World Cup Best Bets — Monday, June 29

Brazil vs. Japan

This is going to be a fun one — likely the exact opposite of what we saw Sunday at SoFi Stadium. Japan is well organized and fearless. Its midfield can give Brazil problems. Sure, the Samurai Blue do not have a player the caliber of Vinícius Jr., but as a whole, Japan matches up very well with Brazil. At minimum, this is BTTS. If Brazil moves on, it might take more than 90 minutes to achieve that goal.

Germany vs. Paraguay

This should be a straightforward win for Germany. Paraguay shouldn’t offer much in attack and something along the lines of 2-0 Germany feels in order.

Netherlands vs. Morocco

Another banger to finish the day. This could be a quarter or semifinal with two teams of this caliber. Both had dark-horse appeal to make a deep run, but one will see its dream end here. I don’t dislike BTTS here either. For as lauded as the Dutch defense is, the Netherlands didn’t post a clean sheet in any group stage match. I would not be surprised if this one went to kicks.
