Folarin Balogun has emerged as one of the most clinical finishers in the USMNT squad.

Folarin Balogun Player Prop Bet 2: Over 2.5 Shots @ -105
Balogun is highly active inside the penalty area and consistently looks to get shots away when opportunities arise.
Paraguay’s defense will likely focus on containing Pulisic, which could open up space for the young striker to exploit.
His willingness to shoot from various angles and distances gives him a strong chance of registering multiple attempts on goal in what should be an open and attacking game for the hosts.

A multi-goal haul would be a dream start to the tournament for both the player and the American fans.
