Match description
Cape Verde Islands, after a 0:0 vs Spain, deserve a significant upgrade, particularly defensively. Uruguay, after a 1:1 with Saudi Arabia, will need to press more, because another draw will complicate the group situation. Formally I tip Uruguay, but this is very close to an X scenario; Cape Verde Islands can again deploy a low block and hold 0:0 for a long time. Status: SMALL BET
