USMNT vs. Turkey World Cup mega-preview: Predictions, odds, must-reads and more

The USMNT has already secured top spot in their World Cup group after wins over Paraguay and Australia, making Thursday's match against Turkey inconsequential for the USA's advancement. The U.S. aims for a perfect nine-point group stage while coach Mauricio Pochettino considers rotation, with star forward Christian Pulisic declared available after missing the Australia match with a calf injury. Turkey, once considered the group's toughest opponent, has been eliminated and will head home regardless of the result.
