Here at Pickswise we have put together a list of all of the day’s best odds boosts, which are available from PointsBet Sportsbook. We will also discuss whether or not they are worth playing. Let’s dive in.
USA to win either half – Boosted from -135 to -115 with PointsBet Sportsbook
For this prop, we will need the USA to win either half against Wales this afternoon. This is the opening group stage games for both teams and a crucial one that will likely determine who will be going through to the knockout stages. With England having already picked up 3 points against Iran, neither team can afford to lose. A draw would likely be a positive result for both sides, and it is likely that this could be a tale of two halves. The USA struggled in their warm-up games a few months ago, failing to score at all, but there is a sense of confidence around the team that they can perform well on the biggest stage. Wales on the other hand, has been in poor form recently. They lost 5 of their 6 games in the UEFA Nations League group, so they could struggle at times during this match. While there may not be an outright winner in this match, backing the USA to win 1 of the 2 halves looks to be worth a play as they attempt to get out of this group.

USA scores 1+ goal vs Wales and the San Francisco 49ers to score 24+ points vs the Arizona Cardinals – Boosted from +105 to +125 with PointsBet Sportsbook
For this prop, we will need USA to score at least 1 goal against Wales and the San Francisco 49ers will need to score at least 24 points against the Arizona Cardinals. Goals have been hard to come by for Team USA recently, as they were scoreless in both their warm-up games a few month ago. Even knowing that, asking them to score 1 goal against a shaky Wales defense looks to be worth backing. The 49ers on the other hand, are averaging 22 points per game this season, but have scored at least 24 points in 4 games this season. The Cardinals’ defense allows 25.8 points per game, therefore backing this prop looks to be worth a small play.

Christian Pulisic to score a goal – Boosted from +310 to +390 with PointsBet Sportsbook
This prop will need Christian Pulisic to score a goal against Wales in the opening group stage match for the USA. Pulisic has just 1 goal for Chelsea this season, but could be more of a threat to score for Team USA at his first World Cup. He has 21 career goals for the USA in 52 appearances and is 7th on the all-time scoring chart. If USA is awarded a penalty in this game, Pulisic may be the likely candidate to take it. For that reason, backing Pulisic to score at anytime looks to be worth a small play.
