Mexico has already wrapped up Group A, but 52% of Kalshi traders are still backing the Mexicans to defeat Czechia. However, since Mexico has nothing to gain from this match, my Czechia vs. Mexico prediction highlights why I believe Czechia is being severely undervalued in what should be a low-scoring game. 

My World Cup predictions will have you all set for Wednesday's 9 p.m. ET match at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. The game will air live on FOX and Telemundo and stream on FOX One.

Mexico has been impressive in this World Cup, winning each of its first two matches and still not conceding a goal. However, because the Mexicans have played so well, they have nothing to gain by winning this match. Meanwhile, Czechia, which suffered a draw against South Africa due to a late penalty kick, needs a win to keep its World Cup hopes alive.

Both of these teams are defensive-minded, and I expect this to be another low-scoring match. With the Czech having everything to gain and likely battling against numerous Mexican backups, I'm backing them to win this outright.

Score prediction: Czechia 1, Mexico 0

💵 My best pick: No - Over 2.5 Goals (55 cents)

Mexico is yet to allow a goal, while Czechia has scored just once in each of its first two matches. And while Mexico is 2-0, the offense has scored just three goals this tournament.

Czechia has allowed three goals, but one came off a penalty, and it took South Korea 67 minutes to find the back of the net. There is no reason for Mexico to go for it in this game, and a 1-0 win for Czechia would almost certainly send them to the knockout round.

Patrik Schick, F, Czechia (22%)

It's been a tournament to forget for Schick thus far, but he still remains one of the most dangerous goalscorers on Czechia. He has scored six goals in his last 13 matches with Czechia, netting two in five matches this year. 

While he was completely irrelevant against South Korea, touching the ball just 11 times and failing to attempt a shot, he came to life against South Africa. Though he didn't score, he attempted two shots, one of which was on target, and he finished with 0.20 expected goals.

🥅 Will both teams score in Czechia vs. Mexico?

Again, Mexico has nothing to gain in this match. While the players who have yet to see meaningful playing time will want to make their mark on this World Cup, I don't believe they have the offensive talent to beat a Czechia defense that has been playing fairly well this tournament. Additionally, there's no guarantee that Czechia will score, as the offense has struggled a bit, and Mexico's defense has been outstanding.

Both teams to score (BTTS) pick: No (52 cents)
