Türkiye and the United States meet at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on Thursday night in a Group D finale. The USMNT have already secured top spot after wins over Paraguay and Australia – their first time winning their first two World Cup games since 1930 – while Türkiye have been eliminated after two crushing defeats.With the USA already through and Türkiye playing for pride, Star Sports are offering new customers the chance to grab £20 in free bets.

The United States have been everything a home nation hopes to be at this stage. A 4-1 win over Paraguay was followed by a controlled 2-0 victory against Australia, secured by an early own goal and a header from 21-year-old centre‑back Alex Freeman. Folarin Balogun has scored twice so far. Christian Pulisic missed game two with a calf injury but is expected to return here, while Antonee Robinson, Chris Richards, Balogun and Tyler Adams are all one yellow card away from suspension. With the group secured, Mauricio Pochettino has unlimited options.Contrastingly, Türkiye’s World Cup has been a disaster. They arrived with hope after a promising qualifying campaign, but have lost both matches without scoring a single goal. They racked up 32 attempts against Paraguay – taking their two‑match total to 62 shots, the most without a goal in any two‑match span in World Cup history on record – but lost 1-0 to a Matias Galarza strike after just 73 seconds, the tournament’s fastest goal. Arda Guler apologised to the nation afterwards: “We tried very hard but it didn’t work. Everybody’s sad, everybody’s crying.”Score even more value with Star SportsJust follow our link to Star Sports and register using promo code BET40GET20.

The USA, by contrast, have been ruthless, scoring six times while conceding just once. With Pulisic expected back and Pochettino able to rotate his squad freely, the host nation has every reason to press for a third straight win. Facing a vibrant American side backed by a passionate home crowd will likely prove a bridge too far for a broken Turkish team.USA to winOver 2.5 goalsTürkiye have nothing to lose and may finally show some attacking intent, but the USA’s depth and home advantage should prove decisive. The hosts have already qualified and can play without pressure, while Türkiye’s tournament has been defined by a lack of clinical edge and a deflated squad spirit.Understanding the offerTo qualify:Register as a new Star Sports customer ahead of Türkiye vs USA (18+, UK only) – use promo code BET40GET20Deposit and place a single £40 cash bet at minimum odds of evens (2.0) or higherUpon placement of your qualifying bet, you’ll receive 1 x £10 free bet instantlyA second £10 free bet will be credited 24 hours laterFree bets expire after 24 hours and must be placed at minimum odds of 4/1 (5.0)You’ll get:2 x £10 free bets (first upon placement, second 24 hours later)Free bets valid for 24 hoursFree bets must be used at minimum odds of 4/1 (5.0)Key terms and conditions of this Star Sports offer Qualifying bet must be at odds of evens (2.0) or higher.
