U.S. Men’s National Team Preps for Final Tune‑Up Against Turkey at SoFi

Ahead of the round of 32, the squad experiments with line‑ups while odds hint at a tight contest

The United States Men's National Team will meet Turkey in a friendly at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, on June 25, kicking off at 8 p.m. Mountain Time. The game is the final warm‑up before the Americans head into the round of 32, a stage they have already secured.

Because the knockout round is already guaranteed, the match is essentially a dress rehearsal. Coach Gregg Berhalter is expected to use a largely second‑choice XI, giving minutes to players such as Folarin Balogun, Chris Richards and Antonee Robinson while keeping star forward Christian Pulisic under careful observation after a recent injury.

Tyler Adams, who has been a mainstay in midfield, may also see limited action, allowing the coaching staff to evaluate depth options. Veteran analyst Bill Speros and reporter Drew Epperley have noted that the lineup could be shuffled to avoid suspensions in the upcoming fixture.

What the Numbers Say

The betting line places the United States at -105, indicating a modest favorite status, while the draw and Turkey odds sit at +275 and +250 respectively. The over/under of 2½ goals underscores expectations of a tightly contested game.

Broadcast details will also be of interest. The match can be watched live on FOX in English, Fox One, and Telemundo in Spanish, with streaming available through FUBO. Fans will be watching closely as young talents like Folarin Balogun and Antonee Robinson earn caps, potentially shaping the team’s chemistry heading into the knockout stage.
