Portugal Group K odds
Roberto Martinez’s Portugal are the massive favourites to win Group K after coming through their UEFA qualifying group with relative ease. They topped Group F in qualifying, losing just one of their six matches and scoring 20 goals in six games.
The options within the Portugal are clear to see – most notably Cristiano Ronaldo, who enters what should be his last World Cup, hoping to capture the one trophy that has alluded him in his career. He’s backed up by other elite talents, with Rafael Leao, Pedro Neto, Bruno Fernandes and Bernardo Silva all capable of producing match-winning moments in the final third.
Their midfield also looks to be one of the best around this summer, with PSG duo Joao Neves and Vitinha emerging as world-class talents in the past couple of years, while the defence features Ruben Dias, Andre Silva and Joao Cancelo.
Despite their strength in depth, though, Portugal were given a stark reminder that this group will not be a walkover by any means. Indeed, they controlled large periods of their opener against DR Congo – enjoying 75% of possession and completing over 700 passes – but had to settle for a share of the spoils.
Colombia Group K odds
Colombia were one of five nations that qualified from the CONMEBOL group that finished within one point of each other, highlighting just how closely matched the majority of South Amercian sides have become. They finished in third position, losing just four of their 18 matches but being the only side that qualified that conceded in excess of a goal a game.
This will be Colombia’s seventh time at the World Cup, with a quarter-final appearance in 2014 proving to be their best finish. They failed to qualify for the 2022 World Cup and will look to make amends in a group that sees them start as second favourites.
Uzbekistan Group K odds
This will be Uzbekistan’s first appearance at the World Cup as an independent nation after seven previous attempts to reach the biggest stage. This sees them as rank outsiders to win Group J and it would take a monumental effort for them to even qualify with the odds stacked against them.
Uzbekistan finished second in Group A of the AFC qualifying stage, two points behind Iran but six points clear of United Arab Emirates. They lost just once in their qualifying campaign, averaging 1.4 goals per game and conceding 0.7 times per game.
DR Congo Group K odds
DR Congo reached their first World Cup for 52 years when Axel Tuanzebe’s extra-time goal gave them a 1-0 victory over Jamaica in their inter-continental play-off final.
The Leopards have only played at one finals before, losing all three group games on debut as Zaire in 1974, conceding 14 goals without reply. However, they have already bettered that, thanks to Yoane Wissa’s header, which earned a 1-1 draw with Portugal.
The 10th African nation to reach this year’s expanded tournament. Sebastien Desabre’s side will fancy their chances of pushing Colombia close in second place in Group K, especially after they came up clutch in dramatic fashion at the end of March.
