Canada vs Bosnia & Herzegovina Tips, Prediction & Live Stream
Canada have a great opportunity to secure their first ever World Cup victory when they host Bosnia & Herzegovina at the BMO Field in Toronto on Friday.
Landing in a favourable group that also features Switzerland and Qatar, Canada are expected to advance into the knockout phase of a World Cup for the first time. The Canucks have lost all six of their previous World Cup games and this will be just their third appearance on the big stage. Meanwhile, Bosnia & Herzegovina are appearing in the World Cup finals for the first time since being bundled out of the 2014 group stage in Brazil.
Despite a magical qualifying campaign in which they edged out Italy and Wales on penalties, this Bosnian outfit looks fairly limited and over-reliant on 40-year-old talismanic striker Eden Dzeko, who's also been carrying a shoulder injury into this tournament and missed a recent friendly against Panama - which they failed to win. Dzeko has a record 73 goals for his country, no other player in the 26-man squad has more than four.
The Bosnians don't have any notable wins inside 90 minutes over the last few years, while Canada are unbeaten in 16 of their last 17 matches inside 90 minutes. With home ground advantage and great record in Toronto, Canada won't get a better chance to win a World Cup game - and I think they take it, with star striker Jonathan David getting amongst the goals.

Canada vs Bosnia & Herzegovina Head To Head
This will be the first ever meeting between the two nations.
Canada Form Analysis
Canada enjoyed automatic qualification for just their third ever World Cup appearance as one of the three host nations.
Jesse Marsch's side are unbeaten in their last eight games, earning solid draws against South American sides Ecuador and Colombia, while their last hit-out resulted in a 1-1 draw with Ireland after previously taking care of Uzbekistan 2-0.
Fair to say their previous appearances have been nothing to write home about, with Canada losing all six games and scoring just two goals - one of which was an own goal.
However, expectations are much higher this time around as one of the hosts and in the expanded 48-team format.
Jesse Marsch's side are unbeaten in their last eight games, earning solid draws against South American sides Ecuador and Colombia, while their last hit-out resulted in a 1-1 draw with Ireland after previously taking care of Uzbekistan 2-0.
Canada Team News
Bayern Munich star Alphonso Davies is carrying a hamstring strain and is in some doubt for the World Cup opener.
David is the main man up front with 39 goals for his country. Maxime Crepeau should start in goals after missing the 2022 World Cup through injury.
Canada Squad
Canada still have a stack of talent at their disposal, including Juventus forward Jonathan David, Ismael Kone and Alistair Johnston.
David is the main man up front with 39 goals for his country. Maxime Crepeau should start in goals after missing the 2022 World Cup through injury.

Bosnia & Herzegovina Form Analysis
This will be Bosnia's second appearance at the World Cup, with their only other showing resulting in group state elimination at Brazil 2014.
It was a dramatic qualification campaign for Bosnia, with the team securing their ticket to North America after surviving both Wales and Italy on penalties.
Sergej Barbarez's side are unbeaten in their last eight games, but it's fair to say that outside of those somewhat fortuitous penalty triumphs, the Bosnians haven't really beaten any team of note over the last few years.
The Zmajevi's two warm-up friendlies did little to inspire any confidence, registering a 0-0 stalemate with North Macedonia before a 1-1 draw with Panama.
Bosnia & Herzegovina Team News
There's no doubt this team is still built around 40-year-old veteran Dzeko, who made his senior debut for the national team back in 2007.
Dzeko missed the draw with Panama last week with a shoulder injury and it remains to be seen if he takes his place in the starting side here. Haris Tabakovic has been named in the squad, but is also doubtful with an ankle injury.
