World Cup 2026

BetMGM is the best online sportsbook for 2026 World Cup Odds, whether you’re backing defending champions Argentina or fancy Canada to go on a surprise run to the latter stages.

World Cup Spreads

Spreads are available for every World Cup match at BetMGM. The spread is a way of handicapping the favoured team.

For example, if Brazil are -1.5 against the USA, this means Brazil are the favourites to win the match. A wager on Brazil would only pay out if they won by two or more goals.

As the underdog in this instance, USA +1.5 would be marked as a winner if the match ended in a draw, the USA won, or they lost by one goal.

Most World Cup spreads will be 0.5 or 1.5. Matches with a heavy favourite will sometimes go up to 2.5 or 3.5.

World Cup Moneylines

A moneyline bet is the simplest wager you can place on a World Cup fixture.

Backing a team on the moneyline is a bet on them to win the match. The favourite will have shorter odds than the underdog.

For example, France might be -180 to beat Spain in the World Cup. A $10 wager on France would have a potential payout of $15.56, including the stake.

World Cup Total Goals

Each World Cup fixture will have a line set for the total number of goals.

This will be 2.5 for most fixtures. Some will go up to 3.5 or 4.5.

Bettors then wager on whether there will be under or over this number of goals in the match.

So, if England are facing Germany, you may choose to bet over 2.5 goals. This wager would win if there were three or more goals in the match. An under bet would win if there were zero, one, or two goals.

World Cup Parlays

World Cup parlays are when multiple selections are combined into one wager. The odds of the bet increase each time a selection is added, as all picks need to win for the bet to pay out.

This is a way to combine different markets. You might pick Portugal to cover the spread, the Netherlands to score over 1.5 total goals, and Canada to win their match.

World Cup Live Betting

BetMGM offers live betting on every World Cup match.

Live betting, sometimes called “in-play betting,” is when bets are placed once a match has kicked off.

Odds are updated throughout the match depending on how the action is unfolding.

World Cup Futures Betting

World Cup futures can be wagered before and during the tournament. The tournament winner market is available years before the opening game kicks off.

You can place various futures wagers, including top goal scorer, group winner, and a team’s stage of elimination.

World Cup Prop Betting

World Cup prop betting covers game, team, and player props.

You can bet on which team will score the first goal, how many goals a team will score, and if a player will be carded, along with an array of other markets.
