The semifinals of the 2026 FIFA World Cup kick off today, with one matchup on tap for Tuesday, July 14th.
We’ve got a clash of titans with France taking on Spain at 3 p.m. ET at Dallas Stadium. These are arguably the two best teams in the tournament, which is reflected in World Cup betting odds. With Spain only conceding one goal in this tournament, this projects as a low-scoring game, but France has such an impressive attack, led by Kylian Mbappe, Michael Olise, and Ousmane Dembele.
With that in mind, we should be able to find a few favorable spots for World Cup goalscorers today. Below, we’ll dive into some of the top candidates to find the back of the net. Make sure to check out our World Cup match trends page for daily odds, insights, and betting data for each game.

Tuesday’s Best 2026 World Cup Goal Scoring Picks
- Ousmane Dembele, France
- Michael Olise, France
- Lamine Yamal, Spain
Ousmane Dembele, France
I want to target two French players for this match, but Kylian Mbappe is a bit too expensive at +110 odds. Instead, I’ll start with Ousmane Dembele, who has five goals for Les Bleus in this tournament.
This is a neutral game environment, with France’s goal total listed at 1.5 goals, with the Over at +108 odds. Even with Spain only conceding one goal in this tournament, they haven’t faced a high-octane offense like France.
We’re getting longer than +250 odds at the time of this article, making him look like a much better value than Mbappe. There’s a chance that this game ends 1-1 after regulation, so we want picks at +200 odds or longer in this type of game script. Risk 0.5 units.
Michael Olise, France
Michael Olise has been one of the best players in the tournament. He’s consistently made impressive runs while assisting goals from Mbappe and Dembele. But one thing Olise hasn’t done just yet is score a goal.
I’ve tried taking him a couple of times during this tournament, but haven’t been able to hit yet. Olise has had a bunch of chances, but he’s just been a bit snakebitten so far.
But now, we’re getting Olise at longer than +400 odds, which is the right kind of price to target in a tightly contested match like this one.
Let’s bet on Olise to score his first goal of the tournament here. Risk 0.1 units.
Lamine Yamal, Spain
Speaking of snakebitten players, here’s another one in Lamine Yamal, who has only scored one goal in this tournament so far. If you watched Yamal in the win over Belgium, you saw a player who was consistently getting shot attempts; he just hasn’t been able to convert.
Perhaps in a huge game like the semifinals, we’ll finally see Yamal score a goal, something he hasn’t done since the 4-0 win over Saudi Arabia.
I’m predicting that this game is 1-1 or 2-1 France after 90 minutes, so taking Yamal at longer than +250 odds looks like decent value. You don’t want to be laying expensive prices on Mbappe in a game that may only see two goals. Risk 0.1 units.
