Australia’s World Cup may be coming to an end, but punters are keen to go out with a bang, with almost double the amount of bets being placed on the Socceroos over Spain with online bookmaker sportsbet.
SPECIAL OFFER: Deposit $50 BET with $200 on the Socceroos
The interest in the Socceroos has seen their price firm from $7.50 to $7.00 as a result, with Spain still favourites despite drifting from $1.40 to $1.44.
It’s all or nothing for punters, with the draw at $5.20 failing to attract much attention.
“If the Socceroos can cause an upset it will cost us well over a million dollars, but to be honest, given how well they have played, this might be one time we may be happy to take a hit, even if it is a really big one!” said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.
In good news for punters, if the Socceroos score a goal but go on to lose the game, Sportsbet will refund bets on Australia to win! Find out more HERE
