England vs Ghana Match Odds
| Team | Spread | Moneyline | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| England | -2.0 (-110) | -525 | O 3.0 (-112) |
| Ghana | +2.0 (-110) | +1300 | U 3.0 (-108) |
The English team is a massive favorite over Ghana with -525 odds to win at legal sports betting sites and +575 odds to end in a draw, while Ghana is listed as a long shot with +1300 odds. Both teams secured a victory in their opening match, with England defeating Croatia 4-2 and Ghana beating Panama 1-0.
England dominated field position for the majority of their match despite just slightly having more possession, resulting in twice as many total shots and shots on goal as Croatia. Ghana held possession for just 38% of their match, as well as being outshot 11-7 by Panama with just two shots on goal, but still managed to hold off their opponent by allowing just four shots on goal, all of which were saved.
Harry Kane Any Time Goal Scorer (-174)
The biggest headline heading into the match is Harry Kane’s opportunity to make World Cup history, as he would surpass Gary Lineker as the all-time leading scorer for England with his 11th goal, should he score today against Ghana.
Kane scored twice against Croatia on seven shots, putting three of them on goal. He also may be facing Ghana’s backup goalkeeper, Benjamin Asare, after their starter Lawrence Ati-Zigi left the team’s first match with a groin injury.
Ati-Zigi has since returned to practice, though it was referred to as “light training” and groin injuries are notorious for lingering, so his status is still up in the air and he would likely be less than 100% should he be active for the match against England, making Kane’s scoring opportunities even more appealing.
By itself, betting on Kane as an any time goal scorer is just -174 odds, so it would need to be paired with another bet at World Cup betting sites. A good parlay pairing could be over 3.0 total goals at -112 odds, which the English team could certainly cover by themselves.
