England 2018 World Cup Special Bets PT 2

In fact, it’s worth noting that the bookmakers list England as the slight underdogs in that contest and it’s going to be very interesting to see how the odds shape up - particularly when you think of the idea that the match could be a dead rubber with both teams having already qualified by beating Tunisia and Panama in the two previous fixtures.

The top goalscorer option is always an interesting wager for individual countries and it becomes even more lucrative as the tournament goes on because it seldom winds up actually being the outright favourite scoring the most goals if the team stays in the competition.

In tournaments like the World Cup or the European Championships, the matches aren’t as open as club level football and you frequently see match-winning goals scored by defenders and midfielders since so much tends to be decided from dead ball situations.

You also have the fact that second choice strikers can often emerge as the late heroes and rack up goals late on in any contests that wind up going on to be a genuine route.

As it currently stands, you’ll find that Harry Kane is trading at a very short price to be named as the top English goalscorer at the 2018 World Cup. Kane has long been looked to as England’s chief hope at the 2018 World Cup and his ability to finish off moves is second only to maybe the likes of Jamie Vardy.

He represents the classic English center forwards ability as well and he can score goals from headers and take other players out of the match with his physical ability and strength.
