Analysis
USA is coming into this match playing in good form recently and they have been trending to the over in their matches as well. They have won 2 of their last 3 matches and they have gone over 2.5 goals in their last 3 straight as well as 7 of their last 8 matches. Their attack has been great in these with 2+ goals scored in 2 of their last 3 as well as 6 of their last 8 matches, but their defense has not been great in these as they have allowed 2+ goals in 4 of their last 5 matches and they have not kept a clean sheet in their last 9 straight matches either. They are coming off of a 4-1 win against Paraguay in their last match and they were dominant in that match, jumping all over Paraguay right away, and they are going to be pushing hard for the win in this match as they can punch their ticket to the next round with a win. They are going up against an Australia side that has not been trending to the over recently, but they have been in good form with 3 wins in their last 5 matches. They are coming off of a 2-0 win against Turkiye in their last match, but they got dominated by Turkiye in that match and were outshot by a lot. Turkiye could not find the net, but they had plenty of chances to and USA has the quality in their attack to finish those big chances. Australia is not going to keep this USA attack out of their net, but USA has also been very vulnerable to conceding goals and Australia is a scrappy team that will find the net here as well. Between these two sides, there will be enough goals in this match to push it over 2.5 goals. FIFA World Cup: USA/Australia over 2.5 goals, Rot. 225345
