Olympic Soccer Women's Odds for MatchDay 1

If you are looking for something to get you even more excited about the opening of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, what better way than to tun into some soccer.

The men’s tournament starts on Wednesday, while the women will start their quest for gold on Thursday with Matchday 1.

My Analysis

Unlike other major tournaments, where groups play on different days, all the nations taking part in the competition play on the same day in the Olympics.

What that means is that we have 6 games coming our way on Thursday, so let’s try and break them down, making betting predictions for each.

All Games on Thursday, July 25.

Canada -380 vs New Zealand +1000

Given that they are the defending Olympic champions and have won a medal in each of the last 3 Olympics, Canada has to be considered the favorite to medal again.

They will open their tournament against New Zealand, who were a little unlucky not to make it out of the group stage at the World Cup.

This should be a good one, but a slight nod to the champs.

Olympic Soccer Pick: Canada 2-1 New Zealand
Draw: +460

Spain -188 vs Japan +450

These teams met in the World Cup last year, with Japan winning that one in a rout, taking out Spain by a score of 4-0.

Despite that win, it is Spain, who eventually won the World Cup, who are favored to win this one, but I think the way to go in this game is to play the OVER, as I think we are going to see a lot of goals here.

Olympic Soccer Pick: Spain 3-2 Japan
Draw: +460

United States -2500 vs Zambia +4600

It pretty much goes without saying that the United States are one of the favorites to make a serious run at a medal in the Olympics.

That said, this is not an easy opening game by any stretch of the imagination, as this Zambia team is one that is very much on the rise.

Still, I think the US will be too strong.

Olympic Soccer Pick: United States 3-1 Zambia
Draw: +460
