    What is the World Cup?

    updated April 21, 2018

    It’s the culmination of an elimination style soccer tournament contested over four years between virtually every country in the world.

    Who makes up the competing teams?
    The teams are made up from a country’s best players across the world, a kind of all-star team for each country.

    How did the teams get here?
    Finishing top or near the top of regional competitions held throughout the four years, the six regions are North America, South America, Africa, Europe, Asia and Oceania (New Zealand area).

    When is the tournament?
    It spans about 30 days starting in mid June.

    Where is “The Final” held?
    In stadiums throughout the country of Russia.

    What does the winning team get?
    35 million dollars for their countries soccer organization.

    Who should you pull for?
    Your home country, the favorites (Brazil, Germany, Argentina, Spain), the underdogs (New Zealand, Panama, Algeria, Iran), Teams with the best players (Argentina-Lionel Messi, Brazil-Neymar, Portugal-Cristiano Rinaldo, Uruguay-Luis Suarez), Teams with the best story: Bosnia-Herznagovnia (first tournament for this country that suffered through the ravages of the Bosnia-Serbia-Croatia War in the 1990’s) Iran (their players have been told not to trade their jerseys with the opposing teams at the end of a game (a soccer tradition) so as to save money).

    What is soccer?

    Posted 2014
    My starting eleven for Ghana Monday June 16, 2014 5:00 PM Central Time

    Soccer requires 22 players on the pitch (playing field), 11 for each team.

    One goalie – the player directly in front of the net/goal who can use his hands to block the other teams attempts to kick the ball into the net/goal.

    Four defenders – players spread across the pitch in front of the goalie who inhibit the other team from advancing the soccer ball close to or into the net/goal.

    Five mid-fielders – players in front of the four defenders charged with protecting their own goal as well as attacking the opposing teams goal box.

    One striker (forward) – plays in front of the midfielders close to the opposing teams goal and tries to facilitate the soccer ball going into the opposing teams goal.

    The last December before the June/July final the 32 teams are drawn into eight groups of four. The top 7 seeds based on the FIFA World rankings and the host nation are drawn from the first pot, placing a top seed in each group. The remaining teams…

2018 World Cup Betting Pools 2019

2018 FIFA World Cup™

FIFA, in conjunction with its integrity partners and in particular with its service provider Sportradar, identify and analyse betting behaviour and patterns across a number of international and domestic football competitions around the globe, including the recent FIFA World Cup™ in Russia.

Following the conclusion of the 21st edition of the FIFA World Cup, an analysis of betting turnover was carried out by FIFA and Sportradar. This analysis found that total global betting turnover for the tournament was an estimated €136 billion and no match manipulation behaviour was detected.

The average match of the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia had an estimated global betting turnover of €2.1 billion with the final, between Croatia and France, generating an estimated €7.2 billion in betting turnover worldwide. Croatia had the highest average betting turnover per match, and in all likelihood, would have been a very profitable team for bookmakers globally with:

2018 World Cup Betting Pool Grid

  • Opening odds of around 34.0
  • Being the underdog in their victories against Argentina and England
  • Round of 16, Quarter and Semi Final matches all being decided during extra time or by penalty shootout. Since bookmakers settle all match winner bets based upon the result after 90 minutes, the three draws in those matches would have been the least favoured by bettors

Besides various measures taken by FIFA to prevent and address potential situations of risk associated with match manipulation prior and during the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia, the competition was closely monitored for any instance of suspicious betting patterns around matches, in order to preserve fairness for fans, players and the tournament itself. Sportradar’s Fraud Detection System monitored over 550 betting operators worldwide, generating some alerts during the competition, which are easily explained by markets adjusting the opening odds after the first match or two were played.

Following an in-depth, qualitative analysis of the overall volume and movement odds within the betting market, no matches at the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia were found to be suspicious of match manipulation or betting fraud.
