Betfair Mexico v South Africa Offer | Get 50/1 for a goal to be scored + £5 Free Bet on any England game
New Betfair customers can claim odds of 50/1 for a goal to be scored in the 2026 World Cup opener between Mexico and South Africa.
In addition to that, they will receive a £5 Free Bets to use on any of England’s matches during the tournament.
The World Cup is set to dominate our lives for the next five-and-a-half weeks, and it all starts at Mexico City Stadium on Thursday.
Coincidentally, it will be exactly 16 years to the day since Mexico and South Africa contested the first match of the 2010 World Cup, playing out a 1-1 draw in Johannesburg.
You always expect the opener to be slightly nervy and edgy. Between 1966 and 1978, all four such matches failed to produce a single goal. That included Mexico’s 0-0 draw with Soviet Union in this very stadium 56 years ago.
However, there has not been a goalless stalemate at any opening World Cup match since, so it’s definitely worth gambling on that streak extending and making the most of Betfair’s offer.
