FIFA World Cup 2014 Odds
(The Spread) – Spain is coming off a Euro 2012 championship but The Red Fury isn’t favored to win FIFA World Cup 2014.
Oddsmakers currently list Brazil as a 7/2 favorite over Spain and the rest of the field to win the FIFA World Cup in 2014. Spain has the next best odds at 9/2 while Argentina is 6/1 and Germany is 8/1. Holland and Italy are both 16/1 to win, respectively, while England is 18/1 and Uruguay is 22/1.
Spain was virtually unstoppable at Euro 2012, running through France, Portugal and Italy in the Knockout phase to win this year’s title. In a matchup that was supposed to be more competitive Spain crushed Italy 4-0 in the Final, as David Silva, Jordi Alba, Fernando Torres and Juan Mata all scored for The Red Fury.
