USA had a very solid qualifying campaign and qualified with relative ease as many expected they would. Recent performances suggest the USA World Cup odds are more than fair.
USA are certainly capable of upsetting a few teams at the World Cup judged by their performance in the Confederations Cup in 2009. The USA World Cup Odds suggest they may struggle to get out the group but we think they will outperform their World Cup odds.
Back USA's stage of elimination to be the Quarter Final
USA look very fair odds to win the World Cup and although emerging as the best team looks unlikely, they should give you a decent run for your money.
Back USA to win the World Cup and then lay off if and when they qualify from the group. They should be much shorter odds by then, especially if they win the group.
Recommended Bet: Back USA to win the World Cup then lay off on Betfair once they qualify from the group stage.
We are predicting USA will outperform expectations at the World Cup. This means they should be bought in the outright tournament index and a profit should be assured once they qualify from the group.
