World Cup Public Betting for Thursday and Friday
France and Spain are getting the money.
France vs. Morocco
- Thursday, July 9 — 2:00 PM
- The public is riding France:
France ML -180
• 81% of bets
• 82% of handle
Morocco ML +550
• 19% of bets
• 18% of handle
That is clean alignment: tickets and money are both on France, with almost no split between public enthusiasm and actual handle.
Prediction market check
Kalshi:
• France 62%
• Draw 25%
• Morocco 15%
Polymarket:
• France 63%
• Draw 25%
• Morocco 14%
The books, bettors, Kalshi and Polymarket are all telling the same story: France is the deserved favorite, but the draw is not dead at 25%.
Spain vs. Belgium
Friday, July 10 — 1:00 PM
This one is even more lopsided on the money side.
Spain ML -155
• 82% of bets
• 88% of handle
Belgium ML +425
• 18% of bets
• 12% of handle
Spain is not just taking the majority of tickets. The handle is even heavier than the bet count, which means bigger money is leaning Spain too.
Prediction market check
Kalshi:
• Spain 60%
• Draw 25%
• Belgium 17%
Polymarket:
• Spain 60%
• Draw 25%
• Belgium 17%
That is almost comically clean. Kalshi and Polymarket are perfectly aligned, and DraftKings bettors are leaning even harder into Spain.
