The event is being played in the middle of the club season due to the very hot weather in Qatar during the summer months when the World Cup is usually held.

World Cup Betting Favorites 

The favorites to win the 2022 World Cup, according to odds from BetOnline include: 

- Brazil         (+365)
- Argentina   (+550)
- France       (+700)
- Spain         (+900)

But Team USA is a big liability to sportsbooks including BetOnline.

Despite only 6.2% of the bets being on Team USA ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, the exposure to BetOnline is historic.

"Our liability on Team USA to win their first World Cup is growing by the day," Dave Mason, Brand Manager at BetOnline.ag said. "USMNT opened with 150-1 odds and we're currently offering them at 110-1. A USA win would be an upset of epic proportions, and it would lead to the biggest futures loss in company history." 

Mason added, "This Team USA liability is already 25% more than our Tiger Woods exposure, and ultimate loss, when he won The Masters in 2019. To date, our largest team futures loss was the Buccaneers in Super Bowl LV, and the red number on the U.S. in this World Cup is already 50% higher than that."  

Top 5 Liabilities 

1. USA
2. Argentina 
3. Mexico 
4. Serbia 
5. Denmark

All eyes will be on Qatar during the next month, and globally, there will be more wagered on this year's World Cup than the Super Bowl and March Madness combined.
