IR Iran v New Zealand

FIFA World Cup 2026

The line on IR Iran v New Zealand is doing its job: the price is already absorbing the same reads the model is using. Pass.

The market and our model agree — no clear edge.

Squad

Nothing's surfaced on either squad this week — no absences, no bans.

IR Iran should win, and the price already says so. The model has IR Iran at 61%, the market at 52%. Strong favourites priced shorter than the model rates them is where we get Picks; the reverse — both numbers landing in the same place — is where we get a Pass. We'll check again near kickoff when the confirmed eleven and any fitness news land; until then, the price reads fair.

Price across venues

The number that matters is the true price — what you actually pay once each venue's margin, fee, spread, or commission is folded in. The cheapest true price wins.
