USA vs Bosnia & Herzegovina: World Cup Round of 32 Preview

Match Context

USA face Bosnia & Herzegovina at Levi's Stadium, San-Francisco on 2026-07-02 in the World Cup Round of 32. USA arrive from Group D as group winners with 6 points and a +4 goal difference (8 goals for, 4 against). Bosnia & Herzegovina advance from Group B with 4 points and a -1 goal difference (5 goals for, 6 against).

USA Availability

USA have one confirmed absentee. C. Roldan (Muscle bruise) is sidelined. The midfielder’s absence trims Gregg Berhalter’s rotation options in the middle of the pitch and on the right side, where his versatility and work rate are usually valuable when protecting a lead or changing tempo from the bench.

Bosnia & Herzegovina Availability

There are no listed injuries or suspensions for Bosnia & Herzegovina, leaving the coach with a full squad to select from across all lines, including experienced figures such as E. Dzeko and E. Demirovic in attack.

Impact Summary

With only C. Roldan ruled out and no suspensions reported, both teams retain virtually all of their attacking output from earlier in the competition. USA, who have scored 8 goals in 3 matches, keep their main forward options available. Bosnia & Herzegovina, with 5 goals so far, can again call on their complete attacking unit, suggesting neither side suffers a major blow to its primary goal threat ahead of this Round of 32 tie.
