1️⃣ USA v Germany
Score Prediction: USA 1-2 Germany
Both sides continue their preparations for the World Cup, with the pressure mounting on the USA as the task of hosting the world's best looms large. They've lined up a challenging friendly against Germany in Chicago and will be hoping to inspire some confidence in their large home crowd. Equally, pressure rests on the Germans, despite their illustrious history; their World Cup performances since their famous win have been subpar, and disappointment at the Euros has led to change and a youthful squad.
The USA picked up an impressive win against a full-strength Senegal side, with their attacking stars coming out in full force to score three, including goals from Christian Pulisic, Folarin Balogun and Sergino Dest. The overall quality of their squad has improved significantly since they last featured on the world stage, and they can certainly provide Germany with quite a test and are unlikely to go down without a fight here.
Germany cruised to a 4-0 win over Finland, extending an impressive winning run to eight, including a thrilling 4-3 win over Switzerland back in March, potentially the standout in terms of the quality of opponents. Despite their strong form, in fixtures against teams of similar quality to the USA, they were far from comfortable in victory, requiring 88th and 85th-minute winners to take down Ghana and Switzerland, and will likely be vulnerable to the USA's attacking quality. Their overall quality should be enough, but it would be no shock to see the USA put up a fight at Soldier Field.
2️⃣ Bolivia v Scotland
Score Prediction: Bolivia 1-3 Scotland
The Tartan Army descend on America as their long-awaited journey begins with a preparation fixture against Bolivia, who will not be featuring in the World Cup. Scotland ran out easy winners in their opening friendly against Curacao, despite an early scare when the visitors took the lead before a man was dismissed.
There will be a number of factors for Scotland to adjust to ahead of this fixture, with grumblings across international camps about poor pitch quality and a tough climate to contend with. However, should Scotland get up to speed, they should possess far too much quality for a Bolivia side that failed to beat Iraq in their World Cup play-off. However, Scotland does seem to have an annoying tendency to concede first, conceding first in four of their last five fixtures, and both teams scoring in five of their last seven. It would be no surprise to see Scotland go one-nil down before their quality allows them to overpower their opponents.
Bolivia have only won three of their last 10 fixtures in all competitions, despite sneaking through in 7th place in the South American Qualifiers. Bolivia possess some impressive young talent, and this may be a building point as they look forward to competing at future competitions.
3️⃣ England v New Zealand
Score Prediction: England 2-0 New Zealand.
Following a disappointing pair of friendlies in March, the bookies' third-favourites for the World Cup get their preparation underway, facing a fellow participant in New Zealand. This will represent the first outing of Thomas Tuchel's hotly debated 26-man squad (plus Alex Scott), and following the disappointments of March, there will be an expectation that England should walk over this New Zealand side.
England have long been hard to judge under Tuchel; the qualifying campaign was flawless. With Jordan Pickford not conceding a single goal, yet despite complaints and concerns persisted, as perhaps to be expected given the lofty expectations. Fixtures against Uruguay and Japan were extremely disappointing off the back of the aforementioned qualifying campaign, and given England's record in friendlies under Tuchel of one win, one draw and two losses, it would be hard to justify a high-scoring England win here, especially considering seven of their last eight fixtures have seen under 2.5 goals.
New Zealand's form, however, makes it almost impossible to picture anything but an England win here, having won just one of their last 10 fixtures in all competitions, including a 4-0 loss to Haiti, in which they shipped 3.34 xG and failed to score despite generating 1.41 xG. Despite the likes of Chris Wood and the "legendary" Tim Payne, New Zealand will likely have little to offer against a resolute English defence and are rightfully priced at 16/1 to win here. Many will expect a drubbing here, and with good reason, but England's lacklustre goalscoring form and friendly record pushes me towards a comfortable 2-0 win for the Three Lions.
4️⃣ Brazil v Egypt
Score Prediction: Brazil 3-1 Egypt
This looks like a well booked preparatory match for both sides, as Carlo Ancelotti's men take on Mohamed Salah and Egypt in their last friendly before the tournament kicks off. Brazil have been quite an unpredictable side under Ancelotti; however, a dominant 6-2 victory over World Cup participants Panama shows they may have taken a step forward at the right time, especially considering the strength of their group. Egypt will go into the World Cup with some confidence, as their group looks relatively manageable for a side that reached the Africa Cup of Nations semi-final.
Brazil have been goal-happy as of late, scoring nine goals across their last two fixtures, including a strong 3-1 win over Croatia. Despite being prolific in front of goal, they have been disappointing in defending their own, keeping just the one clean sheet in their last six and shipping nine in that same run of fixtures. Vinicius Junior is doubtful to feature in this one, so Matheus Cunha, Igor Thiago and Raphina will likely be relied upon to provide the goals here, but in a squad packed with quality, expect goals from anywhere with Brazil.
Egypt will be no pushovers for the five-time World Cup winners, having held Spain to a 0-0 draw in March and dispatched of Russia and Saudi Arabia to create a three-game unbeaten run ahead of this testing fixture, whilst their defence has been resolute, conceding in none of their last four, Brazil's run of over 2.5 goals in five of their last seven and both teams scoring in five of their last six, likely shape this game to feature some goals from both sides.
5️⃣ Denmark v Ukraine
Score Prediction: Denmark 2-1 Ukraine
Perhaps the toughest of the six on offer this weekend to predict, neither side will be featuring in the World Cup, creating unpredictable lineups and little to no stakes for this fixture.
Denmark have the stronger squad on paper and were perhaps a bit of a let-down in failing to qualify for a 48-team World Cup. Their 0-0 draw with DR Congo recently doesn't inspire confidence, but the likes of Rasmus Hojlund, Patrick Dorgu, Matias Jensen and Christian Eriksen give Denmark favouritism in this fixture, and they will likely oblige here. Denmark has seen over 2.5 goals in six of their last eight fixtures and certainly has the firepower to add a few here.
Ukraine's World Cup dreams were ended by a Viktor Gyokeres hat-trick, but they have bounced back since with wins over Poland and Albania, showing their resilience in the face of that setback. A squad featuring the likes of Everton's Vitaliy Mykolenko, Benfica's Anatoliy Trubin and Girona's Viktor Tsygankov are more than capable of providing Denmark with a challenge in what is likely to be a close affair.
6️⃣ Morocco v Norway
Score Prediction: Morocco 1-1 Norway
Perhaps the standout of this list of fixtures, featuring two of the World Cup's "Dark Horses" for many and two squads full of household names. This is a fixture that will likely prove informative as you look ahead to your World Cup predictions, and certainly one to keep an eye on.
Erling Haaland did not feature in Norway's 3-1 win over Sweden, and it is uncertain whether he will line up here this weekend. However, despite Haaland's incredible quality, Norway are no one-man show. They have lost just one of their last 15 fixtures, including two drubbings of Italy. With or without Erling Haaland, they will be competitive here against one of Africa's finest.
Morocco is technically unbeaten in their last 28 games, counting the 3-0 awarded victory over Senegal on paper. Despite that controversy, they still remain a formidable side who have started their preparations for the World Cup with 4-0 and 5-0 victories, without their star man Achraf Hakimi. It is incredibly difficult to put their form into context, and this fixture with Norway will go a long way in cementing their position as Dark Horses.
