Spain are the Olympic men’s soccer champions, after beating France 5-3 after extra time in the Paris 2024 final. The next tournament is at the Los Angeles 2028 Games, with the gold medal match at the Rose Bowl on Friday, July 28, 2028, and no sportsbook price on it that we can source yet.
The men’s field shrinks from 16 teams in Paris to 12 in Los Angeles. The group stage starts on Monday, July 10, 2028, four days before the Opening Ceremony on July 14, and the two tournaments are spread across six cities, with the finals at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena.
Olympic men’s soccer odds
No price on the 2028 men’s tournament is quoted here. As of September 25, 2026, we have no market for the gold medal that we can source and date.
When a market opens, the arithmetic is the same as any futures board. The implied chance of a price is 100 divided by the price plus 100, so +300 means 25.0% and +1000 means 9.1%. A bet on the gold medal is worth making only when you rate a team’s chance higher than the price does.
