Ladbrokes brings you accumulator tips for day 16 of the World Cup
France are tipped to score over 1.5 goals vs Norway with Mikel Oyarzabal scoring for Spain against Uruguay
Positive results for Senegal, Cape Verde and Belgium are also predicted on day 16
Ladbrokes brings you its daily World Cup accumulator tips as Groups H, G and I conclude with plenty still at stake in the race to reach the round of 32.
Norway take on France to decide who wins Group I, before Spain look to cement themselves as Group H winners versus Uruguay and Cape Verde bid to earn a fairytale run into the knockout stages. Belgium will hope to avoid an embarrassing early exit when they face New Zealand as both Egypt and Iran attempt to beat them to the top of Group G.
Below you'll find our World Cup accumulator tips for all six games on day 16, which we'll continue providing every day throughout the competition.
An enticing game awaits on Friday night as dark horses Norway take on current outright favourites France in the fixture to decide the winners of Group I - and it should be a high-scoring encounter due to the attacking talent on show for both sides.
While France are the favourites to win this game, our experts are not quite convinced three points are a given - especially as a point would still see Didier Deschamps' men win the group. Instead, we're tipping the French to score at least two goals, having already bagged six across their two games so far.
Senegal to beat Iraq with -1 handicap
Senegal can consider themselves unlucky to still be on zero points after two games after losing out to France and Norway. The round of 32 is still achievable for the Lions of Teranga - but they will need a big win against Iraq if they are to boost themselves up the third-place rankings and squeeze through on goal difference.
Iraq lost by a three-goal deficit to both Norway and France and we think a similar outcome could be in the offing here, so a Senegal win for a -1 handicap feels very much on the cards.
Cape Verde to win or draw vs Saudi Arabia
Cape Verde's unbeaten start to their first-ever World Cup is one of the stories of the tournament so far, with the tiny African nation now extraordinarily odds-on to qualify from Group H despite so few giving them any chance before a ball was kicked.
Having drawn with both Spain and Uruguay so far, we think the story could continue here against an ordinary Saudi Arabia side, with a Cape Verde win or draw backed in a double chance pick, which should be enough to take them into the round of 32.
Mikel Oyarzabal to score for Spain vs Uruguay
After putting their shock draw with Cape Verde behind them, Spain reminded everyone why they are one of the tournament favourites with a ruthless 4-0 win over Saudi Arabia - with striker Mikel Oyarzabal opening his account in the first half before being taken off to be rested at half-time.
The Real Sociedad forward has found the net in 11 of his last 13 appearances he has played in for La Roja, firmly cementing himself as the central point of their attack. Rather than tip a Spain win - the odds are firmly siding with them - we have selected the 29-year-old to double his tally for the 2026 World Cup.
Under 2.5 total goals in Egypt vs Iran
We go to Group G for the final two legs of our accumulator, and we are tipping a nervy game between Egypt and Iran, with the Iranians hoping to join their opponents in the round of 32.
Neither side are famed for their attacking output and a draw is likely to suit both teams, with Belgium expected to beat New Zealand. As a result, we can't see many goals in this one so have opted for under 2.5 to be scored.
Belgium to beat New Zealand with -1 handicap
That leads us nicely onto Belgium, who need a big win over New Zealand to have any chance of topping Group G, while a loss could even send them out of the tournament altogether.
While they haven't hit the heights so far, we are expecting Kevin De Bruyne and Co to finally turn it on in the final game and get the three points they need. With the chance to go through as winners dependent on goal difference, we're tipping the Red Devils to socre at least two - so a -1 handicap win over the All Whites feels reasonable.
