South Africa 2010 World Cup Odds

Odds on South Africa to win Group A

Even though South Africa is the hosting nation they are still huge underdogs to win their group as they were very unlucky with the draw. South Africa ended up in the same group as France, Uruguay and Mexico which are all very capable teams. According to most of the bookmakers you find online South Africa is the team in Group A that is least likely to win. For those of you who think the host nation has a chance to win the group we would like to inform you that the online sportsbook Expekt have set the odds for South Africa to win the group at 6.75 which is a pretty decent odds. Just a $10 wager would give you a return of $67.5 should South Africa win the group. We understand that some of you out there might be from the US which makes you unable to sign up at Expekt and other EU facing sportsbook. If you are from the States then we really recommend trying the sportsbook at Bodog as they are still accepting players from the US and have several different deposit options set up for you. The odds for a group win for South Africa at Bodog is set at +600.

If it is a long shot that South Africa will even go through the group stages then we don’t have to tell you that it’s less than likely that the host nation will end up winning the whole 2010 World Cup. But stranger things than a 2010 South Africa win in the World Cup has happened and if you bet on them to win and they actually end up winning then you will be rewarded accordingly. The odds for South Africa to win the 2010 World Cup is currently 101.00 which means a $10 wager would give a $1100 return.
