Expekt.com (click
to visit) is fast becoming one of the nation's most popular online betting sites as well as poker, casino and bingo destinations. And with the 2010 FIFA World Cup just around the corner, football betting fans are gearing up to wager on their favourite teams, players and a variety of other 'World Cup specials' that cover a multitude of World Cup outcomes.
For instance, Expekt.com is doing a brisk business with World Cup betting fans confident they know which of the competition's 8 groups will collectively score the highest number of goals. As happens in just about every World Cup, when the groups are randomly drawn by FIFA, there are always some groups that contain weaker teams and some that contain the stronger teams.
A group that contains the biggest number of strong teams is known as the 'group of death', which for the 2010 World Cup is Group G as it contains Brazil, Ivory Coast, Portugal and North Korea. It will be interesting to see how many goals Group G scores versus say Group H, which contains Spain, Chile, Switzerland and Honduras, Spain being the only real contender.
As such, Expekt.com has laid the following odds for its
World Cup 2010 Highest Scoring Group bet:
Group A - 7/1
Group B - 6/1
Group C - 6/1
Group D - 7/1
Group E - 6/1
Group F - 5/1
Group G - 9/2
Group H - 5/1
