It is interesting that two of the last five World Cup Finals have ended in a draw, meaning the game required extra time and penalties to settle it. In both games there were no goals in extra time, proving that neither team was willing to take too many chances with so much at stake so in running traders may want to back no next goal if extra time occurs. With two of the games having penalties it may also proce that betting on your favoured team to win the match on penalties could prove value.
Something that really stands out in the World Cup Final is the amount of goals, and specifically the lack of them. In the last five World Cup Finals there have been just eight goals, compare that to the third place playoff over the same period of time and in those fixtures there have been nineteen goals.
There were five out of the possible eight clean sheets at the World Cup which is a very strong stat, you may want to consider backing the favourites to keep a clean sheet and also to win to nil as over the past five World Cups no side has won a World Cup in 90 minutes having conceded a goal. This means in running punters should back the team who scores the first goal to win the match.
Just one of the last five World Cup Finals have had over 2.5 goals, and that only did so by the smallest of margins when France beat Brazil 3-0. That may have been a bit of a freak game with star player Ronaldo suffering seizures before the game which will have not helped Brazil's chances or morale one bit. In all likelihod the next World Cup Final will have less than 2.5 goals.
