Mexico vs England Betting Odds
7bet offers competitive betting odds for all FIFA World Cup matches, including this fixture.
Please note that the odds mentioned below are accurate as of the publishing time of the article.
1X2 Odds
| Mexico (1) | X | England (2) |
| 21/10 | 21/10 | 13/10 |
This is one of the most common markets in football betting. Bettors can pick one out of three possible outcomes:
- 1: Home team (Mexico) wins
- X: Draw
- 2: Away team (England) wins
If your chosen outcome is successful, your bet pays out based on the odds provided by the bookmaker. UK sportsbooks use fractional odds, where the denominator indicates the bet amount, and the numerator is the expected return.
If you examine the Mexico vs England betting odds in the 1X2 market, the odds are 21/10 for Mexico, 13/10 for England, and 21/10 for a draw. In fractional odds, the denominator is the bet amount, and the numerator is the expected return. This means a successful bet on Mexico will pay £21 return for every £10. Correctly predicting England’s win at 13/10 odds will pay £13 for every £10, and a draw pays £21 for every £10. Stakes on winning bets are also refunded.
Upon simplifying the odds, bets on Mexico pay £2.1, while bets on England pay £1.3 per pound. This means bookmakers consider England to be stronger in this fixture, which is why bets on this team pay a low return. When an outcome is considered more likely, it is given “short” odds. On the other hand, teams with a low chance of winning are given “long” odds, which pay more.
However, this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t bet on Mexico. They have the home advantage and an impressive record at this stadium. They have been beaten only twice in 89 competitions there. Moreover, odds don’t affect the actual outcome. Research both teams’ form before placing your bets. You can also consider safer markets like Double Chance or Handicap for a favourable return.
Double Chance
| Mexico or Draw | Mexico or England | Draw or England |
| 9/17 | 1/3 | 8/25 |
Double Chance is a variation of the 1X2 market. Bettors can pick two out of three outcomes simultaneously:
- Mexico or Draw (1X)
- Mexico or England (12)
- Draw or England (X2)
Consider this market if you believe we’ll see a tightly contested game on Monday, and predicting a result may be difficult.
Your probability of winning in Double Chance is higher than 1X2, since you get to pick more options. But this also means that your payout will be lower, as your chances of winning are higher. You have a 66% probability of winning in this market (betting on 2 out of 3 outcomes) compared to 1X2’s 33%.
Handicap Betting Odds
| Mexico (+0.25) | England (-0.25) |
| 10/13 | 10/11 |
| Mexico (+1.75) | England (-1.75) |
| 1/10 | 11/2 |
| Mexico (-0.75) | England (+0.75) |
| 11/4 | 4/17 |
A handicap bet is designed to give an advantage to your chosen team and a similar disadvantage to the other team. For example, you award a +1 advantage to England. This means 1 point will be added to their final goal tally. Similarly, 1 point will be taken away from Mexico. So, if the match ends 3–2, the handicap adjusted score will be read as 2–3.
Adding a handicap ensures your chosen team gets a head start. However, it is important to consider the goal difference when selecting a handicap. The bigger the handicap, the bigger the goal margin needs to be for the other team to overcome the gap.
Here are a few examples of how your bet will pay out with different handicaps:
- Mexico (+0.25) / England (-0.5): Bets on Mexico win in case of a draw. A 0.25 bet is split into two bets of 0 and 0.5. So, in case of a draw, only 50% of the bet pays while the stake for the other bet is refunded.
- Mexico (-0.75) / England (+0.75): Bets on England win if they win, draw, or lose by one goal, as a score of 1–0 will be adjusted to 0.25–0.75. Mexico will need to win by a two-goal margin to beat the handicap.
- Mexico (+1.75) / England (-1.75): Mexico gets a three-goal advantage as a score of 0–3 will be adjusted as 1.75–1.25. England will need to win by four goals to overcome the gap (0–4 becomes 1.75–2.25).
Both Teams to Score (BTTS Odds)
| Yes | No |
| 13/12 | 4/6 |
Consider the clean sheets (when the opposition team’s score is zero) for both teams in this market. Mexico kept eight clean sheets in their last 10 matches, while England kept six.
These statistics will help you decide how to pick the Mexico vs England odds in the BTTS market. The higher the clean sheets, the higher the chances for BTTS No bets. This market wins if the final score has a zero, like 0–0, 2–0, 0–1, etc.
Choose BTTS “Yes” if you believe that the score will be at least 1–1 or higher, meaning both teams will score at least once.
Goal Total (Over/Under) Odds
| Over 2.5 | Under 2.5 |
| 27/20 | 6/11 |
For this fixture, the default betting line is set at Over/Under 2.5, and the goal total can be adjusted between Over/Under 0.5 and 4.5.
In the above example, an Over 2.5 bet pays if the combined goal total is three or higher. An Under 2.5 bet pays if the combined goal total is two or lower. For example, scores like 2–1, 2–2, 3–0, etc., will pay out for the Over 2.5 bet. Similarly, scores like 0–2, 0–0, 2–0, 1–1 will pay out for an Under 2.5 bet.
Mexico averaged 2.1 goals in their last 10 matches. England averaged 1.7 goals in the same period. This brings their average combined goal total to 3.8, which is over the 2.5 betting line. Use this data when considering the Mexico vs England odds in the Over/Under market.

In the Correct Score market, bettors need to predict the precise final score. This can be a difficult market to bet on as it involves risk and guesswork.
