2023 FIFA Women's World Cup Argentina vs. South Africa odds, picks, predictions: Best bets for Thursday's match from esteemed soccer expert
Teams looking to avoid early elimination meet at the 2023 Women's World Cup on Thursday when Argentina takes on South Africa in a Group G matchup. The Argentinians are coming off a disappointing 1-0 loss to Italy after having seemingly sewed up at least one point. A goal by Cristiana Girelli in the 87th minute, however, provided the Italians with three points. South Africa also looked like they were going to at least get one point, taking a 1-0 lead over Sweden in the 48th minute, only to have them tie the score in the 65th minute and the game-winner in the 90th minute.
The match from Forsyth Barr Stadium in Dunedin, New Zealand, kicks off at 8 p.m. ET. Argentina are the +115 favorites (risk $100 to win $115) in Caesars Sportsbook's latest Argentina vs. South Africa odds, with South Africa at +260. A draw is priced at +200 and the over/under for total goals scored is 1.5 (For more soccer coverage, click here.)
