We were one pick away from landing 5/5 with our last pick, and we are even more determined to deliver a full house this weekend.
Here are our well-researched goalscorer World Cup picks for this weekend.
Folarin Balogun vs Australia
The USA delivered an outstanding display to defeat Paraguay 4-1 in their World Cup opener, and their fans will be hoping for more of the same against Australia.
However, the Socceroos pulled off a massive shock when they beat Turkey in their first game, and they will no doubt be filled with confidence.
This has the makings of a high-scoring game, and the hosts will fancy themselves to make it two wins out of two.
Key Stat: Folarin Balogun has scored 7 goals in his last 10 games.
Pick: Balogun to score anytime @2.30
Vinicius Junior vs Haiti
Brazil needed a stunning solo strike from Vinicius Junior to take a point in their opener against Morocco. Head coach Carlo Ancelotti is now under a bit of pressure and must steer his side to an impressive win against Haiti to get their tournament back on track.
Haiti were competitive in their 1-0 defeat to Scotland in round one but are unlikely to have enough to stop Brazil from getting their first win.
Key Stat: Vinicius Junior has 3 goal contributions in his last 3 games for Brazil.
Pick: Vinicius Jr to score anytime @1.85
Lamine Yamal vs Saudi Arabia
Spain may have failed to beat Cape Verde but attempted 27 shots, and Cape Verde keeper Vozinha was in inspired form.
Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams should return for this game, and the odds are heavily stacked against Saudi Arabia.
Expect Spain to be fired up and eager to make a statement on Sunday, and we could see a big scoreline.
Key Stat: Lamine Yamal should be back in the starting lineup, and prior to his season-ending injury, the 18-year-old had scored 4 goals in 3 games.
Pick: Yamal to score anytime @1.95
Kylian Mbappe vs Iraq
France sent a message to the rest of the World Cup with an impressive 3-1 win over Senegal in their tournament opener. Expect Didier Deschamps to confirm qualification for the knockout stages when they meet massive underdogs Iraq in Philadelphia on Monday.
Mbappe is bang in form at the right moment, and his two goals against Senegal took him to 14 World Cup goals, a tally he will be desperate to add to.
Key Stat: Kylian Mbappe has scored 6 goals in his last 10 starts.
Pick: Mbappe to score anytime @1.50
Lionel Messi vs Austria
Argentina smashed Algeria in their opener, and the headlines were dominated by hat-trick hero Lionel Messi, who broke multiple records in an impressive win.
Lionel Scaloni’s men will once again look to their 38-year-old maestro to make the difference against Austria, who will be no pushovers after their 3-1 win over Jordan.
Key Stat: Messi has scored 9 goals in his last 7 appearances for Inter Miami and Argentina. His hat-trick against Algeria took him level with Miroslav Klose as the all-time leading goalscorer in World Cup history.
Pick: Messi to score anytime @2.00
