New Zealand is hosting along with Australia, which is why the N. Zealanders open the festivities taking on Norway a massive underdog.
New Zealand’s underdog status is warranted. The Zealanders have a single victory in their last 5. Although the victory was by 2 goals, it was versus the soccer power that is Vietnam. Italy, Nigeria, and Argentina all beat New Zealand in the host nation’s friendlies leading up to this.
Norway beat Uruguay in February, but since then the Norwegians haven’t played great. Still, Norway took on much tougher squads and drew with top WC underdog Sweden in their last during their friendlies. The chalk covers.

World Cup Odds: Australia -1.5 -102 vs. Republic of Ireland +1.5 -124

Stadium Australia, Sydney Australia
The underdog hasn’t played great soccer. The Republic of Ireland shows a single win in their last 5. The victory came against Zambia. Like New Zealand versus Vietnam, Ireland beat a team they were supposed to handle, no problem.
Australia has won 4-of-5. Among the host nations, most feel the Aussies have a much better chance for a big time upset victory. After beating England in an international friendly in April, soccer handicappers must believe Australia is an underdog with a big shot of winning it all. The Aussie’s cover the handicap line.

Nigeria throws down against Canada in Thursday night’s main event. Both teams have World Cup dreams but both are also underdogs.
The Nigerians have won their last 3. However, the 3 teams Nigeria bested weren’t close to the 3 squads Canada lost against in 3 of their last 4.
The Canadians fell to the United States, Japan and France. Nigeria beat Costa Rica, Haiti, and New Zealand. No doubt, this will be a solid matchup. But at the end, we must take the 1.5 goals. Canada wins 1-0 and we score profit on the Nigeria spread line.
