The USAMNT needs a result here, and our New Zealand vs. USA predictions think the favorites will ride a wave of corners in Saturday's Olympics matchup.New Zealand hopes to clinch a spot in the Paris Olympics knockout stage with a win on Saturday over the United States. Their 2-1 win over Guinea gave them three crucial points, but they’ll need a result ahead of a showdown with France.
Now they’re forced to get a result, and will meet a New Zealand side that knows a draw would earn them a valuable point. They have a solid goalkeeper in Alex Paulsen from AFC Bournemouth in the Premier League, and they have the ability to hurt the Americans on the counter with pace. The likelihood of a stalemate here makes the price for a draw a solid value. The Americans are likely to win, but the implied odds of a draw here are too low, which is why it’s my pick on the 3-way line.Our best bet plays off everything we just discussed. The United States managed just two corners in their loss to France, but they were being pressured throughout and rarely had to shoot through a crowd of bodies.
