When it comes to Portugal's soccer team, the narrative always revolves around one man; Cristiano Ronaldo, and this year it's no different. Portuguese fans will be hoping that the latest drama surrounding Ronaldo's exit from Manchester United won't be a distraction as their greatest player ever takes to the field in their Group H opener today.
Portugal faces Ghana and heads into the game as strong betting favorites, with odds of -290 suggesting a 74.4% probability of victory. We've already seen two massive shocks at this World Cup and if you think Ghana can produce a third, you'll be rewarded with odds of +900 (9/1).

Portugal vs Ghana Betting Data
When analyzing the Portugal vs Ghana odds and betting market, it's important to take into consideration where the public money is going. There's already been a lot of money traded between bettors and sportsbooks so far at this World Cup and it's not always as simple as backing the favorite to win (ask Germany and Argentina fans!)
In the last 24 hours, Ghana, with generous odds of +900, have proved popular with bettors, with over 52% of total bets on the moneyline market being on the African team.
| Outcome | Betting Data |

| Portugal | 43.14% |
| Ghana | 52.94% |

You can also analyze the public betting data for popular prop markets too, for example, looking at the First Goalscorer betting market, Cristiano Ronaldo is unsurprisingly the favorite with odds of +300, but the most popular first scorer with bettors is actually his ex-Man United teammate Bruno Fernandes with 23.81% of bets.

Portugal vs Ghana Prediction
Despite Ghana having Premier League quality such as Thomas Partey and Tariq Lamptey, the odds on a Portugal win look about right and there's no betting value in the moneyline Portugal vs Ghana market, so the best options look to be in the player props market for this game and who better to start with than Cristiano Ronaldo?
All eyes will be on Ronaldo (just how he likes it!) and with this being his last ever World Cup, Portugal's leading goal scorer will be desperate to add more World Cup goals to his tally. We all know that "CR7" can be quite selfish in front of goal and that's why the odds of +150 on the striker to have 3 or more shots on target looks a good bet to start with here.
The second pick is Manchester City full-back Joao Cancelo to provide an assist in the game. EPL viewers will know the quality that Cancelo possesses and with the defensive frailties of Ghana (especially in wide areas), the Portuguese is likely to have the luxury of plenty of time on the ball which means plenty of time to pick the perfect pass.
Portugal vs Ghana Prop Pick Prediction: Cristiano Ronaldo to have 3+ shots on target, odds +150 with DraftKings Sportsbook
Portugal vs Ghana Prop Pick Prediction: Joao Cancelo to give 1+ Assist, odds +225 with DraftKings Sportsbook
Portugal vs Ghana Projected Lineup
Portugal: Costa, Dalot, Pepe, Dias, Cancelo, Carvalho, Joao Felix, Fernandes, Bernardo Silva, Leao, Ronaldo
Ghana: Ati-Zigi, Lamptey, Amartey, Salisu, Rahman, Partey, Owusu, Afriyie, A. Ayew, J. Ayew, Williams
Portugal World Cup Odds
Portugal are considered by many as dark horses to go all the way in the 2022 World Cup, and their odds of +1500 reflect their chances, making them 7th-favorites on the odds board. Cristiano Ronaldo has odds of +2200 (22/1) to be the tournament's top scorer - for that bet to land you'll likely need "CR7" to get off to a fast start against the weaker opposition in the group.
Ghana World Cup Odds
Ghana are one of the big outsiders to win the World Cup, rather unsurprisingly, but one of the more popular futures bets might be on them to qualify from Group H, for which you can get odds of +280 on the African team to make the knockout round.
