Definition of Winners Group

What does the term "winners group betting" mean? What is meant by the term "winners group" when it comes to betting on football tournaments?

With the "winners group" lines, sportsbooks give you the opportunity to bet on which Group will end up producing the winner of the tournament.

So, for instance, let's say that we are talking about the World Cup.

The Winners Group odds might look like this:

Group A, 11.00
Group B, 5.50
Group C, 8.50
Group D, 5.00
Group E, 5.00
Group F, 10.00
Group G, 4.50
Group H, 11.00

So, let's say that you believe that Groups B and E are the two best Groups in the tournament, and you believe it likely that these two groups will produce the eventual winner.

In this case, you'd probably want to put some money down on both groups.

If you bet $100 on both Group B and Group E, you'd collect a profit of at least $300 if the winner came from either Group.

Based on the odds above, you can surmise that Group A and Group H are seen as the two weakest groups of the tournament, while Group G is seen as the best group.
