Women’s World Cup Betting: USA Heaviest Favorite On 7/21

The USA Women’s National Team has -10000 odds to beat Vietnam in their World Cup match.
There are -50000 odds for Spain to beat Costa Rica in their match.
Switzerland is a -1.5,2 point favorite over the Philippines.

WASHINGTON – The FIFA Women’s World Cup is still in the beginning stages and there is plenty of action to bet on each day throughout the group stage. On Friday, the two-time defending World Cup champion, USA Women’s National Team will take the field against Vietnam.

The other Friday World Cup matches include Spain Vs. Costa Rica and Switzerland going up against the Philippines. Of the three matches, legal sports betting sites have two of the favorites have odds of -10000 or higher. That includes the U.S. at -10000 odds and Spain at a whopping -50000.

USA Vs. Vietnam

Moneyline: USA (-10000) vs. Vietnam (+4000), Draw (+2300)
Spread: USA -6, 6.5
Total: 6.5 Goals

There is absolutely no way that the U.S. is going to lose their first game of the group stage and especially against a team as inexperienced as Vietnam. The team itself has experience together but has never competed on the world stage of the World Cup. In fact, the women’s U.S. National Team is so strong that they haven’t lost a game since 2015 which includes two straight World Cup victories. As far as covering a -6,6.5 goal spread, the team has only won by 6+ goals once during their winning streak.

USA Women’s soccer also opened up as a strong +250 favorite to three-peat as World Cup Champions. With all said and done, this is not the time to mess with the underdog and some of the easiest money made could come from betting on the USA Women’s team.

Spain Vs. Costa Rica

Moneyline: Spain (-50000) vs. Costa Rica (+3500), Draw (+1700)
Spread: Spain -4,4.5
Total: 5 Goals

This is another David and Goliath story similar to the U.S. vs. Vietnam matchup as Spain is right on the U.S. tail with +400 odds to win the World Cup and plenty of experience to back that up. Costa Rica, on the other hand, sits with bottom five odds to win the World Cup outright at +100000.

Since the team began playing with one another in 2023, Spain has been as dominant as ever having gone 7-1 straight up and covering 4,4.5 goals three times. As for Costa Rica, they’ve played downright horrendous. They hold a 1-6-2 record in 2023 and have been shut out four times. This should be a clean win for Spain as they move on without any issues.

Switzerland Vs. Philippines

Moneyline: Switzerland (-500) vs. Philippines (+1100), Draw (+500)
Spread: Switzerland -1.5,2
Total: 3 Goals

From the standpoint of the World Cup Odds, there isn’t much going for either team in this match. Switzerland has +25000 World Cup odds while the Philippines has the longest odds of any other country at +200000.

This match could actually present an opportunity for bettors to take longer odds on a draw regardless of the Swiss team being heavily favored. While they haven’t notched a win yet in six games played in 2023, they’ve only lost once. All other five games have been draws. The Philippines though has shown tons of fight having gone 5-1 in their last six games.

If Switzerland could control the game and keep the Philippines contained, there could be another draw added to the column.
