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 arriving from solid group campaigns. USA topped Group D with 6 points and a +4 goal difference, showing form of LWW, while Bosnia & Herzegovina advanced from Group B in third place on 4 points and a -1 goal difference, with form WLD.

Stats suggest USA have been strong in this tournament, winning 2 of 3 matches and scoring 8 goals while conceding 4. At “home” they have been particularly impressive, with 2 wins from 2 and a 6-1 goal record. Bosnia & Herzegovina have been more mixed, with 1 win, 1 draw and 1 defeat, scoring 5 and conceding 6, and struggling more in away settings.

Head-to-Head Meetings

Head-to-head meetings have been favourable to USA: a 1-0 home win in 2021 and a 0-0 home draw in 2018, both in friendlies. USA will, however, be without C. Roldan due to a muscle bruise.

Form and recent record point to USA having the edge, especially on American soil, but Bosnia & Herzegovina have shown enough attacking threat to keep this knockout finely poised.
