So, last night we got a last semi-finalist for the World Cup in Russia 2018! 

Croatia have beaten the hosts, Russia, after better penalty shootout. This is the huge success for Croats after 1998 when they were 3rd on World Cup in France. They gonna face England, who showed really good performance on this WC. Winner of this pair will be fighting for the title with the winner of second semi-final, France against Belgium.


Title Winner Betting Odds

The Frenchman's have highest chance to win World Cup with (2/1) odds. The second candidate is England (11/4) followed by Belgium (14/5). Lowest chance are given to Croatia with (5/1) odds to win the title.

Semi-Final Betting Odds


France vs Belgium

In the first semi-finals where France meet Belgium, advantage is given to France with (17/11) odds to win the match. Belgium are not considered favorites for this match so (36/17) is quite good for them. For the draw we got most realistic odds (23/10). 

I really think that we could see a rain of goals in this semi-final match. Both of opponents, Belgium and France showed us that, they can play really offensive football on this WC. France are hopping to repeat success from 1998 when they conquer the planet, but for Belgium Golden Generation, this is now or never. 


Croatia vs England

England is claimed to be favorites in this match, so the bookies give us (11/8) odds if England win this match. On the other side, with (13/5) odds if Croatia wins, seems like no one count on Croats in the finals. For the draw in this match odds are (43/19).

It will be really hard match for both side. Both teams play similar type of football. Croatia have a lot better midfielders than England, so I think that Croatia will be dominant team on the pitch. Also the corners and free kicks are some spheres in football where Croats are better rather then England. Their only chance is fast wingers, where they can go through Croatian defense, with Harry Kane in the middle of attack waiting for some return ball from wingers. I think that we ain't going to see a lot of goals. Maybe one or two. There are 90% chances that the winner will be decided after penalties.
