| Sport | Game Selection | Game Time |
|---|---|---|
| WCUP | (225269) Egypt at (225270) Belgium: Total | 3:00pm EDT - Jun 15/2026 |
The PLAY: Total Over 2.5 (100)
Perhaps flying a bit under the radar will serve Belgium well at this World Cup. After storming thru the qualifiers, recent friendlies reminded of real potency, with some new blood (especially EPL campaigners Jérémy Doku and Leandro Trossard) spicing up an attack still featuring some savvy vets like midfield pilot Kevin De Bruyne.
Egypt will have to step up the pace after advancing thru the CAF qualifiers, but with Mo Salah eager to impress in his WC debut after missing 2018 thru injury, and Man City’s Omar Marmoush emerging as a threat, the Pharaohs can likely give chase. Play Belgium-Egypt “Over” (at Seattle)
| Sport | Game Selection | Game Time |
|---|---|---|
| WCUP | (225317) Tunisia at (225318) Sweden: Total | 10:00pm EDT - Jun 14/2026 |
The PLAY: Total Under 2.5 (-140)
Altitude isn’t an issue as much at Monterrey as it is in Mexico City and Guadalajara. Yet heat and humidity (both expected in the mid 80s for Sunday night) could certainly play a part in slowing the proceedings as modern-looking BBVA Stadium has no air conditioning with its open roof.
Even with proper conditions we don’t expect a goal-fest in any matchup involving Tunisia, which didn’t concede in nine qualifiers and gladly puts 11 behind the ball. Meanwhile, can Graham Potter get Alexander Isak and Viktor Gyokores on the same page for Sweden after their pairing up front mostly misfired before Isak’s injury last fall? Play Sweden-Tunisia “Under” (at Monterrey)

With a background in play-by-play work and sports information while in college, Bruce joined TGS in 1981 when hired by the legendary Mort Olshan. He learned the business by working alongside Mort and the other TGS handicappers and continues at TGS, where he has worn many hats over the years. Not only is Bruce the Executive Editor at TGS, he's also the Editor of Goldsheet.com and The Gold Sheet EXTRA!!! (a publication he helped launch in 1982), as well as serving as Editor-in-Chief of European Soccer Weekly.
