Belgium to ease past New Zealand, $1.19 with goals over 2.5

Belgium at $1.19 is the call, with the model - World cup 2026 tips world cup 2026 model parking them at 63% and projecting a 1-3 scoreline in Vancouver. New Zealand have shipped goals in four of their last five and Belgium, even sleepwalking through this tournament so far, have the firepower to put this away.
