Injury Report
United States
- Christian Pulisic — DAY‑TO‑DAY (hamstring)
- Tyler Adams — OUT (back)
- Tim Weah — DAY‑TO‑DAY (ankle)
- Matt Turner — DAY‑TO‑DAY (shoulder)
Impact: Pulisic’s availability is the biggest storyline. Without him, the U.S. loses its most dynamic attacker. Adams’ absence affects midfield ball‑winning and structure.
Bosnia and Herzegovina
- Edin Džeko — DAY‑TO‑DAY (groin)
- Miralem Pjanić — OUT (knee)
- Sead Kolašinac — OUT (calf)
- Rade Krunić — DAY‑TO‑DAY (hip)
Impact: Džeko’s status determines Bosnia’s attacking ceiling. Pjanić’s absence removes a key midfield distributor.
Key Player Matchups
Weston McKennie (USA) vs. Rade Krunić (BIH)
McKennie’s physicality and aerial presence will test Bosnia’s midfield. Krunić must slow U.S. transitions.
Christian Pulisic (USA) vs. Bosnia’s Left Side
If Pulisic plays, his dribbling and acceleration can break Bosnia’s defensive shape.
Edin Džeko (BIH) vs. U.S. Center‑Backs
Džeko’s hold‑up play and finishing are Bosnia’s best chance at creating high‑quality chances.
Folarin Balogun (USA) vs. Bosnia’s Back Line
Balogun’s movement and finishing ability can exploit Bosnia’s slower center‑backs.
