(225409) Uzbekistan at (225410) Portugal

1:00pm EDT - Jun 23/2026

THE PLAY: Penalty Kick Awarded (+200)

Portugal vs Uzbekistan
World Cup, Tuesday, 1pm ET

Play: Penalty Kick Awarded
Odds at Time of Release: +200
Line Parameter: Line good to +150

Now I promised myself that I wouldn't touch any more Portugal games, but the hand is itchy here, as Uzbekistan have extremely good Penalty Kick numbers themselves, and the referee is averaging 1 PK every 2 games. You remember the logic from the previous game. The problem is that Portugal failed to touch the area enough to threaten a very well structured DR Congo defense, but Uzbekistan are two steps below in terms of defense. Plus, they get PKs themselves.

Uzbekistan Penalty Kicks: 14 Penalty Kicks (13 in regular Time) in their L/30 matches in all competitions

Portugal stats are insane, I don't have the time to go through them all but they did have 5 PKs For and 1 Against in 6 Qualifiers, 2 for and 1 against in the Nations League, 5 in the EURO Qualifiers, 2 in the EURO, 2 in the previous World Cup. You get the picture.

Referee Stats:

This referee gave a Penalty Kick in the Germany vs Curacao game. in 12 matches this season, 6 Penalty Kicks.

2024/25: 11 Penalty Kicks in 20 matches, 2 in 3 AFCON matches, 3 in 3 CAF Champions League
2023/24: 11 Penalty Kicks in 21 matches, 1 in 1 AFCON match
2022/23: 15 Penalty Kicks in 21 matches
Lifetime: 60 Penalty Kicks in 120 matches. That's a LOT. That's an average of 0.5 Penalty Kicks/game, and I consider referees that average 0.25-0.3/game as GOOD. This guy's stats are INSANE. I can't help it but make a small investment on the Penalty Kick here, and this is probably my last Portugal bet.

(225397) Iraq at (225398) France

5:00pm EDT - Jun 22/2026

THE PLAY: Kylian Mbappe 2+ Goals+Assists (+155)

France vs Iraq
World Cup, Monday, 5pm ET

Play: Kylian Mbappe 2+ Goals & Assists
Odds at Time of Release: +155 DraftKings
Line Parameter: Line good to +130

France -1250 favourites here, the Draw at +1000 and Iraw +2700 underdogs, with the Spread at 2.5 and the Total at 3.5. Don’t like the spread, although France can cover, slightly like the total Over 3.5 but I’ll pivot to an Mbappe player prop, basically looking for two goal contributions at +155 (2 goals, 2 assists, goal and assist). Interesting stats in his L/9 starts with France:

2 goals vs Senegal
2 goals & assist vs Ukraine
goal & assist vs Azerbaijan
goal & assist vs Iceland
goal vs Ukraine
Goal & assist vs germany
goal & assist vs Spain

2+ goal contributions in each of L/4 and in 6 of L/7 competitive matches with France. He is chasing the Golden Boot and this is probably the easiest match he’ll have in the entire tournament. Definitely worth the investment.

Take 3% on Mbappe 2+ Goals & Assists (+155 DK), line good to +130

Consultant Bio

Pavlos betting on European sports when he was in High School, back when most people his age didn't even know how to bet. After acquiring a Bachelor's Degree in International Economic Relationships and development from the Democritus University in Greece, Pavlos took a different path.

Things really took off for him in 2014 when he officially started writing predictions for US-based sites. Things picked up pretty quickly, and he has produced thousands upon thousands of match previous and predictions. He tends to venture off the beaten path, looking for hidden gems in a myriad of games you can bet on.

Single and double bets aside, Pavlos likes to play the odds as well. While some days there are safe single bets, there are other days that provide opportunities for different bets. Bets like Correct Scores, amount of Yellow Cards, Half-Time/Full-Time results, and all kinds of prop bets. Pavlos covers the following leagues: Major League Soccer (MLS), Copa America, EURO Cup, English Premier League, German Bundesliga, Spanish La Liga, Italian Serie A, French Ligue 1, Champions League, and Europa League.

The betting systems he created have seen some massive pay-outs over the years. A couple of correct scores paired together can potentially save your entire season. These are small-stake bets that cost a few units but could bring massive returns on your investment.
