Balogun's Return Rocks World Cup Odds

FIFA's suspension of Folarin Balogun's red card has forced bookmakers to rapidly adjust odds for Monday's USA vs Belgium Round of 16 match. The US striker is now a co-favorite to score first (+525) and anytime (+145), while the USA has become a slight favorite in match odds.

Caesars Sports VP Craig Mucklow acknowledged the challenge: "We built our prices based on the USA's top goalscorer not playing. Now, he's the co-favorite...so we're scrambling." The public continues to heavily back the USA, with 72% of tickets and 79% of money wagered on the US to win. forumteam.blog
