Heading into the weekend, the theme at the 2023 Women’s World Cup continues to be the lack of goals in the group stage, which I believe opens up better prices going against this trend for a match between France and Brazil.
I believe we'll see goals in one of the best matchups of the tournament thus far when the two World Cup contenders square off.
At some point, these teams will start to take their chances created, and I believe we can start to see that turn and take advantage of it with this prop.
France vs Brazil Best Bet
Both Teams to Score (-115 via Caesars)
With all of the attacking talent on the field in a game between two nations who like to produce chances, I can’t look away from yes on the BTTS market.
If you start first with the French, this is the same side that scored in 4-of-5 matches at the UEFA Women’s European Championship last summer, averaging 2.9 xG and 3.6 big scoring chances per game.
France were also unlucky not to score in the draw against Jamaica to open this World Cup, generating 2 xG and three big chances.
Brazil are also accustomed to finding the back of the net, as the Canarinhas scored in every single match they played in 2022. They also racked up 4.3 xG and eight big scoring chances in the dominant win over Panama to start this competition.
Before the start of this tournament, I would never have priced the market in this way.
Once the odds have shifted too far, you have to take the value, even if it means you are going against the trends of how this World Cup has gone.
