GAME: 2022 World Cup Betting Odds, Picks & Predictions (Friday)
Croatia vs. Brazil (Education City Stadium, Al Rayyan; 6 p.m.)
The Croatians are not going to be an easy out for the Brazilians. They trailed the Japanese 1-0 at the half, but their confidence never wavered, as Ivan Perisic tied the game in the 55th minute. From there, the match made it all the way to a shootout, and their keeper Dominik Livakovic absolutely shut the door on the match, saving three of four strikes from the dot to secure a spot in this quarterfinal match! The Brazilians decided their match within the first 36 minutes against the South Korean squad. They scored four goals in this time and took that lead into the half, and ended up winning 4-1. This was an extremely impressive display, and it was even more impressive that they had four different goal scorers in this match.
I think Brazil advances, and while -278 is expensive for a quarterfinal, the Brazilians have been that good. If you don’t feel like paying this price, there is fantastic value in a Richarlison Goal at +150. Richarlison has had an amazing tournament, having scored a goal in every single match that Brazil has played. I think there is great value in backing him to do it once again here to propel the Brazilians into the Semis!
