World Cup Odds For England Remain Unchanged As Egypt Win Fails To Impress Bookies
Thursday 04 March 2010 at 10:12
England may have beaten the African Champions 3-1 on Wednesday night but the England World Cup Odds have remained unchanged and it is generally thought England will have to improve if they are to lift the World Cup in South Africa this summer.
England Still Thought Of As third Best Team By Bookies
England can currently be backed at 11/2 to win the World Cup at SkyBet and Paddy Power and those World Cup Odds make England the third favourites to win the World Cup, behind Spain who are favourites at 9/2 with Bet365, who offer up to £200 in free bets to new customers, whilst Brazil are second favourites at 5/1 with Bet365 and SkyBet. England are clearly considered to be up there with the best but they will certainly need to improve on last night’s performance if they are to live up to those odds.
England Expected To Be Knocked Out By Brazil In The Semis
As 11/2 third favourites with SkyBet and Paddy Power it is clearly expected that England will reach the semi finals but at that stage they are likely to face Brazil and the bookies clearly think Brazil will beat England. England can currently be backed at 9/2 with William Hill to be knocked out in the semi final of the World Cup and that doesn’t look a bad bet, whilst Bet365 offer 6/1 that England finish as runners up at the World Cup. Should England beat Brazil in the semi final they are likely to face Spain in the final so that 6/1 with Bet365 looks pretty generous. If you think England will fail to live up to expectations you can get 7/2 with Paddy Power that England go out at the quarter finals or you could back England to go out in the Second Round at 7/2 with SkyBet.
