FREE PICK | Algeria/Argentina [OVER] | Good until 2.5, -125.
Argentina opens its World Cup title defense against Algeria in a matchup that feels more dangerous than it may appear on paper. Algeria has quietly assembled a talented squad filled with players capable of causing problems for elite opponents. "Veteran" Riyad Mahrez still brings creativity and experience, while Rayan Aït-Nouri, Amine Gouiri, and Ismaël Bennacer provide plenty of attacking quality across the field.
Argentina is obviously one of the favorites to lift the trophy again, but opening matches as defending champions can be tricky. There are still questions about who starts at some of the positions & what formation to play. That, plus the pressure of carrying the World Cup crown always creates tension early in the tournament. Everyone remembers how France conceded first against Australia in its opener of 2018 (after winning the trophy) before exploding for four goals and winning comfortably.
I could absolutely see a similar type of game unfolding here, with Algeria finding moments offensively before Argentina’s firepower takes over. I really like the OVER in this matchup.

Free World Cup Pick Today: Total Over 2.0 (-149)
Sweden is rightfully the favorite for this Group F match, at Monterrey Stadium, in Mexico. However, Tunisia is a capable team. Tunisia plays a disciplined, defensive style. That has helped in providing a low O/U number. In a group which includes the Netherlands and Japan, both these teams should be going all out for a win. Though the Swedes didn't play up to their potential in qualifying, they've got a talented team. They should be able to break through and score. Assuming that happens, it will open things up, as a desperate Tunisia squad tries to get level. That will either lead to the African nation scoring themselves, and/or conceding again. A 2-1 Sweden victory won't surprise. Let's go with the over.

Free World Cup Pick Today: Netherlands to Reach the Round of 16
Soccer bettors and pundits have seemingly soured on the Netherlands heading into the World Cup because the Dutch have a pretty notable reputation of falling short in major tournament settings. Well, for all intents and purposes, that's perfectly fine for the purposes of this bet. The Dutch have enjoyed success under second-term manager Ronald Koeman, going unbeaten (six wins, two draws) in World Cup qualifying. In the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, the Netherlands lost to eventual-champions Argentina in penalty kicks in the quarterfinals. In Euro 2024, the Dutch lost to England on a 90th-minute goal in the semifinals. There's nothing to be ashamed about regarding either of those results, but those shortcomings have seemingly kept expectations in the betting market at a cool temperature heading into this year's World Cup. There is a club-like feel with the Dutch squad as 15 members of the team play in the English Premier League, including several groups of teammates. Liverpool and Brighton each have a trio of players on the squad, including the defensive backbone of Virgil van Dijk and Bart Verbruggen. Navigating Group F will not be easy for the Dutch, but travel should not be an issue. The Netherlands' group stage games are in Dallas, Houston and Kansas City, which is a very comfortable route when you consider the path that some other teams are forced to take. Japan, Tunisia and Sweden will all present a challenge, but we're comfortable backing a Dutch team that hasn't lost a match in regulation since October 2024. As of May 31 Netherlands to reach the Round of 16 is available at:
