USA: Recent Form

Across their last six matches, the USA have recorded three wins and three losses, with no draws — a volatile run that reflects both their attacking ambition and defensive fragility. They have scored 15 goals at an average of 2.5 per match, but conceded 13 at an average of 2.17, and have yet to keep a single clean sheet in this run. Their points-per-game stands at 1.5. The one concerning note is a failure to score in the 0–2 loss to Portugal, though they bounced back sharply with a 4–1 demolition of Paraguay on 13 June — their most recent outing heading into this fixture.

How USA and Australia Compare

The USA are the higher-ranked side and the more prolific scorers in recent form, averaging 2.5 goals per match — a full goal per game more than Australia’s 1.5. However, the Americans have been significantly more exposed at the back, conceding 13 times in six matches without a single clean sheet, while Australia have kept two and shipped only six goals at an average of 1.0 per game.
