2022 World Cup betting guide: Here's how to get in on the fun!

The World Cup is well underway. Sure, they're playing it in November instead of the summer. And a lot of people are less than thrilled about where it's being played. Oh, and then there's the whole no beer thing.

But none of that should prevent you from making some money on the outcome, so here's a few tips on betting the 2022 World Cup, from Yardbarker's own Matt Weisenfeld.


Group A: Ecuador, Netherlands, Qatar, Senegal

There are so many ways to bet on this premier international event. The goal here is to pick off some values in the Group Stage of the event. As for Group A, the Dutch are the only team in the group to have any real success on the international stage. They should have an easy time winning and advancing.


Group B: England, Iran, USA, Wales

Any group with England in it is bound to have a lot of eyes on it. Throw in the United States and there is a lot of intrigue for sure. A lot of very good teams too.


Group C: Argentina, Mexico, Poland, Saudi Arabia

Lionel Messi has already announced that this will be the last event where he suits up for Argentina. That does not mean the squad is going to do any better than previous disappointments, but it is an enduring storyline for as long as they are in the event.  


Group D: Australia, Denmark, France, Tunisia

France is one of the best clubs in the world and the defending World Cup champs. They are not expected to get much resistance at this stage of the event.


Group E: Costa Rica, Germany, Japan, Spain

This is one of the most competitive groups in this stage of the competition. Germany and Spain are two clubs that definitely have the talent to win it.


Group F: Belgium, Canada, Croatia, Morocco

Canada is in the World Cup for the first time in a generation. They might not make it out of group stage but more power to them.


Group G: Brazil, Cameroon, Serbia, Switzerland

Brazil is the elephant in the room in the group. Maybe that is the wrong analogy, but they are considered the top squad in the world and the favorite to win it all.


Group H: Ghana, South Korea, Portugal, Uruguay

Portugal is definitely the headliner in this group, what with Cristiano Ronaldo still one of the most recognizable players in the world.  


But wait, there's more . . .

And if that's not enough to make you an instant expert, here are some other angles for you to soak up ahead of the action, from our good friend Aundre Jacobs at OddsChecker:
