The Correct Margin was tipped in 40 matches (63%, much higher than 2020's 53%, but lower than 2018's 67%). Ten people correctly tipped Senegal to beat Qatar by two goals, and ten people correctly tipped Germany to beat Costa Rica by the same Margin.

There was one game in which no points were scored: Morocco - Croatia (during the Group Stages), which ended 0:0.

Goals:
A total of 64 goals were tipped for Argentina - Saudi Arabia (58 of them for Argentina). This game also had the greatest delta. It ended, however, with Saudi Arabia winning that match.
