2010 Fifa World Cup Betting South AfricaWorld Cup betting just might be part of the puzzle that makes soccer truly a mainstream, moneymaking sport in the United States. The strategy has worked for a number of other sports, like horse racing. Even though soccer is not popular in the United States the way that football is, getting information for World Cup betting is very easy thanks to the internet and channels like ESPN. While World Cup betting is similar in many ways to soccer betting in general, there are some key differences that may affect betting strategy. Knowing these differences and taking them into account is the key to winning on your World Cup betting.Join the World's most popular Online Sportsbook and receive a 50% SIGN-UP BONUS + $25 FREE CASH!

The actual act of World Cup betting is no different than betting on any other soccer game. In the first column of the betting line, there will be the two teams that are meeting. The bookmakers would have calculated a number for each team earlier. That number is known as the spread. The underdog will have a positive number; the favored team will be the negative number. Let's say that the favored team is assigned the number -200. That means that you have to bet $200 to win $100 on this game. On the other hand, if a team is assigned the number +200, then if you bet $100 on that team to win and they do, you win $200. World Cup betting, like other soccer betting schemes, also offers straight bets that offer even money for a team to win, lose or tie. There are also side bets, where you can bet on a player to make a specific number of goals, or bet on a goalie to make a certain number of saves. Although the mechanics of World Cup betting are similar to those that appear in regular soccer matches, there are some additional pieces of information that may change your betting strategy. Most people include items like goalie strength, weather, and home field advantage into their overall sports betting strategy. In World Cup betting, you may want to reevaluate how strongly some factors play into your personal calculations. For one thing, there are no home/away teams on the World Cup circuit. Brazil and Croatia might be playing a match in Berlin, while the Netherlands and Argentina might be meeting in Frankfurt. This means that there is no real home field advantage. Sure, you can look at weather and field conditions, but the crowd is just as likely to be rooting for one team as they are another. This makes player strength, motivation, and momentum, all less concrete factors, way more important.
