World Cup 2026 · Day 16

Best Bets for World Cup Day 16

Day 16 wraps up the group stage with France, Spain and Belgium all in action and a mouthwatering Uruguay v Spain clash in the early hours. I’ve gone back through the earlier results and weighed up who deserved their result before settling on these. Every tip is available with bet365 and tapping any slip loads the legs straight into your bet slip.

Group I Fri 26 June · 5:00pm UK · ITV1
Norway
VS
France
MetLife Stadium, New York New Jersey
Bet Builder2/1Add to Slip
France to win
Over 2.5 goals
Kylian Mbappe to score
France have the deepest squad in the tournament and should have too much for Norway even in a game where both may already be through, so the win is the anchor. With the attacking talent on show I expect goals, so over 2.5 fits, and Mbappe is simply too good not to be on the scoresheet against most defences. 2/1 with bet365 is a strong price on a France side I expect to win in style.

Senegal
VS

Gillette Stadium, Boston
Bet Builder11/5Add to Slip
Senegal to win
Over 2.5 goals
Senegal first to 5 corners
Merchas Doski 1+ fouls
Senegal need the points and have far too much for Iraq, so the win is the banker and I expect them to push hard for goals, hence over 2.5. With Senegal dominating the ball I have them first to 5 corners too, and Doski has a torrid night defending ahead of him so a foul is well within range. 11/5 with bet365 is a tidy price on a Senegal side that has to go for it.

Group H Fri 26 June · 8:00pm UK · ITV1
Cape Verde
VS
Saudi Arabia
Hard Rock Stadium, Miami
Bet Builder3/1Add to Slip
Over 1.5 goals
2+ cards each team
Two sides who may have it all to do here, and with both likely to chase the game I expect enough for over 1.5 goals. This kind of must not lose contest tends to get stretched and niggly late on, so 2+ cards for each team fits the way I see it playing out. 3/1 with bet365 is a fair price on an open, competitive game.

Group G Fri 26 June · 8:00pm UK · BBC One
New Zealand
VS
Belgium
SoFi Stadium, Los Angeles
Bet Builder6/4Add to Slip
Belgium to win
Over 2.5 goals
2+ New Zealand cards
Belgium have far too much quality for New Zealand and should win this comfortably, so the win is the anchor and I expect them to rack up the goals, hence over 2.5. A New Zealand side chasing the ball for long spells tends to pick up bookings, so 2+ cards for them is in play. 6/4 with bet365 is a fair price on a Belgium side that should be out of sight.

Group H Sat 27 June · 1:00am UK · ITV1
Uruguay
VS
Spain
Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Atlanta
Bet Builder15/4Add to Slip
Spain to win
Under 3.5 goals
Mikel Oyarzabal to score
A heavyweight clash and I lean towards the European champions, who have looked the more complete side, so Spain to win is the anchor. Two good defences should mean a controlled game rather than a shootout, so under 3.5 fits. Oyarzabal has been in great form and gets the nod to score. 15/4 with bet365 is a tasty price on a Spain side I rate to edge a big game. One for the night owls at 1am.

Group G Sat 27 June · 1:00am UK · BBC One
Egypt
VS
Iran
Lumen Field, Seattle
Bet Builder13/5Add to Slip
Egypt win or draw
Over 1.5 goals
Mehdi Taremi 1+ shot on target
One for the night owls at 1am, but Egypt have the better individuals and in a game both will fancy I am happy to take the win or draw safety net. Both carry a threat so over 1.5 goals is in play, and Taremi is Iran’s main man and a real handful, so 1+ shot on target for him makes sense. 13/5 with bet365 is good value on a competitive clash.

How we pick our World Cup bet builders

Each bet builder is built around angles we actually trust, not just long odds for the sake of it. That means team form, player shots on target and foul numbers, corner counts, referee card averages and how we expect the game to play out. We’d rather give you a 4/1 builder with four legs that all make sense than a 50/1 lottery ticket.

The bet builder market coverage is the deepest out there, with player shots, cards, corners and combos available on all 104 games, and their price boosts during the tournament are usually worth a look.
