World Cup Best Bets Sunday, June 14 Germany vs. Curaao Germany has not made it out of the group stage in the last two World Cups but should have little trouble here as a massive favorite in this match. Betting matches like this can be tough, as we know Germany will win. It's just a question of how many goals the team scores and if it gets lazy defensively late and allows something easy when the score is 4-0 or so. Ill shoot for a few things here, so follow along. I'll wager on Nick Woltemade anytime goal, Nico Schlotterbeck anytime goal and Over 7.5 corners for Germany. It looks like Julian Nagelsmann has finally found the correct role for Woltemade and Schlotterbeck is always a danger in the air on set pieces. Germany should have all the ball and, with constant pressure on Curaao, should accumulate a ton of corners. The Netherlands vs. Japan The Netherlands' defense is the strength of its team, with players like Virgil van Djik, Denzel Dumfries and others. However, it can have trouble scoring at timesand that might be the case here against a feisty Japanese side that isnt afraid to be the aggressor and will keep pressure on the Netherlands. I give Japan a good chance at getting at least a draw out of this. Ivory Coast vs. Ecuador Im so intrigued by this matchup. I think the Ivory Coast has real dark-horse potential after running through qualifying without allowing a goal. It has a great combo of youth up front and experience in midfield and defense. Can the team generate scoring chances against an Ecuador side that finished second behind Argentina in qualifying and conceded just five goals? But it also offers next to nothing in the attack. This one has rock fight written all over it. Expect a low-scoring game likely 0-0 half and then one of the Ivory Coasts young attackers like Guessand, Diamonde or Diallo will have a chance to give the Elephants all three points in the second half. Sweden vs. Tunisia People know the names Alexander Isak and Victor Gyorkeres from watching the English Premier League, but Im not sure the duo has its way here. Tunisia is a buttoned-up defensive machine. It didn't allow a goal in qualifying and will be quite content to absorb pressure and keep everyone behind the ball. Ill take a rare stab at the nil-nil.

SportsLine's UFC projection model reveals its UFC Freedom 250 picks featuring Ilia Topuira vs. Justin Gaethje for Sunday's bout at the White House in Washington, D.C., on Paramount+

Bengals receive Joe Flacco trade projection that makes a deal intriguing originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.The Cincinnati Bengals are heading into the 2026 NFL season with some renewed confidence in their team being able to contend for a Super Bowl.But, regardless of whether this team is contending or not, they should have the phone lines open for a few of their veteran players in case of a trade. One of those is backup quarterback Joe Flacco.And with the Bengals receiving a trade projection from Bleacher Report's Moe Moton on Flacco, a potential deal at such an evaluation would be very intriguing.Joe Flacco projected trade value should intrigue Bengals"Last year, the Browns traded Flacco to the Bengals for a sixth-round pick," Moton writes. "Cincinnati may be able to get multiple late-round picks from a desperate playoff-contending club. Estimated trade value: 2027 fifth-round pick, 2028 fifth-round pick."After Joe Burrow got hurt last season, the Bengals traded a sixth-round pick to the Cleveland Browns to add Flacco as a stopgap. He thrived, and Flacco proved he still is a solid QB in the NFL despite being 41 years old.But the question then becomes, why should the Bengals even trade Flacco? Burrow's injury history suggests Cincinnati should have a good backup QB option, and Flacco is a fan favorite and would be a great one for this team. So, why trade him away?MORE:Bengals fans should worry about second-year linebackers in 2026Well, if the Bengals could get back this kind of value projected by Moton, then they should seriously consider a trade. Adding two fifth-round picks is not an insignificant return in a trade.While yes, the Bengals would turn to a worse back QB option, they could trade less than this value for someone like Tanner McKee, or trust in longtime veteran QB Josh Johnson to be a decent backup if needed.Trading Flacco might not make sense when initially looking at it, but if the Bengals could get the kind of return Moton is projecting, a trade would be a lot more intriguing and hard to turn down than if it were simply one late-round pick.More NFL news:Stefon Diggs linked to Rams, Chiefs, Commanders after Patriots releaseHarold Fannin Jr. will need to prove his worth in Todd Monkens Browns offenseSeahawks Nick Emmanwori can be an All-Pro if he plays better in pass coverageBears need Luther Burden III and Colston Loveland to step up with DJ Moore tradedESPN analyst says if Cade Klubnik gets on the field for Jets it would mean something went wrong

I was distracted and in awe of what was going on, and I think the crowd loved it, too."For me, I remember when I was younger watching them fly over, but to be watching them from this view at the Queen's Club, I think it was a fun moment with the crowd, and I really enjoyed the interaction."Raducanu survived an injury scare in the contest to defeat Rakhimova, after having strapping on her left thigh.The British No1 said: "I think right now it's a mix of adrenaline, but it was tough to take that fall. "I feel like I was in a pretty good spot in the match, and on grass these things can happen."Raducanu will be in action later today against Iva Jovic after having her games delayed due to the weather.Speaking about playing twice in one day, she said: "Obviously, it's not easy to double up and play two matches.LATEST SPORTS NEWS:World Cup 2026 day three: US thump Paraguay while Canada draw, Scotland in action laterEngland World Cup chaos as balls and training kit stolen days before Croatia clashEmma Raducanu survives injury scare to reach semi-finals of Queen's Club Championship"It's not something I've done before."The fall kind of threw me a little bit, but if anything, it takes the pressure off. "[Jovic] has been playing incredibly well, she's seeded, she's had a great season so far, and I've honestly just kind of started."I think it will be a really tough match, but the support and this atmosphere is insane, so any opportunity I get to play in front of everyone, I'm really charged."Raducanu's run to the last four represents a significant recovery following a disappointing opening-round defeat at the French Open and a challenging period earlier in the season when a post-viral illness kept her away from competition for two and a half months.The semi-final appearance mirrors her 2024 Nottingham performance, where compatriot Katie Boulter claimed the title, and equals her Washington 2025 achievement at WTA 500 level.Rakhimova proved resilient throughout, saving two match points before finally succumbing.Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter
