The Round of 16 continues, and we still have another great World Cup match to bet on today.

Hosts Mexico will take on their first real challenge of this tournament, and it will be none other than this Harry Kane-led England at 8:00 p.m. ET in Mexico City.

Let's get into our World Cup prop picks for this Round of 16 match on Sunday, July 5.

England's matches have averaged 9.75 corner kicks in this World Cup, and this will be the biggest challenge yet for the Three Lions, as they face the altitude of Mexico City and the hosts' nearly unblemished record at Estadio Azteca, with only two losses there in 89 matches.

Mexico's last game against Ecuador had 11 corners, which also bodes well for our pick. This matchup will likely be a tight contest until the final whistle, and such circumstances usually lead to a lot of last-ditch efforts.

Harry Kane 2+ Shots on Goal (+175)

Harry Kane has had two or more shots on goal in three of his four contests at the 2026 World Cup, and even though Mexico could limit his options to score, he should be able to get two strikes on target here.

Only Ghana, with their defensive approach, managed to leave Kane with only one shot on goal so far.

With this prop, you get better odds than with Kane scoring (which would already be a shot on target), so this is a great-value option.
