USA vs Bosnia & Herzegovina: World Cup Round of 32 Preview

USA and Bosnia & Herzegovina meet at Levi’s Stadium in San-Francisco in a World Cup Round of 32 tie, with both sides coming off solid group campaigns. USA topped Group D with 6 points and a +4 goal difference, while Bosnia & Herzegovina advanced from Group B with 4 points despite a negative goal balance.

Form lines from the group stage suggest a slight edge for USA, whose recent run reads LWW, backed by 8 goals scored and just 4 conceded in three matches. Their home record in this tournament is perfect so far, winning 2 of 2 and averaging 3.0 goals per home game. Bosnia & Herzegovina, with form WLD, have been more volatile, scoring 5 and conceding 6, and looking far less secure away from home.

Head-to-Head History

Head-to-head history is limited and comes only from friendlies, but it leans USA’s way: a 1-0 home win in Carson in 2021 followed a 0-0 draw at the same venue in 2018.

USA must cope without C. Roldan, ruled out with a muscle bruise, but overall stats and recent results point to the hosts having the upper hand. Expect USA to progress.
