Match Predictions: Group A, Final Round

Who: Mexico vs. Russia
When: Saturday, June 24 @ 11 AM EST
Where: Kazan Arena, Kazan
Watch: FOX, Telemundo (TV); Fox Sports Go (Streaming)
Prediction: 2-0 Mexico: Russia lacked a finishing touch that cost them a point against Portugal and more goals against New Zealand, and will fail to find a great scoring chance. Mexico will play to win, and play to win Group B to face the Group B runner-up, disappointing Russia's fans as they eliminate their country's soccer team.

Who: New Zealand vs. Portugal
When: Saturday, June 24 @ 11 AM EST
Where: Krestovsky Stadium, Saint Petersburg
Watch: FS1, NBC Universo (TV); Fox Sports Go, NBC Sports App (Streaming)
Prediction: 1-0 Portugal: Still feel that this game might be 2-0, but Portugal is known by winning by the slimmest of margins, no matter the opponent. Portugal beat Russia by 1 goal and let Russia make a fool out of themselves by dictating possession but not shooting on frame. New Zealand will play for pride, and this game will be another Portugal scores early then defends a lot for the rest of the game. Portugal advances with no regard of the Group A standings.
