Mauricio Pochettino's USA started the 2026 World Cup in fine fashion. The team won Group D, with three games left on the agenda. The first game of the tournament was an easy 4-1 win for USA over Paraguay, followed by a 2-0 win against Australia to seal their place in the knockout stages with one game remaining. USA lost 3-2 in their final game against Türkiye – the result only mattered if a goal was scored after the 90th minute.

Backed by loud supporters, USA will hope for an away win. As hosts of the tournament, USA will hope to entertain the crowd and progress deep into the competition.
After finishing Group B third, Bosnia and Herzegovina have qualified for the 2026 World Cup. The best third-place team advances to the Round of 32, where they will play against USA. Bosnia and Herzegovina began the tournament with a strong 1-1 result with Canada, and the draw helped Bosnia and Herzegovina qualify for the knockout stages. However, Serbia suffered a 4-1 loss to Switzerland and a 3-1 win against Qatar, and it was the latter result which ensured that Bosnia and Herzegovina qualified for the World Cup.
The result was historic as this is the first time Bosnia and Herzegovina qualify for a knockout stage. This tie will be a good opportunity to see how the team reacts in their first tournament knockout tie. Just making it here is an achievement for Bosnia and Herzegovina. They're at their second World Cup, and this marks their first time ever breaking through into the knockout stages. A double drama played out across two consecutive penalties in their World Cup play-off ties – most notably against Italy – to get them to this moment. A tough and seasoned outfit, the Bosnians know the importance of digging in when required, and they'll head to Santa Clara with nothing but hope, knowing the Americans will be the home favorites.
Not a lot of history to talk about when it comes to the United States and Bosnia and Herzegovina. In fact, this only represents their third ever meeting, and all of those games were friendly internationals. That means the sides have no competitive, or even World Cup, history to reference.
That in itself makes the upcoming fixture all the more compelling to tune in on. The US will know relatively little about their opposition, while Bosnia and Herzegovina will have no experience on which to draw from previous competitive games. It's a tie that could go either way, with the Americans enjoying the benefit of home advantage and the Bosnians proving their mettle as a tough group of underdogs. Ultimately, it will be a contest decided on the nerves and brilliance that comes with knockout football.
For the Americans, it's up to captain Christian Pulisic. The USMNT captain is an absolute weapon with his blistering speed, trickery and ability to score and will undoubtedly be the man everyone's looking to for a goal or assist. In midfield, Weston McKennie offers a huge engine and threat, while Yunus Musah and Tyler Adams will look to control the tempo of the contest, and the likes of Timothy Weah will provide pace up top, as well as other match-winning talent.
Bosnia and Herzegovina may need to rely on the brilliance of 40-year-old Edin Džeko to spark them into life. The Bosnian superstar remains one of the most lethal strikers in the world, the country's highest-ever goal-scorer and appearance maker, and the Bosnians will hope the talisman will be up to the task of producing a big moment in the World Cup knockout stage. In addition, the Bosnians may be able to rely on some up-and-coming young talent that helped them reach the knockouts with some excellent showings in the group stage.
