After last week’s draw in South Africa for the 2010 World Cup, online betting site bwin.com were quick to shorten Euro 2008 champions Spain to the 5/1 favourites. Spain and Brazil had previously both been available for 6/1.
Brazil have been drawn in the so called group of death with Portugal and Ivory Coast. Didier Drogba’s Ivory Coast had been thought to be the African nation with the greatest chance for success… but now the betting markets suggest they are to crash out in the first phase.
England, who are always popular with English bettors, are as short as 7/1 to lift the World Cup. And following a very successful qualifying we think it’s a great price.
