Germany Early World Cup Exit Great for Bookmakers

Germany accounted for better than a quarter of all World Cup outright win bets at some bookmakers. Their early ouster resulted in some excellent results already for the bookmakers.

Germany, along with Brazil, were early favorites to win this year's World Cup.

William Hill put it best in describing Germany's dreadful play this month:

2014 – Germany were losing for a total of 8 minutes in the entire tournament

2018 – Germany were winning for a total of 1 minute in the entire tournament

England, long a disappointment in past World Cups, had their odds shorten to 8/1 immediately following Germany's exit.

Brazil, Spain and Belgium were favorites at between 4/1 and 6/1.

Germany comes into Saturday's match against Ivory Coast as a -200 favorite. Bookies and agents know most of their players will be all over Germany in this one. This match might be more about focusing on risk management than anything else for operators.

PPH World Cup Game Prop Bets - Netherlands vs. Sweden

Sweden's dominant performance over Tunisia and the Netherlands relatively short odds to go all the way, even after drawing with Japan, make Saturday's Netherlands-Sweden match one of the more exciting of this year's FIFA World Cup.
