FIFA World Cup 2022 Round of 16 Predictions

Netherlands vs USA 

Netherlands ($2.15)

USA ($4)

Draw ($3.25)

The Netherlands were one of the only sides to progress through the group stages unbeaten and they will be looking to continue their good form against the USA. As ever, the Dutch will be putting their brand of total football against an American side that will be out to make things physical. This will be a tight one but the Netherlands should just about progress here. 

Betting tip: Netherlands to win the match ($2.15) Bet @ BlueBet

Netherlands to win 2-1

England vs Senegal

England ($1.65)

Senegal ($5.75)

Draw ($3.65)

England will be looking to progress to the last 8 seamlessly as they take on the dangerous Senegal. Heating Wales last time out should be a confidence boost for England, who carry the hopes of a nation once more in Qatar. Senegal meanwhile have impressed as the tournament has developed and they have plenty of players capable of hurting England. This will be cagey but England should have enough in the tank here.

Betting tip: England to win the match ($1.65) Bet @ BlueBet

England to win 2-0

Argentina vs Australia

Argentina ($1.5)

Australia ($8)

Draw ($4.4)

Argentina look to have gotten over their defeat to Saudi Arabia in the group stages and take on Australia in the last 16. Whilst not setting the world alight, Argentina are as dangerous as ever in any World Cup and momentum looks to be building. Australia meanwhile are well coached and are organised and they will be out to spoil the party here. This will be tight but Argentina should book their quarter final spot. 

Betting tip: Argentina to win the match ($1.5) Bet @ BlueBet

Argentina to win 2-0

France vs Poland

France ($1.5)

Poland ($8)

Draw ($4.3)

France take on Poland, as they look to get back to winning ways at this World Cup. A much changed French side fell short against Tunisia last time out, a scare they will need to take heed of. Poland meanwhile are revelling in their role of party poopers and they will fancy their chances in this one. This will be much tighter than people think but France do tend to step up when it matters most.

Betting tip: France to win the match ($1.5) Bet @ BlueBet

France to win 2-1

Croatia vs Japan

Croatia ($2.25)

Japan ($3.35)

Draw ($3.25)

Croatia take on Japan in what should be a highly entertaining encounter in the last 16. It has been a tough campaign for Croatia so far but they have dug deep to reach the knockout rounds once again. Japan meanwhile have beaten both Spain and Germany in the competition so far and they are playing without any semblance of fear. This will be tight but Japan could cause a stir once again in Qatar.

Betting tip: Japan to win the match ($3.25) Bet @ BlueBet

Japan to win 2-1

Spain vs Morocco

Spain ($1.95)

Morocco ($3.95)

Draw ($3.5)

Spain take on Morocco in what should be a fiery duel. Morocco have been one of the many surprise packages in the tournament and their unbeaten record should hold them in good stead here. Spain meanwhile slipped up against Japan, to squeeze through qualifying but that could be the reminder they need in tournament football. Morocco will make this so hard for Spain but Luis Enrique’s side should come through this test.

Betting tip: Spain to win the match ($1.95) Bet @ BlueBet

Spain to win 2-1

Portugal vs Switzerland

Portugal ($1.8)

Switzerland ($5)

Draw ($3.95)

Portugal take on Switzerland, with a place in the World Cup quarter finals at stake. Portugal were undone by South Korea last time out but topped their group in qualifying for the last 16 and they have an exciting side, packed with talent. Switzerland meanwhile overcame Serbia in a straight hit to progress and that should give them plenty of confidence here. This will be super tight but Portugal do tend to get the job done when it matters.

Betting tip: Portugal to win the match ($1.8) Bet @ BlueBet

Portugal to win 1-0

Brazil vs South Korea

Brazil ($1.44)

South Korea ($10.5)

Draw ($6.25)

Brazil are chasing a 6th World Cup and they take on South Korea in the last 16. A defeat to Cameroon last time out was a shock for Brazil but with progress already assured, it is a result they can forget quickly. South Korea meanwhile are a side on the up, beating Portugal last time out and they will revel in the role of underdog here. Brazil will be up for this one and they should have way too much in the tank for South Korea.

Betting tip: Brazil to win the match ($1.44) Bet @ BlueBet

Brazil to win 3-1
