Canada vs. Bosnia & Herzegovina Preview
Canada opens the World Cup this Friday against Bosnia & Herzegovina. One of the hosts is still unsure about Alphonso Davies’ fitness, but the oddsmakers still see them as favorites in this one.

Canada Stats & Team News
Davies is still unsure about the World Cup opening, and that’s what troubles Jesse Marsch and the Canadian soccer community. Bayern’s winger, and one of the most potent wingers in the world, has a hamstring injury sustained in the UCL semis.
Canada’s games are inefficient, and only one of the previous 10 Les Rouges games ended with over 2.5 goals. Unlike in the previous World Cup, when this nation played open, offensive-minded football, things are completely different now.
Likely Lineup: Crepeau; Johnston, Cornelius, Bombito, Laryea; Buchanan, Eustaquio, Kone, Millar; J. David, Larin
Bosnia & Herzegovina Stats & Team News
When it comes to scoring and goals, Bosnia’s games usually include hits on both ends. Just one game in the last 10 didn’t end with both teams netting, though overall, this team has had inefficient matches in the recent past.
Last 5 all saw under 2.5 goals, and all but the one friendly against Panama carried high stakes. Therefore, the Dragons, as the fans call them, know to be rigid and defensive-minded in important games.
Likely Lineup: Vasilj; Kolasinac, Katic, Hadzikadunic, Mujakic; Alajbegovic, Hadziahmetovic, Tahirovic, Bajraktarevic Tabakovic; Dzeko

These nations never played before.
Canada vs. Bosnia & Herzegovina Picks
Many underestimate Bosnia & Herzegovina. They don’t have stars, but are a very good team, resilient with a fighting spirit. Sure, the Canadians are favorites, but if Davies isn’t on the field, the hosts won’t win. In that case, we pick a double chance – draw or Bosnia.
