South Africa to score more than 6 goals looks rather large.
Best prices
4 or more is 13/10
5 or more 11/5
6 or more is 7/1 with Joke Korals

Given the record of the host nations 7/1 looks very big. Its a fairly open group they are in. 3 other teams don't have the most solid defences but are good going forward leading to open games possibly

I appreciate South Africa have struggled with scoring goals recently but think they will get a bit of help by the referees.
If they do go out in group stages its likely they may get the occasianal penalty or free kicks given to them to give them a chance of qualifying or if they are getting beat 3-0 etc. to even things up a bit and make it look less embarrassing.

Fifa will be going out of their way to help them and in an open group think its likely they will get at least 4 goals and based on that 7/1 for 6 or more looks overpriced.

People are obsessed with conspiracy theories.

Not a conspiracy theory. Just saying that given the record of hosts in past years they may perform better than expected than if they were  not hosts. Also would not surprise me if they got a few generous decisions because they are hosts. I can't see them getting pumped out in the first round and only scoring 1 goal or something. That would be quite embarassing for Fifa.
