How we got here

Colombia topped Group K and earned a knockout matchup against third-place Ghana. Colombia cruised through Group K with a 2-1-0 record, drawing Portugal in the final match. A suffocating defense was on full display having allowed just one goal with two clean sheets.

Ghana’s route was a rockier one, going 1-1-1. It had a Group Stage win against Panama, an impressive 0-0 draw against England, and suffered a 2-1 loss to Croatia. To stay competitive against a disciplined Colombia side, Ghana must fix its inconsistencies.

Tough defenses

Take this as it’s presented, but both teams defend well. While Colombia conceded one goal, Ghana allowed two. Ghana had two clean sheets, including one against powerhouse England.

Seeing both defenses locked in, Kalshi is leaning heavily on the under 2.5-goal mark at 59%. There are also shades on Colombia covering -1.5 goals as its team total goals sits at 56% to go over 1.5 while Ghana has 56% to stay under 0.5 goals.

A win for either sets up a Round of 16 match against the winner of Switzerland and Algeria on Tuesday July 7 from BC Place in Vancouver.
