After capturing the 2022 European Championship, England found itself as the favorite to win the 2023 Women's World Cup. But the Lionesses are riddled with significant injuries heading into the start of the tournament, including captain Leah Williamson and key midfielder Fran Kirby, in addition to losing players to retirement after the Euros. Oddsmakers have shaded their odds longer as a result.

After the four top favorites, France (+1000), Australia (+1200), Sweden (+1400), and the Netherlands (+2000) represent the second-tier contenders.

The reigning Olympic champions from Canada find themselves just squeaking into the top ten at +3500.

The group stage of the tournament will run from July 20 to August 3. The top-two teams from each group advance to the 16-team knockout stage. The semifinals are slated for August 15 and 16 in Auckland, New Zealand, and Sydney, Australia. The third-place game will take place on August 19 in Brisbane, Australia, with the championship game on August 20 in Sydney.

All eight groups have a sizable favorite. Australia and France are tied for the longest odds among the group favorites at -200, which amounts to a 66.7 percent implied win probability.

Both sitting in comparatively weak quartets, England (-2500) and Germany (-1600) have the shortest odds, which carry a 96.2 and 94.1 percent implied win probability, respectively.

Team USA is a -350 betting favorite to top Group E (77.8 percent implied probability). The Netherlands - the team that the USWNT beat in the 2019 final - is considered the only credible threat to prevent the Americans from winning the group.

Group A is widely considered to be the weakest group. Even though Norway is only a +4000 longshot to win the tournament (12th-favorite), they are a huge -300 favorite (75 percent implied probability) to win the group ahead of Switzerland (+475), New Zealand (+500), and the Philippines (+50000).
