USA

The US National Team has finally brought a very strong and high-profile roster to the 2024 World Cup. In recent years, we’ve become accustomed to the Americans drafting players from college leagues, accompanied by AHL players and NHL veterans. That’s enough to get through the group stage of the tournament, but fighting for the title with such a selection of hockey players is problematic. And now the Stars and Stripes are serious about winning a trophy they haven’t had since 1960. Since in the opening game they lost to the Swedes – 2:5. The very next day they rehabilitated themselves by defeating the Germans 6:1.

Slovakia

The Slovakian team is the bronze medallist of the last Olympic Games, which is why they are now receiving special attention. Right after that success they reached the quater-finals at the 2022 World Cup, but the 2023 World Cup went badly for them, as they failed to qualify for the play-offs. Now they are clearly determined to make amends for last year’s failure. The Slovaks have a good squad, but they failed in their debut game at the 2024 World Cup. They lost their most important game against the Germans, who are their direct rivals in the fight for the play-offs, 4:6. This defeat did not make them panic, and therefore the day before they had no problems with the national team of Kazakhstan – 6:2.

Expert Betting Tips

The Slovak national team is not the most convenient opponent for the US team, as in the last 12 head-to-head meetings the Americans have won only seven times. In the upcoming match they will have a great opportunity to improve the statistics, as at the World Cup-2024 ‘star-striped’ brought a very skilful squad. In the opening game they were just entering the tournament, but the previous day we had already seen their full power when they beat a tough Germany team. The Slovaks are noticeably inferior to the opponent in class, and the day before they played a match against Kazakhstan, and John Hines’ charges were resting, so they should be fresher.
