Friday’s slate of matches is set to shake up the latest World Cup odds as several tournament favourites return to action in crucial group-stage clashes.
Brazil looks to rebound from a disappointing draw against Morocco when it faces Haiti, while the United States aims to build momentum after a dominant opening win over Paraguay.
Elsewhere, Morocco attempts to strengthen its grip on Group C against Scotland, and Turkiye battles Paraguay in what could become one of the most competitive fixtures of the day.
With futures odds markets already shifting after a dramatic opening round, soccer bettors are closely tracking how these results could impact the race to lift the trophy in 2026.
From Brazil’s outright odds drift to the USA emerging as a dark-horse contender, Friday’s action could create major movement across the best World Cup betting sites.

Brazil to Finish Top 4
Brazil will play its second group stage match on Friday against Haiti after opening with a 1-1 draw with Morocco. Scotland currently leads Group C with three points after notching an opening victory over Haiti, but Brazil is still a -200 favourite to win the group and advance to the knockout rounds.
The Brazilians are massive -100 favourites over Haiti, with the over/under set at 3.5 goals (over -125, under +105).
Our Pick: Brazil to Win World Cup +1200 (start of tournament +725)
Brazil to Win the World Cup
Brazil was also our best bet to win the World Cup amongst the nations with the shortest outright odds entering the tournament at +725. However, following its opening draw with Morocco, Brazil is now a longer -1200 to win the tournament.
Our Pick: United States to be Eliminated in Round of 32: +100 (+125 at start of tournament)
USA to be eliminated in Round of 32
The United States cruised to an opening 4-1 win over Paraguay in its opening match of the 2026 World Cup and will now square off Friday with Australia, which surprisingly pulled off a 2-0 victory over Turkiye in its opener.
USA is now a -250 favourite to win Group D, with Australia now having the second shortest odds to win the group at +350.
Although the Americans should cruise to the top of the Group D table, they’ll be in for a tough once they draw a battle-tested powerhouse in the knockout rounds.
