World Cup Odds: Lots Of Socceroos Fans Heading For Brazil
April 10th, 2014 by G WaldorfThe Socceroos are in a phase of regeneration, with a new generation of players looking to make their mark at the top level of the game, and against the very best opposition in the world. The FIFA World Cup in Brazil is the perfect opportunity for those young players to get a taste of the brightest of spotlights – but Australia’s draw could have been kinder and they’ll have to enjoy a generous slice of luck if they are to emerge from Group B. You can get all the World Cup odds you need by following the link – and take a look especially at Australia’s World Cup odds.
You’ll see that things will be stacked against the young Socceroos when they make the trip to Brazil and the World Cup – that $8.00 bet for Australia to qualify is one that’s tempting us, but probably more for reasons of patriotism than ruthless calculation. But one thing is for sure: the Socceroos won’t be making the trip alone, and they will be well supported by travelling Aussie fans who’ve made the long, long journey to Brazil. Now, the many and various charms of Brazil and the chance to have a holiday there might be playing a part here, but the figures coming out of the official World Cup ticketing services is an interesting one. In terms of sheer numbers, Australia accounts for more fans than any other country except the hosts Brazil and near(ish) neighbours America. There will be more than 40,000 Socceroos fans travelling to Brazil, and we’re looking forward to hearing them yelling Australia on. Just for reference, there are more than a million tickets that have gone to locals in Brazil, so you can expect a real party for those Australia fans to get involved in. We’re not even going to touch on the ridiculous number of corporate tickets that have been doled out, but if those million seats are filled with suits, we’ll be surprised.
So if you’re making the journey or not, make sure you’re up to speed with all the World Cup odds, and that you’ve checked out the Socceroos specials available already on Sportsbet – plus all Australia’s World Cup odds…
