Canada couldn’t have asked for a better outcome.
With Bosnia and Herzegovina beating Italy for the final spot in Group B, the Canadians avoid a true heavyweight — and their path to the World Cup knockout stage remains firmly intact.
The draw didn’t just stay favorable… it slightly improved their World Cup odds.

Canada World Cup predictions
Pick: To qualify from Group B (-225 at Sports Interaction)
This is exactly the setup Canada needed.
Bosnia brings attacking quality, but they lack the structure, depth, and tournament experience that would’ve come with a side like Italy. Over a three-game sample, that difference is massive.
Canada now has a clear, realistic path:
- Beat Qatar
- Take something from Bosnia
- Stay competitive with Switzerland
That likely gets them through — and possibly into the Top 2.
With the expanded format allowing third-place teams to advance, Canada doesn’t need perfection… just execution.
