    Consistency is an issue for Mexico. One time they can be world beater, next time they will fold like minnows. If I were you, I would not bet on this game. Yes, they played great football so far. Even after 6 pts from 2 games, I do think Germany and Sweden are front-runners for R16.

    If it isn't Mexico, I sure hope it is a draw. I took the shot in the two way moneyline, I'll save the three way lines for these three...

    Its very unlikely for Mexico to finish second. They either win the group or are eliminated.

    I wasnt aware that Brazil had already won the Group. A loss to Serbia could see them going home today , and the Swiss are tied for 1st and only 1 goal back in differential.

    It is possible though, so that's why they are going to get this done today and not have to worry about goal differences and cards etc

    Sweden's defense should have all sorts of problem today vs the quick attack of Mexico, especially with Hirving Lonzano (left wing) and Javier Hernandenz causing all sorts of troubles for them. Sweden's defense consists of players with height, I think height-wise Sweden have the tallest denfenders average-wise from all teams. Mexico would be good adviced to keep the ball down low and try to come with high crosses through the air because in that area Sweden definitely has the advantage.

    Mexico played leathal in their first two games when it comes to counter-attacking, they can really quickly swtich from defense to offense like we saw against Germany but Mexico missed a lot of chances vs Germany and the Germans were lucky to not lose by a higher scoreline.
    I don't see this happening here today since Sweden has to go for the win, this game is basically a final match for them, Mexico will not go out all attack in the first minute, they will wait for their chance and try to strike first.

    All in all I favor Mexico but for those who are affraid of a draw better pick the Mexico win Draw No Bet option then you get at least a push in case of a draw.

    Not saying Sweden has a bad defense, read the full text. Sweden relied on their defensive approach in the first two games but they have to this abord today because they have to attack and open up, they lack firepower in strikers up front. Sweden needs to go on the attack this will allow Mexico plenty of space to counter attack, Mexico has the pace and players to punish Sweden for this therefore I meant Sweden's defense will have all sorts of problem today vs Mexico.

    I honestly can't see Mexico shutting down like Iran does in their defensive approach.

    Soccer is just like baseball these days.

    Anyone can beat one another.

    The majority of soccer players are pretty close to having the same skill level.

    There's only one country who has elite athletes to dominate the sport if they chose to commit to it.

    They did.

    But as I wrote it was highly unlikely. The only way it could happen was if they lost to sweden, and then germany lost points against Korea. Odds of that was about 10-1. But yeah it did happen.
