both teams have scored in eight of Bosnia’s last nine games and with Canada eager to get on the front foot in their opening game, there looks a strong chance it could happen again in Toronto.
Villarreal’s Tajon Buchanan could become the focus of their attacking approach on the right wing if the option of Davies is not available on the opposite flank. But there is a decent chance he could pick up a booking as he was carded eight times in La Liga last season.
Meanwhile, Bosnia defender Nikola Katic is a big aerial threat from set pieces and, after registering six efforts on target in seven qualifiers, he could do so again.
Longshot of the Day
Folarin Balogun to score first in USA v Paraguay @ 9/2
The greatest expectation among the three hosts will probably be reserved for the USA, who are managed by former Tottenham and Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino.
The Argentinian looks set to put his faith in Monaco striker Folarin Balogun to lead the line and he has the pace and power to trouble Paraguay in their City of Angels opener.
Balogun netted the winner in their penultimate friendly before the tournament, a 3-2 win over Senegal in Charlotte and was also on target when they beat Paraguay in November. So have faith he can set the Stars and Stripes on their way with the opening goal in the early hours of Saturday morning.
