2025 Gold Cup Odds: Books hope USMNT can 'get the job done' against Mexico

Bookmakers got what they wanted from the Gold Cup odds market: USA vs. Mexico, in Houston, in a championship showdown capping the Fourth of July weekend. At 7 p.m. ET Sunday on FOX, the U.S. Men's National Team and El Tri square off. "This is definitely the match we want. I'd say Mexico is the USA's biggest rival," BetMGM Nevada's Scott Shelton said Friday evening. Shelton helps break down Gold Cup betting odds for the championship match. Mexico Moves To Favorite On Wednesday, Team USA got two Diego Luna goals in the first 15 minutes and made that hold up in a 2-1 semifinal victory over Guatemala. Mexico followed with a 1-0 victory over Honduras. Then BetMGM Nevada posted the three-way odds for Sunday's title tilt, declaring it a toss-up: Mexico +170/USA +170, with the draw at +200. But our neighbors to the south have since moved to the favorite. "Ticket-wise, there's literally one more ticket on the U.S. than on Mexico. But money-wise, it's 3/1 on Mexico. Draw only has a handful of tickets," Shelton said. With that action, Mexico is now a modest +145 favorite, with the U.S. at +190 and draw at +210. What that means: If you put a $100 bet on Team USA, and the Americans win, then you profit $190 (total payout $290) if the U.S. wins within 90 minutes plus injury time. And that's important to note. If you were to bet the U.S. on the three-way market, that bet doesn't extend to overtime/penalty kicks. So if the U.S. went on to win in overtime or on penalties, your ticket would be a loser. To avoid that possibility, you might want to consider the two-way "To Lift The Trophy" market, in which Mexico is -135 and USA is even money (+100). Then your bet is live, regardless of whether the game ends in regulation or goes to overtime/penalty kicks. Tie Goes To The Sportsbook As is often the case in soccer, and particularly in high-profile international matches, BetMGM Nevada would love to see the U.S. and Mexico tied after 90 minutes plus injury time. "By kickoff, we're gonna need a draw. That will end up being our best-case scenario," Shelton said. "Mexico will be just as heavily bet as USA." So, ostensibly, bookmakers are rooting for Sunday's match to go to overtime, and even to penalty kicks if possible. That's certainly what Caesars Sports is hoping for, along with a win from the Red, White & Blue on this Fourth of July weekend. "Draws are always a book-friendly result," Caesars head of soccer trading Mark Bickerdike said. "The U.S. ultimately getting the job done, preferably on penalties, would be the most favorable for the book."

Caitlin Clark injury update: Fever star to miss fifth consecutive game

Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark will miss her fifth consecutive game due to a left groin injury on Saturday, July 5. Clark is working her way back by participating in drills. 'We went through semi-live shooting drills, but she hasn't gone full speed in a practice or a live defensive group,' Fever coach Stephanie White told reporters on Friday. 'She's been getting some 3-on-3 work on her own.' White indicated she was expecting Clark to be reevaluated before the game, but the guard appeared on the injury report Friday evening and was listed as "out." 'I prioritize her long-term health and wellness, and making sure when she comes back, she is 100%,' White said. It will be the 10th game that Clark has missed this season, including the Fever's 74-59 victory over the Minnesota Lynx in the Commissioner's Cup final on July 1. The Fever have remained competitive without Clark, winning the last three games that followed a loss to the Los Angeles Sparks on June 26. The Fever will host the Sparks on Saturday.

Robert Whittaker: If Khamzat Chimaev can't stop Dricus Du Plessis on the ground, he loses

Robert Whittaker doesn't see Khamzat Chimaev surviving a five-round war with Dricus Du Plessis. Du Plessis (23-2 MMA, 9-0 UFC) defends his middleweight title against Chimaev (14-0 MMA, 8-0 UFC) in the UFC 319 main event on Aug. 16 from United Center in Chicago (ESPN+ pay-per-view, ESPN, ESPN+). Whittaker suffered stoppage losses to both Du Plessis and Chimaev. He was quickly submitted in his most recent outing against Chimaev at UFC 308 last October. However, with Chimaev showing a tendency to slow down in his only two decision wins against Gilbert Burns and Kamaru Usman, Whittaker questions his ability to survive the championship rounds against Du Plessis – if he's dragged there. "Honestly, I have to say Dricus would be a favorite," Whittaker told FOX Sports Australia. "I think I'm leaning towards Dricus. The whole thing can be summed up – Chimaev will take him down. It's will he finish him before he gets back up? That's the million-dollar question because if he doesn't finish him on the ground, I think he loses." Former middleweight champion Whittaker (26-8 MMA, 17-6 UFC) will look to rebound when he takes on Reinier de Ridder (20-2 MMA, 3-0 UFC) in the UFC on ABC 9 headliner July 26 at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi. "Four fights, I see the light at the end of the tunnel," Whittaker said on his future. "I want four more. I see the stepping stones needed to do what I want to do. Four fights gets me into that title shot, gets me into a position to finish on top, to have that fairytale ending. So, I'm working towards it."
