  • Lionel Messi has +145 odds to score, including extra time.
  • Mikel Oyarzabal has +200 odds to score.

NEW YORK – Highlighting the board of anytime goal scorers in the World Cup final between Spain and Argentina is none other than Lionel Messi (+145), and he will undoubtedly have the most action on his anytime goal odds.

Legal sports betting sites are favoring Messi across the board, which we fully support. Both Mikel Oyarzabal and Lamine Yamal highlight the anytime goal board as well.

Lionel Messi Goal Odds

In terms of Messi’s World Cup odds to score, it’s worth taking a look at his odds to score in regulation, including extra time, and odds to score or assist.

Messi Goal Props

  • Anytime Reg.: +155
  • Anytime Inc. Extra Time: +145
  • Score or Assist: -138

Messi is tied for the most total goals in the tournament with eight and also leads in the assist total. He’s gotten to this point with 34 shots taken, with 18 of them on goal. While he’s failed to score in Argentina’s last two matches, he’s recorded three assists of the five total goals across both matches.

He’ll be more than motivated to net one here with the Golden Boot still on the line. Kylian Mbappe is more than capable of taking the lead with multiple goals.

Kylian Mbappe is playing in the third-place game and is capable of taking the lead by multiple goals.

Mikel Oyarzabal

Mikel Oyarzabal is the leading scorer for Spain and tied for the fourth most goals in the World Cup with five. He has the second most shots on the team with 22 shots, with 50% of them on goal. Four of his five goals came with braces in the group stage against Saudi Arabia and in the Round of 32 over Austria. His latest goal was in the semifinal against France. He’s got +185 odds to score at World Cup betting sites, including extra time, and +200 to score in regulation.

Lamine Yamal

This is more of a wild card pick as Lamine Yamal has just one goal in his first World Cup in the 4-0 rout over Saudi Arabia. Although just a single goal, he’s not been shy of getting his share of shots with 23 shots to lead the team, with 10 of them on goal. Yamal has +250 odds to score including extra time and +270 in only regulation.
