USA vs Wales Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 21st November 2022

USA and Wales kick off their World Cup campaign, when they face off in the first round this coming Monday at Ahmed bin Ali Stadium.

We are entering the first round of the World Cup group stage with both USA and Wales hoping this in only the first of many matches in the coming month. USA sit as number 16, while Wales enter their match this coming Monday as number 19 in the FIFA world ranking.

Whilst outsiders to go beyond the group, USA will, of course, be looking to cause a surprise and grab a place in the knock-out round. Seeing them go even further, though, would be a serious surprise.

Whilst outsiders to top their group Wales still seem to have a decent opportunity to at least qualify for the knock-out stage. Though a tough group, we certainly shouldn't count them out.
