World Cup 2006 is sure to be a thrill this year as 40 teams battle it out to become World Champions and along the way, there is sure to be jaw-dropping football action to boot. Will Brazil turn on their Samba magic? Will England prove to be unstoppable with their high-tempo all action game? Can France rekindle their form of 1998? Why not place your bet now on the team you think will triumph at this year’s tournament.
Before starting your World Cup betting, it is worth considering that no team outside of the continent the tournament is held in have ever won the World Cup, except one. Brazil looks to be favourites again for World Cup 2006 and with the likes of Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Robinho and Kaka in their ranks, you can understand why, so if you want to go for the safe bet, then the boys in yellow will no doubt take your fancy.
The European nations are well worth a punt however, as the winner usually comes from the home continent and 1 in 3 winners are the host nation. Germany will therefore be a strong contender in the World Cup 2006, though do they have enough class to be as ruthlessly efficient as they usually are? Perhaps France, England and Italy all look more likely this time out and with Italy having shown the best form historically, maybe they should be your World Cup bet.
Japan, South Korea and Australia have all shown great signs of promise, and while unlikely to have the class to go all the way, could be worth a bet to progress beyond the group stage. Can South Korea repeat their incredible feat from 2002 and reach the semi-finals of World Cup 2006? It’s a long shot but then you would be feeling a lot wealthier if you had bet on them last time out! Whatever team you decide to bet on, make sure you place your bet with Ladbrokes and be sure to enjoy the World Cup 2006 experience!
So, whether you’re looking to bet on the winners of World Cup 2006, seeking long odds by picking a lesser team that you think can get out of their group or hunting for other exciting bets like top goalscorer or most assists, Ladbrokes is the place to do it. Good luck with your bets during the World Cup!
