GolVolt Preview

Iran enters this Group G clash as the clear favorite to secure three points against New Zealand. With model probabilities placing a home victory at 56.2 percent, the momentum sits firmly with the hosts as they kick off their campaign. While the odds suggest a challenging night for the visitors, who are priced at 5.25 to pull off an upset, the narrow split in both the over-under and both-teams-to-score projections points toward a highly competitive and unpredictable encounter on the pitch.
