Australia
Australia qualified for the 21st World Cup after defeating Honduras 3-1 over two legs in a play-off qualification match. The Socceroos have qualified for the past three World Cups, and their best performance was in Germany in 2006 where they reached the first knockout stage, losing to eventual champions, Italy, 1-0.
Australia have been drawn in Group C along with Denmark, France and Peru. Australia are the underdogs and it seems very unlikely that they will qualify for the knockout stages. Still, in this article, we will take a look at some of the Australia World Cup 2018 odds, including the odds on Australia winning World Cup 2018. As you can imagine, the odds for Australia to win World Cup 2018 are very wide!

Australia World Cup 2018 Fixtures And Prediction
Australia’s campaign begins on the 16th June against group favourites and third/fourth favourites to win the competition, France, so not the easiest of starts for the Socceroos. They then face Denmark on the 21st June in what will be a key game for Australia in their push to reach the second round, before facing Peru on the 26th June in their last group game, bringing Group C to a close.
Unfortunately for Australia, we just cannot see them getting through this group and we predict that they will exit in the group stage in Russia.
