1- Brazil
The Brazilian team is under a lot of pressure after drawing the game with Switzerland, but things are not that bad for the team. They’re still the number one bet to win the trophy.

Still, Brazil is the safest team to place bets on.
2- Spain
Spain had to bear the loss of their head coach just a few days before the world cup started. Despite that, Spain has shown some superb skills in the field. Their football passing is superb. Although the team has got soft penalty twice by now, they have responded really well owing to the fierce form of their target man Diego Costa.

According to Didier Deschamps, they got a lot of opportunities during the game, they availed a few and lost some, but they could have done a lot a better. This shows France is all in for improvement and the basic betting tips suggest that it’s a viable team to place bets on.
