FIFA World Cup Public Betting
Unsurprisingly, the United States has received ample support from bettors ahead of co-hosting the 2026 World Cup.
As of July 18, 2024, the USMNT has received 13.9% of bets placed and 17.6% of dollars wagered. However, following their disappointing Copa America performance, they’ve dropped from +1800 to +4000.
Four other teams have accounted for at least 9% of bets placed, and at least 8% of dollars wagered:
- France (+600): 12% of bets placed, 12.3% of dollars wagered
- Brazil (+600): 11.8% of bets placed, 14.8% of dollars wagered
- Spain (+650): 10.6% of bets placed, 11.2% of dollars wagered
- England (+700): 9.2% of bets placed, 8.5% of dollars wagered
From there, a noticeable dropoff occurs with Germany and Argentina accounting for 5.7% and 5.4% of bets placed, respectively.
Money wise, they account for 6.8% and 5.9% of dollars wagered.
One final nation worth noting is Portugal (+1400). Despite receiving only 4% of bets — tied for eighth most — they’re sitting on 7.5% of dollars wagered, the sixth-largest handle percentage.
