USA and Mexico... dark horses?

why not back them to qualify instead?

do you really think they will progress much further for an outright bet to be worthwhile?

At those odds, who cares?  Anyway you can always lay it back off further into the tournament.

cant see much of a nosedive in the price even if they get out of the groups

mexico historically go further than everyone expects but they will never win it and will always be seen as outsiders even if they get to the 1/4s

Obviously it is a punt, but I think it's a value punt.

I don't think the odds will change too much but good luck, may make a good trade if they get a good draw after the groups

Not even worth a trade IMO. If some of the big teams look very sharp during group stages, I could see the prices of these teams shifting by less than 20% if they qualify.

If you think they'll get through, just back them to qualify. That way you might double your money - which I very much doubt you'd do trying to trade them in the outright win market.

Sorry didn't write quick enough to see viddy's post. I concur.

Okay chaps thanks for your advice.

if mexico qualify from a very dodgy looking group A, i think they are capable of beating whoever they play from group B...

USA will more than likely qualify with england, but i think they will lose in the last 16 to germany or serbia...

Yhe teams in the market from holland down to portugal offer the best chance of trade post group stages for me.

Mexico have very few midfielders in there squad, I think they will struggle in the middle of the park
