Summary
Over 2.5 goals is Jon Eimer’s top pick for South Korea vs. Czechia, the Group A match kicking off at 10 p.m. ET in Guadalajara.
South Korea supports that call after going unbeaten through 10 qualifiers, scoring 20 goals, while its last three matches at the 2022 World Cup averaged 4.33 total goals.
Czechia has also trended high-scoring: each of its last five matches cleared 2.5 goals and averaged 4.2 combined goals.
FanDuel lists South Korea at +160, Czechia at +195 and the draw at +200, with the total set at 2.5 goals.
Eimer, on a 31-13-2 soccer run in 2026, said he has three best bets on the match, including one plus-money play and one side pick he expects to surprise bettors.
