A Few More WC Novelties

Posted In: Football, Promotions, Sports Betting

Here’s one last hurrah before the World Cup kicks off on Friday. Paddy Power has released another horde of novelty bets for punters to have a wager on, so head over to the online bookmaker to start winning big.

Bookies are still very worried that England might win the World Cup. If the Three Lions manage to pull off such a feat, online bookmakers are staring down the barrel of current payout odds of 8/1 – drifting from 6/1 ten days ago. While the majority of punters are tipping Argentina or the Netherlands to make an unlikely run to the World Cup final, there are still plenty of England faithfuls looking for a massive payout come the end of the tournament.

“Unusually England are yet to be the most popular team in terms of number of bets, suggesting some punters are weary of getting their fingers burnt yet again by a heart-breaking Three Lions failure,” Paddy Power spokesperson Darren Haines said. “It may also be a case that a more betting savvy nation is increasingly gambling with its head than its heart, but even though they may not be the most backed team, bookies still fear the potential payout on an England victory more than any other team.”

Here are a few of the latest bets that you can enjoy at Paddy Power, but be sure to head over to the online bookie for the complete list of standard and novelty World Cup bets.
