Seattle Stadium · Seattle · 69,000 seats — Lumen Field — famous for its crowd noise
Bosnia and Herzegovina enter this Group B clash as the clear favorites, with bookmakers pricing them at 1.63 to secure the victory. While their recent form has been defined by a stubborn streak of draws, including a resilient 1-1 result against Italy, they remain a difficult side to break down. Qatar arrives looking to pull an upset, despite model probabilities assigning them just a 30.25 percent chance of winning. With the outcome finely balanced, expect a tactical battle where every possession carries significant weight.
