World Cup Day 14: Canada, South Korea Looking to Advance; Brazil, Scotland Meet with Group C at Stake

The 2026 World Cup continues Wednesday with Groups A, B, and C in action. It's the final group stage games for three groups, which means games will be played simultaneously. Mexico is the only team playing Wednesday that has already clinched a spot in the Round of 32. That leaves for plenty of meaningful matches, including for co-host Canada, which sits tied atop Group B with Switzerland. Elsewhere, South Korea could join Mexico and advance with a win. Group C features a tight battle between Brazil, Morocco, and Scotland, who might all end up advancing depending on how the rest of the group stage plays out.

Switzerland vs. Canada
Wednesday, June 24 | 3 p.m. ET | Vancouver | TV: Fox
Odds: Switzerland (+130), Canada (+240), Tie (+200)
Canada leads Group B over the Swiss by goal differential. The result will affect where they might end up playing in the Round of 32. A win or a draw means a game in Vancouver as group winners. A loss could see them end up second in Group B and a trip to Los Angeles for a knockout stage match. Switzerland opened with a draw against Qatar and then a victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Bosnia and Herzegovina vs. Qatar
Wednesday, June 24 | 3 p.m. ET | Seattle | TV: FS1
Odds: Bosnia and Herzegovina (-270), Qatar (+650), Tie (+420)
The bottom two teams in Group B will aim to keep their hopes alive. One side will be eliminated in this match. The other could move on depending on the outcome of Canada-Switzerland and if a large goal differential can be overcome. Both teams drew and lost their first two matches at the World Cup. Bosnia's Tarik Muharemović and Qatar's Homam El Amin and Assim Madibo will miss the match after picking up red cards.

Scotland vs. Brazil
Wednesday, June 24 | 6 p.m. ET | Miami | TV: Fox
Odds: Brazil (-280), Scotland (+410), Tie (+410)
Can Scotland break the Brazil hex? They've never beaten the South American side having played 10, losing eight and drawing two times in the previous meetings. Both sides are sitting in good places in terms of reaching the Round of 32. Brazil leads the group with four points and a plus-3 goal differential. Scotland is right behind them with three points, above last-place Haiti on zero points. As Raphinha looks to be an injury doubt, Neymar could be available for Carlo Ancelotti after missing the first two matches due to a calf injury.

Morocco vs. Haiti
Wednesday, June 24 | 6 p.m. ET | Atlanta | TV: FS1
Odds: Morocco (-600), Haiti (+1600), Tie (+600)
Already eliminated, Haiti finishes its World Cup against Morocco, which is likely through but still hoping to leap Brazil as Group C winners. The 2022 semifinalists drew Brazil and beat Scotland, setting themselves up for a knockout stage place for the second World Cup.

South Africa vs. South Korea
Wednesday, June 24 | 9 p.m. ET | Guadalupe, Mexico | TV: FS1
Odds: South Korea (-145), South Africa (+420), Tie (+270)
One Round of 32 place has been taken by co-hosts Mexico. Can the Koreans join them? South Africa have drawn and lost, while scoring a single goal through two matches. This is a prime chance for South Korea to take three points and secure a place in the knockout stages. Even a draw would be fine for the Taegeuk Warriors as they hold the head-to-head advantage tiebreaker over Czechia should they upset Mexico.

Czechia vs. Mexico
Wednesday, June 24 | 9 p.m. ET | Mexico City | TV: Fox
Odds: Mexico (-110), Czechia (+270), Tie (+280)
Czechia need a win and hope that South Korea is upset by South Africa to have a shot at advancing out of Group A. Mexico is already through but would love to close out group play with three straight wins on home soil. Czechia has not advanced since the 1982 World Cup, while Mexico has reached the next stage eight of their past nine times in the tournament.
