Portugal cruised to a thumping 5-0 win over Uzbekistan in the FIFA World Cup on Tuesday, with BetNow pricing them at +1000 to lift the iconic trophy next month.
Roberto Martinez’s side came flying out the blocks to take the lead against the World Cup debutants. Legendary forward Cristiano Ronaldo broke the deadlock, doing so from a Joao Cancelo cross after just six minutes. 11 minutes later, Nuno Mendes doubled their lead via a well-taken free-kick from the edge of the area.
A second for Ronaldo just before half-time extended Portugal’s lead to 3-0 heading into the break, before an Abduvokhid Nematov own-goal and an accurate Rafael Leao finish sealed a five-star showing.
In the aftermath of their impressive performance and result, their odds to win the World Cup have shifted, along with their odds to win Group K, as well as Cristiano Ronaldo’s Golden Boot odds.

Portugal World Cup Winners +1000
Portugal are now at +1000 to win the World Cup for the first time in their history.
That makes them fifth favourites for the title, behind only France (+400), Spain (+550), England (+600), and Argentina (+650).
Meanwhile, they are ahead of Germany (+1400), Brazil (+1600), and the Netherlands (+1600).
Portugal To Win Group -175
Tuesday’s win propelled the Portuguese to the top of Group K.
However, should Colombia beat the Democratic Republic of the Congo later today, Martinez’s men will finish the second matchday in second place – two points adrift of the Colombians.
On the other hand, if Colombia draw or lose, Portugal will remain first heading into the final game of the group stage.
BetNow have Bruno Fernandes and co. heavily favoured at -175 to finish in first place at the end of the group phase, which is an implied probability of 63.64%.
They take on group rivals Colombia in their third group game on Saturday.
Cristiano Ronaldo Tournament Top Goalscorer +1600
The Cristiano Ronaldo player prop picks guide released ahead of Portugal vs Uzbekistan had the striker to score at anytime, to score first, and to register over 3.5 total shots – all of which he achieved.
His brace sees him bounce back after a poor showing in his side’s tournament opener against DR Congo last week, while it also puts him back in the Golden Boot conversation.
At +1600, he remains an outside in the market, judged as the fifth favourite.
Lionel Messi’s five goals sees him marked as the favourite at +188, followed by Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland on four goals apiece, priced at +200 and +600. Harry Kane, who is on two goals alongside Ronaldo, is ahead of him in the market, priced jointly with Haaland at +600.
