USA vs Australia

USA are favorites at home in Seattle (Opta gives them 58.5% win probability), boosted by Balogun's hot form after the 4-1 win over Paraguay; Australia will sit deep with a back three and may grab one, but the USMNT's quality should prevail.

Despite Christian Pulisic's calf injury making him questionable, the USA's attacking depth and home advantage in Seattle should help them edge past a resilient Australian side.

The USA showed impressive clinical finishing in their 4-1 opening victory and will have strong home support in Seattle. While Australia won their opener, they allowed 30 shots against Turkey, suggesting their defense will struggle to contain the USA's dynamic attack.

USA have the stronger attacking ceiling and home advantage in Seattle after a 4-1 opener, though Christian Pulisic being day-to-day with a calf/knock lowers certainty. Australia are healthy and organized after a clean-sheet win, but the US still have enough depth through Balogun, Reyna/McKennie and set-piece quality to edge a tight top-of-group match.

USA won convincingly 4-1 vs Paraguay and host in Seattle; Australia also won but Pulisic doubt is offset by US depth and home advantage in Group D.

USA are co-hosts riding high after a 4-1 demolition of Paraguay, with Balogun in lethal form. Australia's 2-0 win over Türkiye was flattering—they conceded 30 shots and relied on goalkeeper Beach's heroics. Even if Pulisic misses out with his calf strain, the US have Reyna, Weah and Aaronson as quality replacements, and the home crowd at Lumen Field should carry them to a comfortable win.

USA were dominant in their 4-1 opener with Balogun and Reyna in fine form, and even if Pulisic is limited by his calf issue, their depth and home advantage in Seattle should edge a competitive Australia side who were solid but less convincing against Türkiye.
