World Cup Props for Monday
Cabo Verde vs Spain Prop Picks
Even though Spain will make their debut in this 2026 edition without their star Lamine Yamal and probably Nico Williams as well, as both are still recovering from injuries, they won't even need them in this lopsided matchup.
Spain is among the top candidates to win the tournament, if not the best, and should not only win by some margin, but their excellent ball handling and style will make life difficult for the African side, so let's also bank on Cabo Verde not scoring here.
With a great season at Barcelona, Ferran Torres could make the most out of this match, while fellow winger Yamal and Williams heal.
Ferran is a strong finisher, and there will be a high volume of shots for Spain, so he's very likely to be involved in the scoresheet one way or another.
Parlay both at +182 at DraftKings.
Egypt vs Belgium Prop Picks
Belgium didn't face strong opposition in the qualifiers, and against tougher opponents, they are usually more cautious in their approach.
Egypt will probably also try to size them up first and not risk too much, as they both know the other two matches against Iran and New Zealand will be much easier. The second half promises more action.
He won the Gold Glove in Russia eight years ago and is still one of the best goalkeepers on the planet.
Thibaut Courtois kept three clean sheets in four qualifying matches, and his World Cup experience will help in containing talented attackers such as Omar Marmoush and Mohamed Salah.
If you parlay these picks, you can get a +298 payout at DraftKings.
Uruguay vs Saudi Arabia Prop Picks
Saudi Arabia has already proven how dangerous it can be to underestimate them, after surprising Argentina in the first match of Qatar 2022.
Uruguay has had many ups and downs lately, but no one questions them as favorites. The South Americans will try to reestablish their confidence, so expect them to be aggressive without going crazy.
New Zealand vs Iran Prop Picks
This has all the makings of a really fun World Cup game; that's what usually happens with under-the-radar teams that desperately need to beat the other.
Iran and New Zealand know their only chance to advance is to emerge as the winner today. With that kind of motivation, these matches tend to turn into a box-to-box affair, with lots of scoring. With good strikers on each side — Mehdi Taremi in Iran and Chris Wood in New Zealand — three goals should be enough.
