Tunisia sit in Tier 5 of our Goal Rush competition at £4m per slot, the lowest band in Goal Rush. Group F features Netherlands as heavy favourites, but Japan and Sweden present competitive opportunities. It's a challenging draw that reflects their entry-level pricing, though their qualifying pedigree suggests they could be competitive.
