In Group B, Canada will face Bosnia & Herzegovina at 2:00 AM on June 13. This is an important match in the race for a ticket to the next round, as Switzerland and Qatar are also present in the group.
Home advantage helps Canada to be rated slightly higher. Coach Jesse Marsch's team possesses many notable factors such as Jonathan David, Cyle Larin and Tajon Buchanan. The North American team also has a positive record when they have only lost 1 in their last 10 home matches.
However, Bosnia & Herzegovina is not an easy opponent to subdue. The European representative passed the difficult play-off round to win a ticket to the World Cup and only lost 1 in the last 10 matches in 90 minutes of official play.
In Group D, the US team will face Paraguay at home in Los Angeles. Coach Mauricio Pochettino's team aims for victory to create an advantage against opponents in the same group, Australia and Turkey.
The US entered the tournament with careful preparation and the goal of repeating the achievement in the knockout round. Meanwhile, Paraguay returned to the World Cup after 16 years, bringing a pragmatic playing style and the spirit of a team that is not under much pressure. This confrontation is predicted to be tight and unpredictable.
