How to bet on World Cup matches
Match moneyline
Pick the team to win in 90 minutes (plus stoppage time). Extra time and penalties are usually separate markets in knockout rounds — check your book's rules.
Group stage & knockout futures
Bet tournament winner, group qualification, or stage-of-elimination before the match. Futures lock in price early but tie up bankroll for weeks.
Totals (Over/Under goals)
Wager on combined goals scored by both teams. Popular in low-scoring knockout matches and high-scoring group games.
