The 2026 World Cup enters the quarterfinal round, starting on Thursday, July 9 with France to take Morocco in the semi-finals of the 2022 World Cup. France enter this stage as the favorites to win the World Cup on FanDuel, but are Les Bleus the best value bet on the board with eight teams remaining? Here’s a look at the latest World Cup odds ahead of the quarterfinals.
2026 world cup title odds (via FanDuel)
- France (+180)
- Spain (+370)
- In Argentina (+390)
- In England (+460)
- in Norway (+1500)
- Morocco (+2700)
- In Belgium (+3000)
- in Switzerland (+3000)
France has been honored for most of the World Cup after Spain drew with Cape Verde and defeated La Furia Roja. Les Bleus did nothing but score goals, although they only managed one win Paraguay In the round of 16. Spain have been promoted and are yet to concede a goal in this tournament, which gives bettors something to keep an eye on if they consider this squad to be favorites for the title. France and Spain will meet in the semi-finals if both win, so that’s another thing to keep in mind when betting on either team.
Argentina have had two scares in the knockout round so far, beating Cape Verde 3-2 in extra time before picking up one of the best points in World Cup history against them. Egyptscoring three goals from the 79th minute to win 3-2. Lionel Messi is the leader for the golden boot, but some of Argentina’s biggest mistakes are revealed by teams that may not get as many titles. La Albiceleste remain consistent in defense and rely heavily on Messi offensively, although others have stepped up in Egypt. I he wrote about Argentina offering a bet rate before the tournament begins, and despite some of the questions, it’s hard to shake the feeling that this team is set to keep winning. I put them in the semi-finals after beating Switzerland and given a place in the bracket, it’s hard to see them not having a chance to win back-to-back titles.
Perhaps the most impressive match of the quarterfinals is England vs. Norway, as the winner will face Argentina or Switzerland in the semifinal. The consensus says this is the “weakest” side in the bracket but England and Norway are more than capable of upending the defending champions if the Swiss are no custodians. Erling Haaland can score at any time, as Brazil find out. England survived the Estadio Azteca experience, but do they still have enough left in the tank after that big win? The Three Lions have a similar setup to Argentina, where they rely heavily on Harry Kane in attack, though. Jude Bellingham has emerged as a strong second threat. The good thing for England fans is that Brazil had an expected 2.61 goals against Norway despite having less than 40% of the ball. Norway benefited from poor finishing by Brazil and a fantastic effort from the goalkeeper Orjan Nyland. That formula isn’t sustainable, even if Haaland’s goals seem inevitable.
