Portugal vs. North Korea, 7:30AM ET
Neither team was able to pick up a win in their opening contests, with North Korea losing 2-1 to Brazil and Portugal playing a scoreless draw with the Ivory Coast. Portugal is the better team on paper, but North Korea still was somewhat impressive against Brazil. Still, Portugal needs a win in this game and has more to play for, so we suggest taking them.
