Teams coming off 1-1 draws in their openers meet in Group B play on Thursday as 2026 World Cup co-host Canada and 2022 World Cup host Qatar meet. The first result was a bit of a disappointment for Canada as they were heavy favorites against Bosnia and Herzegovina, though the excitement of a late Cyle Larin goal salvaged an important point and created a great memory for the Canadian fans. Qatar, meanwhile, withstood a fierce offensive attack from Switzerland to steal a point in a game they were heavy underdogs in.

Top Canada vs. Qatar predictions
After examining Qatar vs. Canada from every angle, Green is leaning Under 2.5 total goals (+106). Both offenses lacked punch in their opener. Canada did not find the score sheet until the 78th minute against Bosnia and Herzegovina. Qatar needed an own goal from Switzerland in stoppage time to get on the sheet in their opener.
Green notes that the Canadians “like to sit back and soak up pressure,” while “Qatar’s defenders have shown that they can resist wave after wave of attack.” See Green’s best bets for Canada vs. Qatar at SportsLine, and you can bet the Under at FanDuel here:
