World Cup Odds: Are You Ready For Australia vs Chile?
June 13th, 2014 by G WaldorfSo the World Cup has started, and Brazil have maintained their unblemished record: they remain unbeaten in the first game of any World Cup, and their 2014 World Cup campaign is off and running. That first game hasn’t seen much a shift in the World Cup odds for Brazil, but have a look at Germany’s World Cup odds – they’re sitting behind Spain at $7.50 today…
And did we see some of what we can expect in this World Cup in the opening game? Brazil needed the rub of the green to get past Croatia, and they definitely got it, with a penalty that could charitably be described as soft, and a tasty little elbow from Neymar that was apparently not vicious enough to get him sent off. There was a real smell of controversy in the air along with the smoke from all the victory fireworks, and we’re just hoping that there won’t be any coming the way of Australia. The Socceroos meet Chile in their first game and it’s set to be an intriguing affair for Australia fans: the pundits have been keen to point out that Australia will need to curb their attacking instincts if they are to contain Chile, but everything we’ve seen and heard from Ange Postecoglu in the build-up to this World Cup tells us he won’t want his young charges to hold back.
So fasten your seatbelts, Socceroos fans, and get ready for the rollercoaster ride that is the World Cup. And make sure you’ve got all the Australia World Cup odds and specials before kick-off!
