Analysis

Canada are strong favourites at home, 57% to beat Qatar (21%), with the draw at 23%. The co-hosts' rating and crowd give them the edge (1760 vs 1690), though in a low-scoring game the single likeliest scoreline is a tight 1–1.

For Canada this is close to a must-win to keep control of their group; for Qatar, another tough ask against a host nation. Both teams to score at 53% and over 2.5 at 54% point to a moderately open game Canada should shade.
