Japan vs Sweden Best Bets
Japan to win @41/50 Japan have won seven of their last nine matches and look a far more reliable proposition than a Sweden side who were torn apart 5-1 by the Netherlands on matchday two. The Samurai Blue have impressed throughout Group F and their defensive organisation could prove decisive in Dallas.
Ayase Ueda anytime goalscorer @7/5 The Feyenoord striker scored twice in Japan's 4-0 victory over Tunisia and has enjoyed a prolific 2025-26 campaign. Sweden struggled badly against balls into the box against the Netherlands and Ueda looks well placed to take advantage.

Japan vs Sweden Bet Builder Player Picks
Shots
Viktor Gyokeres over 3.5 shots @29/20 The Arsenal striker has taken ten shots across Sweden's first two World Cup matches and remains their primary attacking threat.
Shots On Target

Player Carded
Yasin Ayari to be shown a card @3/1 The Brighton midfielder was booked against the Dutch and his aggressive style often leads to fouls in central areas.
Assists
Junya Ito to register an assist @14/5 Ito scored against Tunisia and was one of Japan's chief creators during qualification, registering ten assists.
Fouls Committed
Takehiro Tomiyasu over 1.5 fouls @23/20 Tomiyasu has committed four fouls in just 94 minutes of World Cup football and looks likely to add to that tally.
