FIFA World Cup Betting: France vs South Africa Odds

In a bit of drama, the France vs South Africa Group A match-up at 10:00am EST (16:00) should be interesting to say the least. Will the French show up for their last match after sitting out of practice in protest of Nicolas Anelka being sent home? Will Les Bleus manager Raymond Domenech be able to pull his squad together and receive a victory in the final Group A match of the finals? Will Bafana Bafana make things interesting with a victory over a France team in turmoil? All of these questions will be answered at Free State stadium with online bookmakers favoring France +135 in soccer odds vs South Africa +205 while a draw would return +215. France are also -1/2 goal (+135) point-spread FIFA World Cup betting favorites vs South Africa + 1/2 goal (-155) with the over/under total sitting at 2.5 OVER (-135).

Anelka had some choice words for coach Domenech after France lost to Mexico 0-2 last Thursday and was sent back home after refusing to apologize. Certain players decided to sit out of trainings in response for sending Anelka packing while captain Patrice Evra was seen arguing with a fitness coach. Despite the soap opera surrounding the French squad, Domenech is trying to portray confidence to the media. "The players vowed to do everything individually and collectively so that France regains its honor [against South Africa] on Tuesday," he read from a statement on Sunday.

Bafana Bafana came into the 2010 finals with the home team fan support and looked like a contender with a 1-1 draw vs Mexico in their opening match. Then the South African squad lost 0-3 to Uruguay which has caused plenty of speculation about which team will show up vs France. “You have to pick yourself up if you want to be successful," said midfielder Steven Pienaar. "They say if you want to be successful you have to go through turbulence and trials. And maybe the Uruguay game was one of those moments.” Bet South Africa +205 as underdogs in FIFA World Cup betting odds vs France with up to a $250 bonus and a 25% bonus when you refer 3 friends.

I really don't know what to say about this game. France is a mess, the team is frustrated and pride is all but lost for Les Bleus yet bookmakers still favor them in soccer odds? South Africa has an outside chance of qualifying and has turned in hard fought performances for the finals despite what the stats might say so I'm expecting the Vuvuzelas to be in full effect giving Bafana Bafana a 2-0 or 1-0 victory.
