2022 FIFA World Cup Qatar – USA betting odds update | Preview, Predictions and Future Bets on November, 22
The United States played 90 minutes in a World Cup once again, following its absence at Russia 2018. Although they started winning with a goal by Timothy Weah in the first half, they suffered the equalizer near the end from a penalty by Gareth Bale, the best player of the opponent of the day.
Let’s review how the USA’s odds for the Qatar 2022 World Cup changed after the result of their first game.
All odds shown are courtesy of DraftKings.
Odds to win the group (+800)
With the draw against Wales, the USA is in third place, two points behind leaders England, who defeated Iran 6-2. Although they still have to play against these two teams, they would have to win both games and even then, they would depend on other results. It will be difficult to win the group.
Odds to qualify for the round of 16 (+100)
Its last participation in a World Cup was in Brazil 2014, when it reached this stage. That was not his best run, given that in their best participation they ended up in third place. After seeing their performance in the first game, they have the material to aspire for the knockout round.
Quotas to qualify to quarterfinals (+400)
As things stand after the first presentation at the Qatar 2022 World Cup, if they reach the quarterfinals (ranked second) it is because they beat the Netherlands, potentially the first in Group A. It would be a close game, but today it is somewhat risky to think that they will manage to get through it successfully and thus get into the top eight.
Odds to qualify to semifinal (+1400)
Following the line of qualifying as 2nd in Group B, and after eliminating the 1st of Group A in the round of 16, they will have to play in the quarterfinals against the 1st of Group C or the 2nd of Group D. The United States only reached the equivalent of the semifinals of a World Cup in the first edition, the 1930 edition in Uruguay, almost 100 years ago. Almost 100 years ago!
Odds to qualify for the final (+5000)
It is highly unlikely that the USA will occupy a place that is generally occupied by established teams. However, a competition as short as a World Cup, and having seen how important teams were left without star players due to injuries, it could happen. Although this would be the greatest surprise in many years.
Quota to win the Qatar World Cup 2022 (+15000)
After the first U.S. game, DraftKings increased the odds on the U.S. winning the World Cup by 50%. It’s almost utopian, but boy, is it tempting to bet $100 and win $15,000!
JefeBet Prediction
The United States showed a good game in their presentation, and had the clearest chances to get on the scoreboard. The draw sounds a little unfair, but they should not stop with that, but rather adjust details in defense, since Wales arrived very little and always troubled them.
The fact that this European team has taken a defensive approach against USA means that they are a respected team. Therefore, looking ahead, the United States could easily reach the Round of 16, although it is likely that their journey could end at that stage.
Prediction: USA advances to the round of 16.
