Outright Odds: 13/2
Group B Winners: 8/13
Every major tournament rolls around with high expectations for England to win. Yet somehow, they often exit without much fanfare. Why should this World Cup be any different? It's not 1966 anymore, after all.
While the media might hype England's chances, bookmakers remain cautious. The odds suggest a likely elimination in the second round at 12/5, with the quarter-finals at 4/1, and the semi-finals at 9/2.
Under Sven Goran Eriksson, England has been fairly predictable. They easily navigate through mediocre qualifying groups but struggle to perform when it counts most.
England is expected to navigate the group stage comfortably, with wins over Paraguay and Trinidad & Tobago and a likely draw against Sweden. However, facing Germany in the second round could end their campaign abruptly.
The typical pattern for England is to take an early lead, then defensively fall back, hoping to maintain their advantage. This strategy sometimes works, as it did against Argentina in the last World Cup. However, it often fails, as seen against Brazil, France, and Portugal in past tournaments.
While England boasts an impressive squad, featuring top talents like Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard, the team often struggles to gel on the field. There's also the long-standing issue of lacking a natural left-sided player.
Another setback for England is Wayne Rooney's potential absence. His brilliance and strength could have provided a much-needed boost for the team, leaving fans hoping for a longer run in the tournament.
Recommended Bet:
It's wise not to get caught up in the patriotic buzz and place bets based on media hype. While this may be one of England's strongest squads, they may not be reliable for betting. Consider handicap bets for matches against Paraguay and Trinidad & Tobago, while a second-round elimination bet could also be a prudent option?"even if it's a tough pill to swallow.
Bet Recommendation:
- England to be eliminated in the second round @ 12/5
