It's less than seven weeks until the 2026 FIFA World Cup kicks off, meaning a feast of international football is on the cards this summer for punters!
One of the most liquid betting markets in the whole of sport, accompanied by a vast array of match and side markets, value is lurking everywhere for football bettors.
That's exactly what we'll be hoping to unearth in our six-part preview series over on YouTube!
Odds Now's head of content and veteran sports tipster Matt Hill is joined by one of our resident football betting writers and a current trader for a leading bookmaker, Felix Morson-Pate.
In this first episode, the lads tackle the Outright Winner market and give their thoughts on the important factors that go into unearthing value selections.
Completely unrehearsed, the guys also landed on the same 100/1 poke as their dark horse for this summer's tournament. You'll have to watch the episode to hear who that is, and the reasoning behind it!
You can check out our 2026 World Cup Betting Podcast above. Please make sure to give the video a thumbs up on YouTube if you enjoy it and hit subscribe to the Odds Now YouTube channel in order to be notified when new episodes drop.
