Group B concluded with the United States securing the top spot with 6 points. Australia and Paraguay both finished on 4 points, but Australia advances due to a superior goal difference (0 to -2). Turkey ended with 3 points.
Third-Place Team Predictions
In the overall ranking of third-place teams, several sides still have a game remaining. The projected order places Congo DR on 4 points, followed by Ecuador, Sweden, Bosnia, Croatia, and Paraguay, all on 4 points or less. Senegal and South Korea are on 3 points, with Scotland on 3 points but a worse goal difference of -3.
The analyst noted uncertainty about Croatia's position and acknowledged that Iran or Uruguay could rise to 3 points. Scotland's qualification hopes depend on Senegal failing to win their final match.
