Best Predict Markets This Week - July 7, 2026

Welcome to this week's PREDICT picks, where we break down the most exciting prediction markets available on Duelbits Predict. The 2026 World Cup has entered the business end, and the knockouts have been sensational. Norway eliminated Brazil, Haaland scoring both goals at MetLife Stadium to knock out the five-time champions. Belgium crushed the USA 4-1 in Seattle, with De Ketelaere scoring twice to end the hosts' dream run. Spain edged Portugal 1-0 courtesy of a Mikel Merino stoppage-time winner in Dallas, a result that may have been Cristiano Ronaldo's final World Cup match. Morocco beat Canada 3-0 and England survived Mexico 3-2 at the Azteca despite going down to ten men.
