Spain pushed the Americans to their limit in the round of 16, but a pair of goals on penalty kicks from Megan Rapinoe helped secure USA’s appearance in the quarterfinals for an eighth consecutive World Cup.

While the U.S. has opened up as the betting favorite against the host nation France, it isn’t an overwhelming favorite like we’ve seen for most of the tournament.
You don’t have to look far as to why bettors aren’t heavily backing the Americans like they have in the past. France enters Friday’s matchup ranked No. 4 in the world right behind England, Germany and the United States. That coupled with France’s home-field advantage and the USWNT’s lackluster performance against Spain in the round of 16 has the odds shockingly in the Americans’ favor, albeit ever so slightly.
Here are the betting odds for Friday’s quarterfinal matchup between the United States and France, including the moneyline, over/under and prop bets.
