Main Match Prediction
Ivory Coast +1 could be the order of the day in this Group E game. We can back the underdogs at -102 and feel confident that they will give a good account of themselves by keeping the scoreline close.
The stats and xG data favour Ivory Coast, who are in good form and have avoided defeat by two or more goals in each of their last 20 matches.
Based on what we saw in the opening round, there is no reason why Ivory Coast cannot be competitive here. The Elephants have a strong spine featuring captain Franck Kessie and Evan Ndicka and should be capable of matching a Germany side that still has plenty to prove despite their 7-1 opening victory.
Plenty of research goes into our football picks. It begins by focusing on the latest World Cup form and knowing the injury situation. The important numbers can then be utilised to help complete the picture.

Player Prop Picks
Amad Diallo (Ivory Coast) has recorded a minimum of one shot on goal in one of his past nine games. We anticipate that these numbers will prove telling and that he will cover the Shots on Target line at odds of -105.
