World Cup Preview: United States vs. Vietnam Bets, Picks & Analysis

Women's World Cup United States vs. Vietnam Best Bets

• Alex Morgan to score first is +185 at DraftKings Sportsbook
• Sophia Smith to have one or more shots on target in each half is -270 at FanDuel Sportsbook
• USA to win and over 5.5 goals in the game is -244 at Caesars Sportsbook

At odds of -20000 to beat Vietnam, USA has the lowest odds of any team to win on matchday one at the Women's World Cup and is one of the lowest-priced teams in any tournament of women's soccer.

The Stars and Stripes are looking to win the World Cup for the third time in a row and for the fifth time overall, and it should sail through Group E against Vietnam, Portugal and the Netherlands.

Here is our soccer betting breakdown for the USA vs. Vietnam matchup.

Best United States World Cup Soccer Betting Prop

Given the incredible odds in this game and the expectation of many goals for the USA, finding the odds in a goalscorer market is a tough search. However, after 121 goals in 207 games, Alex Morgan is set to start once again for the USA and is the most likely player to grab the first of many goals.

Morgan also scored the first goal in the last competitive game for the USA, as it defeated Brazil in the SheBelieves Cup.

There will no doubt be countless efforts on the Vietnam goal and every American player will be aiming to get in on the act. Nobody, however, is more qualified to do so than Morgan.

Sophia Smith World Cup Betting Prop

What a season it has been so far for Sophia Smith. The offensive star has so far scored 10 goals in 13 games in the NWSL and is the leading goalscorer in the division. She also has five assists in the NWSL and is arguably the top player in world soccer right now.

Smith will likely start the game alongside Morgan in offense and she will no doubt get a few shots away on the Vietnam goal. In fact, Smith is priced lower than any other player on matchday one to have just one shot on target at -7000.

United States Women to Dominate Vietnam at World Cup

The -20000 moneyline is the lowest any team has been priced at a Women’s World Cup game. In fact, this game sees the favorites USA take on the biggest underdogs to win the World Cup, as Vietnam has odds of +43000 to triumph in Sydney at the end of August.

Ultimately, this is going to be a mauling for Vietnam, as the USA has over 350 goals throughout its squad. What's more, only one of the 23 players at the World Cup for Vietnam plays outside of the Vietnam Women's Championship, and these players will not be a threat to the Stars and Stripes.

This year already, the USA has won all eight of its games and let in just one goal in this time and scored a total of 19 goals. These victories include a 4-0 and 5-0 win over New Zealand, as it has even defeated Canada and Brazil in 2023.
