Sparkles will be flying when USA and Bosnia and Herzegovina square off in the World Cup last 32 at Levi's Stadium. As USA have been producing excellent performances in front of home fans, our prediction points toward a 2-1 home win.
The Yanks sacrificed their 100% group-stage record with a 3-2 defeat to Turkey, but Mauricio Pochettino's decision to rotate the entire starting lineup means his key players will be fresh for this encounter. Christian Pulisic and Folarin Balogun are expected to lead the attack once again. The Americans have won six of their last ten matches, averaging 2.3 goals scored and 4.1 total goals per game, making them one of the tournament's most entertaining teams. Their 1.55 expected goals (xG) per match also reflects their attacking consistency.
Bosnia, on the other hand, secured their place in the knockout stages, but their performances have been far from convincing. Even in the 3-1 victory over Qatar, they struggled for long spells against the tournament's weakest side. Veteran striker Edin Dzeko has looked off the pace, while defender Tarik Muharemovic returns from suspension to strengthen the back line. The Balkan Dragons have managed only three wins in their last ten matches, keeping just one clean sheet, while an impressive 90% BTTS rate highlights their defensive vulnerabilities.
As USA's fresher and more talented squad should prove too strong for Bosnia, Home Win is our main betting tip for this round 32 matchup, alongside Balogun to Score and Over 2.5 goals (The Americans average 2.3 goals per game in their last ten games).
This World Cup 2026 match will be played on Thursday 2 July 2026 at 01:00.
