Brazil vs. Japan: Cunha and Vinicius Jr. lead the charge

The result could be close, but I think we'll see at least a couple of goals, with Carlo Ancelotti's side coming out on top.

Each of the Brazilians' World Cup games and the eight fixtures they played before the tournament have featured more than 1.5 goals. They could cover this market alone.

Japan's fixtures haven't been quite as prolific, but all three of their World Cup fixtures have featured two or more goals.

Cunha is no sure thing to play the full match, but he's had 2 shots on target in each of his past two while averaging just 70 minutes per contest.

Vinicius Junior has averaged 2.66 shots on target in the group stages and 2.4 per game in the three games beforehand.

With five goals in his last five games and four at the World Cup alone, and if you're looking to up the stakes, you could include Vinicius Junior as an anytime goalscorer to bring the odds up to 4.79.

Odds correct as of June 29, 2026. Recommended bets are advised to over-18s.
