Germany enter as heavy favourites and, although both Ecuador and Ivory Coast are no slouches, it&#8217;s clear too see why. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>World Cup debutants, Curacao, round out the group and their chances of coming top look slim. Ecuador had a great qualifying campaign, conceding just five goals in 18 matches, and Ivory Coast are always dangerous. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s hard to look past Germany, though. They are one of the most successful nations in World Cup history and, aside from a couple of blips over the years, have been consistent in their success in the group stages. A \u00a310 stake on Germany to win Group E would return \u00a314.93.<\/p>\n\n\n    <div class=\"sq-top-tips\">\n\t\t\t\t            <div class=\"sq-top-tips__head\">\n\t\t\t\t                    <span class=\"sq-top-tips__head-title\">Group E<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t            <\/div>\n\t\t        <div class=\"sq-top-tips__content sq-accordion\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t                <div class=\"sq-top-tip sq-accordion__item\">\n                    <label class=\"sq-top-tip__info sq-accordion__label\">\n                        <input hidden type=\"checkbox\" class=\"sq-accordion__opener-input\">\n                        <span class=\"sq-top-tip__info-box\">\n                            <span>Group E<\/span>\n                            <time class=\"sq-top-tip__date\" datetime=\"2026-06-11 20:00\">\n                                <span class=\"sq-top-tip__time\">\n                                    11 Jun 20:00                                <\/span>\n                            <\/time>\n                        <\/span>\n                        <span class=\"sq-top-tip__title sq-accordion__opener\">Germany to win<\/span>\n                    <\/label>\n\t\t\t\t\t                <\/div>\n\t\t\t        <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t            <div class=\"sq-top-tip__buttons\">\n                <span class=\"sq-top-tip__buttons-text\">Best Odds<\/span>\n                <span class=\"sq-btn sq-btn--image\">\n                                            <span class=\"sq-btn__icon\" style=\"background:#ff6600\">\n                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/05\/01160358\/easybet.svg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" \/>                        <\/span>\n                    \t\t\t\t\t                        <span class=\"sq-btn__odd\">\n                            67%                        <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t                <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t                    <span class=\"sq-btn sq-btn--secondary no-offer-available is-disabled\">PLACE BET<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t            <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t            <div class=\"sq-top-tip__tc\">\n                <div class=\"sq-top-tip__tc-text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t18+ | T&#038;C&#8217;s Apply | begambleaware.org                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n\t\t    <\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-group-f\">Group F<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Group F sees Netherlands enter as favourites to top the group but there could be some stiff competition.

Reigning world champions, Argentina, are in Group J and their nearest challengers look to be Austria. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other two nations in the group are Algeria and Jordan, with neither likely to trouble Argentina. If Austria can claim a result against the group favourites then they stand a chance but Argentina are the clear favourites. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We can&#8217;t look past Argentina in Group J, even at such short odds. The world champions should have more than enough to overcome the challenges in Group J and we&#8217;re confident in backing them. A \u00a310 bet on Argentina to win Group J would return \u00a313.89.<\/p>\n\n\n    <div class=\"sq-top-tips\">\n\t\t\t\t            <div class=\"sq-top-tips__head\">\n\t\t\t\t                    <span class=\"sq-top-tips__head-title\">Group J<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t            <\/div>\n\t\t        <div class=\"sq-top-tips__content sq-accordion\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t                <div class=\"sq-top-tip sq-accordion__item\">\n                    <label class=\"sq-top-tip__info sq-accordion__label\">\n                        <input hidden type=\"checkbox\" class=\"sq-accordion__opener-input\">\n                        <span class=\"sq-top-tip__info-box\">\n                            <span>Group J<\/span>\n                            <time class=\"sq-top-tip__date\" datetime=\"2026-06-11 20:00\">\n                                <span class=\"sq-top-tip__time\">\n                                    11 Jun 20:00                                <\/span>\n                            <\/time>\n                        <\/span>\n                        <span class=\"sq-top-tip__title sq-accordion__opener\">Argentina to win<\/span>\n                    <\/label>\n\t\t\t\t\t                <\/div>\n\t\t\t        <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t            <div class=\"sq-top-tip__buttons\">\n                <span class=\"sq-top-tip__buttons-text\">Best Odds<\/span>\n                <span class=\"sq-btn sq-btn--image\">\n                                            <span class=\"sq-btn__icon\" style=\"background:#ff6600\">\n                            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/05\/01160358\/easybet.svg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" \/>                        <\/span>\n                    \t\t\t\t\t                        <span class=\"sq-btn__odd\">\n                            72%                        <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t                <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t                    <span class=\"sq-btn sq-btn--secondary no-offer-available is-disabled\">PLACE BET<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t            <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t            <div class=\"sq-top-tip__tc\">\n                <div class=\"sq-top-tip__tc-text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t18+ | T&#038;C&#8217;s Apply | begambleaware.org                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n\t\t    <\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-group-k\">Group K<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Group K sees Portugal enter as favourites but there might be a bit more to things, with Colombia and DR Congo both looking capable of pulling off a shock. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Uzbekistan are the final nation in Group K but are unlikely to push things at the top of the group. If Portugal drop points against any side, though, they could find their place at the top of Group K under threat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We just can&#8217;t see it happening, however!

Croatia stand the best chance of displacing England, while Ghana would need a heroic effort to overcome both of those nations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;re backing England to win Group L, although it might not be quite as straight-forward as many Three Lions fans would hope. A \u00a310 bet on England to win Group L would return \u00a314.49.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none\">\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a
