Our best bet for USA vs Belgium is Both Teams to Score: Yes at -190 (BetMGM) / -196 (FanDuel).
The United States have scored 12 goals in their last six international matches. They’re averaging 2.0 goals per game during that run. Mauricio Pochettino’s team have demonstrated attacking sharpness through players such as Christian Pulisic and Folarin Balogun.
The latter arrived in excellent club form after scoring four goals in February for Monaco and five in his last six club matches. Their attacking approach has often relied on high-tempo transitions and wide overloads created by their wingers.
Belgium also bring significant firepower despite injuries to key players such as Romelu Lukaku. The Red Devils have scored 24 goals in their last six competitive fixtures. This includes a 7-0 demolition of Liechtenstein and a 4-2 comeback win against Wales during World Cup qualifying. Belgium star midfielder Kevin De Bruyne scored six goals for Belgium in 2025.
Our pick: Belgium to Win at +125 (BetMGM) / +120 (FanDuel)
The Red Devils have won each of their last three meetings with the United States. It includes the famous 2-1 extra-time win in the 2014 World Cup. Belgium have also been consistently competitive under Rudi Garcia. Since his appointment in early 2025, the team has suffered only one defeat.
It indicates tactical stability and improved results. Their ability to control matches through possession and midfield creativity often gives them an edge against teams that rely heavily on transitions. The United States enter the match with momentum.
They have won four of their last six internationals, including the 5-1 win over Uruguay. However, injuries could weaken their defensive structure. Key absences such as Tyler Adams and several defensive players may force tactical adjustments and experimentation.

Total Goals Over 1.5 (-590) + Both Teams to Score: Yes (-196) + Belgium to Win (+120)
The United States have seen over 1.5 goals in 100% of their last six matches, while Belgium’s recent qualifying matches frequently produced multiple goals as well. Adding BTTS captures the scoring capabilities of both teams.
Especially given the offensive threats of players like Pulisic and Balogun for the United States, alongside Belgium’s creative engine led by De Bruyne. Belgium to win completes the builder based on their stronger head-to-head record and slightly deeper squad.
Friendly matches often produce more open play due to experimentation and frequent substitutions. The United States have been particularly effective offensively in recent matches, scoring multiple goals in several of their last outings.
