"Bear Bets" are real wagers that Chris "The Bear" Fallica is actually making. Several teams already know their fates for the Round of 32, while some are still hoping they get to avoid facing the stiffest of competition. Here's how I'm wagering on Match Day 17.

World Cup Best Bets Saturday, June 27 Croatia vs. Ghana A draw suits both teams fine. Two of the matches on Thursday that saw two teams that simply needed a draw to advance ended in a draw. Well hope it continues here, as Ghana certainly isn't much of a threat to score but is extremely difficult to break down. Just ask England. Panama vs. England Panama has been pretty good defensively, but this should be exactly what the doctor ordered for England after a boring nil-nil draw against Ghana. Colombia vs. Portugal It took Colombia a lot longer than most would have thought to finally score against Congo, and it even saw Uzbekistan go up 1-0. The winner here wins the group and will have a much better path for deep progression in the tourney in other words, being on the opposite side of the draw from France and Spain. Portugal dominated the advanced stats against Congo but just couldnt finish. The finishing happened against Uzbekistan. It should be an epic scene in Miami. I think Portugal is better, will have more of the ball and will ultimately walk away with all three points, finishing atop the group. Congo vs. Uzbekistan Congo needs a win to advance, while Uzbekistan has been eliminated. We saw Portugal pour in five against Uzbekistan last time out, and while Congo does not have the scoring ability of Portugal, it would be surprising if it didnt get a goal. And with a bit of open gym here, dont be surprised if Cannavaros squad goes home with a goal here as well. Algeria vs. Austria I cant wait to see this match play out. Neither truly wants to finish second in the group and face Spain in the Round of 32, but thats what it appears Austria is destined for. Both teams scoring would be surprising, considering neither team really wants to win. Jordan vs. Argentina Well see what lineup changes Argentina makes here now that the group is secure. I cant imagine that Lionel Messi doesnt start, but I can see him being pulled in the second half and others getting in the box score. Ill take Thiago Almada, but you can certainly take your pick from a variety of Argentine players.
