The first World Cup Tournament was held in Uruguay in 1930 and was won by the hosts and since then there has been some great tournaments. Brazil hold the record for the most wins with five having won first in 1958 and most recently in 2002.
With the 2010 South Africa World Cup fast approaching we are only too aware that all you football punters out there are looking for those little tips that might help you make your 2010 summer that bit more lucrative. We are going to be trying to give you those little pointers right here over the coming months that may well give you the upper hand over the bookies when you are ready to try some World Cup Betting.
The 2010 World Cup is slightly different as this is the first World Cup that has been played on African soil so there is no history to judge the winner on. The weather may well play a key part as teams like England, Germany and France may benefit as the tournament will take place in the South African winter which should give cooler temperatures.
One good pointer to keep in mind when making your World Cup selection is the astonishing fact that no European team has ever won the World Cup when the tournament has been hosted outside of Europe. For instance, when the World Cup was hosted by United States in 1994 and South Korea/Japan in 2002, Brazil was the eventual winner on both occasions.
This is a stat that is reeled out every time the tournament comes around but it is unlikely to be a coincidence as it is constantly proved over and over again. The old adage is that the European teams do not travel well and if the trend continues then punters need to be looking outside of the European teams in South Africa and this may in turn affect the odds provided by online betting web sites.
