The Olympic football tournament kicks off today with host nation and top contenders France taking the field.
Spain, fresh off their victory in Euro 2024 in Germany, also start their campaign, along with Argentina.
After analyzing the upcoming matches, we have selected some betting options that we believe offer great value.
All odds mentioned are accurate as of 10:50, July 24 via bet365
Uzbekistan v Spain
Spain boasts a strong squad with depth that many teams envy at the Games.
Their team includes two European Championship winners, Alex Baena and Fermin Lopez, as well as a solid group of over-age players – Juan Miranda, Sergio Gomez, and Abel Ruiz.
With defenders like Eric Garcia and Pau Cubarsi, along with 17-year-old talent who shined at Barcelona last season, Spain looks poised to overpower Uzbekistan.
We predict Spain to secure a comfortable victory.
Tip: Spain to win with a -1 handicap at odds of 10/11.
France v United States
As the host nation, France will have strong support as they aim to improve on their Euro 2016 final loss to Portugal.
Despite some player withdrawals, Coach Thierry Henry can rely on a squad with a blend of experience, youth, and talent.
Captained by Alexandre Lacazette, the team could display a physical attacking duo with Crystal Palace’s Jean-Philippe Mateta.
Look out for Mateta teaming up with his former Palace teammate Michael Olise, now with Bayern Munich.
Keep an eye on Rennes midfielder Desire Doue, a target for top clubs like Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea, and Tottenham.
The United States won’t make it easy, but it’s hard to bet against France starting with a win.
Tip: France to win at odds of 4/7.
Guinea v New Zealand
New Zealand’s recent 3-1 defeat to Uzbekistan indicates they might struggle at the Games, while Guinea comes in with a confidence-boosting win against Argentina.
Captained by seasoned former Liverpool midfielder Naby Keita, Guinea looks set to outshine New Zealand.
Tip: Guinea to win at odds of 4/6.
