#广场预测世界杯赢40000U 6/17 World Cup Focus Preview: France remains undefeated at home, Norway dominates weak teams, Argentina narrowly wins, Austria scores a big victory

Beijing time June 17, 2026, the first round of the Canada-USA-Mexico World Cup group stage features four key matches—France vs Senegal, Iraq vs Norway, Argentina’s debut against Algeria, Austria facing the new team Jordan.
Based on team depth, tactical styles, and group standings, the predicted outcomes for today are: France wins or draws (undefeated against Norway in the last match), Norway wins by 2 goals over Iraq, Argentina narrowly wins 1-0/2-1, Austria scores a big win.

🇫🇷 France vs Senegal (and last round vs Norway)—Les Bleus with high expectations

As defending champions, France sends Mbappé and Dembélé on the wings, with Chouaméni and Rabiot controlling the midfield, and Saliba-Upa Meccano forming a backline that troubles opponents. The first match against Senegal shows a clear advantage for France, and in the last round against Norway, Opta predicts over 85% chance of remaining undefeated (30% draw + 55% win).
Prediction: France remains undefeated (win/draw).

🇳🇴 Iraq vs Norway—Haaland + Ødegaard to secure net goals

Norway makes its World Cup debut, facing the weakest team in the group, Iraq. Haaland scored 16 goals in 8 World Cup qualifiers, Ødegaard orchestrates the midfield, with the team winning all 8 qualifiers, scoring 37 goals and conceding only 5. Iraq plays a 5-4-1 low-block defense, but lacks toughness and experience to limit Norway’s multiple attack points.
Prediction: Norway wins, by 2 goals (0-2/1-2).

🇦🇷 Argentina vs Algeria—Defending champions start with stability

Under Scaloni, Argentina continues with the champion squad, with Messi confirmed to start but expected to be substituted around the 60th minute, and Enzo, McAllister, and De Paul forming a midfield triangle controlling the tempo. Algeria’s 5-4-1 bus formation + Mahrez counterattack has some resilience, but overall their physicality and passing control are significantly inferior. Argentina’s debut usually emphasizes stability over flair.
Prediction: Argentina narrowly wins (1-0/2-1).

🇦🇹 Austria vs Jordan—Ragnick’s high pressing against “lambs to the slaughter”
Austria, under Ragnick, has become a benchmark for high pressing in Europe, with Sabitzer, Lainer, and Alaba leading a Bundesliga core. In 8 World Cup qualifiers, they scored 22 goals and conceded only 4. Jordan makes its first World Cup appearance, with a team value only about 8% of Austria’s, relying solely on Tamari for offense, making it difficult to sustain continuous pressing for 90 minutes.
Prediction: Austria scores a big win (by 3 goals+).
