Croatia 4/1 to Win the World Cup

It feels a long time ago that the Group Stages in the World Cup tournament were all playing off, however they have long gone and we are now at the point in time that the winner of the World Cup 2018 will soon be decided.

It is of course France and Croatia that have made it through to the final game, and to be fair to both sides they have done so by playing top class football and both teams have found their very best form, and deserve their place in that final match.

As for which team will win that match, I will leave that up to you to try and predict, but to give you a few ideas and pointers as to just which types of bets you can place before the match starts, please do read on for there are a plethora of betting opportunities.

If you are convinced that the match will be determined without the need for extra time or a penalty shootout then the best odds currently up for grab can be found at betting sites such as Betfred, for they are offering France to win at 10/11, the draw is 9/4 and Croatia are readily available at high odds of 4/1 too.

Will the Match go to Extra Time or Penalties?

The match will certainly get exciting if it does go to extra time, and what betting way for the World Cup final in 2018 to be determined that by a penalty shootout!

There are betting markets available right now on which you can pick either France or Croatia to win during extra time or via a penalty shootout too. France to win in extra time is 8/1 and Croatia to do so is 16/1. France to win during a penalty shootout are on offer at Betfred at odds of 9/1 and the same odds are available at that betting site for Croatia to win via a penalty shootout too!

Who Will Score First?

Whichever team does score the first goal you are going to hear the fans roar their approval from miles away from the stadium, and you may have your own thoughts as to just which player will be the one that score first in this match.

Regarding the players and their respective odds that do appear to be attracting all the money on the player to score first betting markets it is Antoine Griezmann at 7/2, Kylian Mbappe at 9/2 along with Olivier Giroud at 5/1, Nabil Fekir at 7/1 and Ousmane Dembele at 8/1, all of whom play from France that punters are placing bets on to score the very first goal of the match.

It may just be the case that a player from the Croatia team will score first and with odds of 7/1 on Mario Mandzukic doing so and 9/1 on Andrej Kramaric coring the first goal and with all other players in the Croatia team available at odds of 10/1 or higher, it may be worth checking out those players and their respective odds!
