Best World Cup Player Props Predictions for July 6

Important:

If you intend to follow our World Cup player prop picks, we advise you to wait for the lineups to make sure the players targeted are going to start the match. We provide our tips earlier to give you enough time to prepare, but staying patient and checking the starters is pivotal for player props.

Spain vs. Portugal: Nuno Mendes to Receive a Card (+330)

Nuno Mendes is an intelligent defender who doesn’t get stupid cards, but he doesn’t shy away from making tactical fouls that could lead to a booking when required. The Portuguese wingback might be forced to play with extra aggression today, as he is about to face Lamine Yamal.

The Spanish star was slow at the start of the tournament because of an injury but is becoming a problem for opponents. Yamal was very dangerous against Austria, tormenting his defender throughout the game. His dribbling skills make him very hard to contain, and Nuno Mendes will be his direct opponent on the pitch.

Mendes is usually very steady, but we’ve seen him torched by some of the elite wingers out there. Olise toyed with him in the Champions League this season, and Yamal has the potential to do the same.

It will be a hard game for Mendes, and I won’t be surprised if he fouls Yamal a few times in an attempt to stop him. The price of +330 for the Portuguese defender to receive a card is way too high to ignore and one of the best World Cup player props today.

USA vs. Belgium: Leandro Trossard to Score or Assist (+138)

Leandro Trossard has been Belgium’s unsung hero on the road to the World Cup Last 16. The Arsenal forward scored twice in the last group game against New Zealand, following that with a crucial assist against Senegal in the knockouts.

If you watched Belgium so far, you certainly noticed how Trossard is in the heart of almost every dangerous situation. His ability to operate with limited space makes him crucial for the team, especially since Doku and De Bruyne are not at their best.

Trossard is the guy dribbling, sending dangerous balls in the box, and probing he keeper on every opportunity. I expect him to do the same against the USA, so I’m more than happy to back Trossard to deliver a goal contribution at plus odds.
