OneFootball x FanDuel: The key questions on World Cup Day 2️⃣5️⃣ | OneFootball

The Round of 16 continues with two heavyweight clashes as Norway face Brazil and England take on Mexico.

Here are the big questions on Day 25.

What games are on today?

Norway v Brazil

Two teams full of confidence meet with a place in the quarter-finals on the line.Norway booked their place in the Round of 16 after a spirited victory over Ivory Coast in the previous round. Organised at the back and clinical when opportunities have come their way, the Norwegians have continued to exceed expectations and will relish another chance to upset one of the tournament favourites.

Brazil edged past Japan to reach this stage and appear to be finding their rhythm at exactly the right time. With world-class quality throughout the squad and an attack capable of producing moments of brilliance, the five-time world champions remain one of the leading contenders to lift the trophy.

Norway have shown they can frustrate elite opposition, but Brazil's quality in the final third should ultimately prove decisive.

Our prediction: Norway 1-3 Brazil

England v Mexico

The final match of the day promises to be one of the most entertaining ties of the Round of 16.

England reached this stage after overcoming DR Congo with a composed performance that highlighted both their attacking quality and resilience. With a balanced squad and plenty of tournament experience, the Three Lions will be confident of continuing their run.

Mexico produced an impressive display to eliminate Ecuador and have looked increasingly dangerous as the tournament has progressed. Their high-energy style, technical quality and passionate belief make them opponents capable of causing problems for any side.

England's greater depth and quality in key attacking areas may prove the difference, but Mexico have enough talent to ensure this is anything but straightforward.

Our prediction: England 2-1 Mexico

Which player should I look out for?

Vinícius Júnior has the ability to change a knockout match in an instant.

The Brazil winger has been one of the tournament's most dangerous attacking players, combining blistering pace with exceptional dribbling and creativity. If Brazil are to make another deep World Cup run, expect Vinícius to be at the heart of everything they do going forward.

Can you give me one stat to impress my friends?

Mexico have reached the Round of 16 at eight of the last nine FIFA World Cups.

That remarkable consistency has made El Tri one of international football's most reliable tournament teams, even if they are still searching for a breakthrough run to the latter stages.
