Glory be. What a time to be alive if you’re a football fan. There are four World Cup games on Saturday and it all starts with France taking on Australia in Kazan.

The much fancied French, who are priced at $7 for winning the whole thing, have one of the youngest squads at the tournament and will ease into the tournament with a match against the Asian Football Confederation’s Socceroos.

The bookmakers favour the Europeans. France are $1.25 for the win and Australia are $13. The draw is around the $6 mark.

Catch that game from 6pm on Now TV’s World Cup channels (618 and 619).

Last time’s finalists Argentina get their World Cup under way with a game against debutants Iceland in Moscow’s Spartak Stadium on Saturday night.

The 9pm kick off will see Lionel Messi begin his quest for a World Cup and the team are among the favourites in Russia.

You can back the Argentines at $10 for the trophy and at $1.36 for the game. Iceland are at $11 and the draw, which would still be some achievement for the Euro 2016 quarter-finalists is $5.
