Uruguay vs Spain Betting Odds
7bet offers competitive odds for all FIFA World Cup matches, including this fixture.
Please note that the odds are accurate as of the publishing time of the article. Make sure to check the latest odds before placing a bet.
1X2 Odds
| Uruguay (1) | X | Spain (2) |
| 6/1 | 3/1 | 5/11 |
The 1X2 market is a popular choice in football betting. It is a straightforward concept, where punters can bet on one out of the three possible outcomes of the match:
- 1: Home team (Uruguay) wins
- X: Draw
- 2: Away team (Spain) wins
UK sportsbooks use fractional odds where the numerator is the profit, and the denominator is the stake. If you examine the Uruguay vs Spain betting odds for the 1X2 market, the odds are 6/1 for Uruguay, 3/1 for a draw, and 5/11 for Spain. This means with 6/1 odds, you stand to profit £6 for every pound you bet on Uruguay (1) if they win. Similarly, successfully predicting Spain (2) to win the match at 5/11 odds will pay £5 for every £11, and correctly predicting a draw (X) at 3/1 odds will pay £3 per pound. Bookmakers also return the stake on winning bets.
Before placing your wager, make sure to carefully analyse which option gives you the best value for money. Bets with lower returns are said to have “short” odds. These pay less but are slightly more likely to win. On the other hand, bets with “long” odds pay more but are less likely to be successful.
However, it is important to note that the odds are based on prediction and don’t influence the actual outcome. Teams with long odds can still win the match. So, look at both teams’ recent form to decide which way to bet. You can also consider spreading your risk by choosing safer markets like Draw No Bet, Double Chance, and Handicap.
Double Chance
| Uruguay or Draw | Uruguay or Spain | Draw or Spain |
| 15/11 | 2/9 | 1/11 |
The Double Chance market gives you a double shot at a win. Instead of one outcome, you can select two options simultaneously:
- 1X: Home team (Uruguay) wins, or the match draws.
- X2: Draw or Away team (Spain) wins.
- 12: Either team wins. This bet loses if the match draws.
Double Chance increases your win probability to 66% ( betting on 2 out of 3 outcomes). However, your profit will be lower as the likelihood of winning is high. Consider this market if you are a cautious bettor and don’t mind the low payout.
Handicap Betting Odds
| Uruguay (+1.25) | Spain (-1.25) |
| 20/27 | 20/21 |
| Uruguay (+2.75) | Spain (-2.75) |
| 1/7 | 4/1 |
| Uruguay (+0.25) | Spain (-0.25) |
| 12/5 | 2/7 |
Since Spain lead the Group H table with one win, one draw, it can be assumed that they have an edge in this fixture. With this data in mind, choosing a positive handicap bet for Uruguay is a safer option. This bet gives Uruguay a head start by adding a fixed number of points to their final goal tally. A similar number of points is subtracted from Spain.
The final score gets adjusted based on your chosen handicap. For example, you selected a +0.75 handicap for Uruguay, and the final score is 0–1. The adjusted score becomes 0.75–0.25, and bets on Uruguay win, even though they lost the match.
Here are some examples of how your bet will pay out with different handicaps:
- Uruguay (+1.25) / Spain (-1.25): Bets on Uruguay win if they win, draw, or lose by 2 goals (0–2 becomes 1.25–0.75). Spain will need to win the match with a three-goal difference.
- Uruguay (+2.75) / Spain (2.75): This is an even bigger advantage as bets on Uruguay win if they win, draw, or lose by 5 goals (0–5 becomes 2.75–2.25). Spain will need to win by six goals to overcome the handicap.
- Uruguay (+0.25) / Spain (-0.25): Bets on Uruguay win in case of a draw. However, with a draw, only half your wager wins while the other half is refunded.
Both Teams to Score (BTTS Odds)
| Yes | No |
| 24/25 | 3/4 |
BTTS stands for Both Teams To Score. BTTS “Yes” bets pay if both teams score at least one goal during the full 90 minutes and stoppage time. So, any score that is 1–1 or higher will pay out on “Yes” bets.
On the other hand, BTTS “No” bets pay if either or both teams fail to score. This means BTTS “No” bets win on any score with a zero in it, like 1–0, 0–0, 0–2, etc.
Consider the clean sheet records of both teams when looking at the Uruguay vs Spain odds in the BTTS market. The higher the clean sheets (where the opposition team’s score is zero), the more chances that “No” bets may win.
Spain kept seven clean sheets in their last 10 matches, and Uruguay kept five. Use this data to lower your risk.
Goal Total (Over/Under) Odds
| Over 2.5 | Under 2.5 |
| 10/13 | 10/11 |
In an Over/Under bet, punters have to predict whether the final scoreline will be over or under their chosen total. For example, you choose to bet on over 2.5 goals. The final score total has to be at least three for your bet to win. So, any score like 2–1, 2–2, 3–0 is a winner. Similarly, under 2.5 bets win if the final total is under two goals combined. Scores like 2–0, 1–0, 0–0, 1–1, 0–2 will all win in this bet.
So, how to choose whether to bet over or under? Consider the average goal total of both teams when looking at the Uruguay vs Spain odds in the Goal Total market.
Spain averaged 2.3 goals in their last 10 matches, while Uruguay averaged 1.1. This brings their combined average goal total to 3.4, which is well over the 2.5 betting line. Use this data to lower your risk.
