Last year, Green was profitable in multiple areas on his soccer picks, including the Champions League (+211.25) and Bundesliga (+100). He's also been red-hot in 2026, posting an 18-8 record over his last 26 UCL picks, returning nearly $1,000 in profit. Additionally, he's on a 16-6 roll on World Cup picks (+833)!

Now Green has turned his attention to England vs. Mexico in the 2026 World Cup, and revealed his best bets. 

One of Green's England vs. Mexico predictions: He is leaning Over 2.5 total goals (+136). England have a wealth of elite attackers capable of unlocking Mexico's defense, while El Tri have found the back of the net in their last eight matches. Mexico's defense has been impressive, but England are vastly superior to the opposition they have faced so far.

Green has found a critical x-factor and locked in two plus-money best bets, including one that returns nearly +200!
