The 2026 FIFA World Cup is less than two weeks away, so both Canada and Uzbekistan will be looking to finalise their tactics and potential lineups when the two sides meet in Edmonton on Monday night.
Canada will be without star defender Alphonso Davies as he continues his recovery from a hamstring injury he suffered at the start of the month. Head coach Jesse Marsch is confident that Davies will be fit for Canada's second group game, but in his absence, Richie Laryea is likely to start at left back. Aside from that, Marsch will have a virtually full strength squad to choose from.
Uzbekistan's preparations for their first ever World Cup campaign and the White Wolves have now lost just once in their last 18 games. However, it is worth noting that a significant percentage of those games have been against relatively weak opposition and they will still go into this Summer's tournament as one of the rank outsiders.

Our Canada vs Uzbekistan Prediction
Given how close we are to the start of the World Cup, we are expecting this to be a fairly low key affair as both sets of players look to avoid any injuries before the start of the tournament.
Canada are very short-priced favorites for the win, but although Jesse Marsch's side have home advantage and a clearly superior overall squad, this will probably be nothing more than a glorified training exercise.
Because of that, we are predicting the game to end in a largely uneventful draw.
Our prediction for Canada vs Uzbekistan is: Draw.
