This is due to the passion that football inspires in many countries around the world.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In terms of audience, visibility, and financial activity, this statement is even more true. However, <strong>when it comes to <a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/en\/sports-betting-en\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"Sports Betting\">sports betting<\/a>, this is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fifa.com\/en\/tournaments\/mens\/worldcup\/canadamexicousa2026\">competition t<\/a>hat attracts the largest number of bettors worldwide.<\/strong>  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to a survey by the British multinational bank Barclays, the 2022 World Cup in Qatar generated US$35 billion (approximately R$190 billion) in <a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/en\/sports-betting-en\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"Sports Betting\">sports betting<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The amount was 65% higher than that recorded at the World Cup in Russia in 2018.<\/strong> This suggests that projections for 2026 will be even higher, according to market analysts.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to figures from Betlaw, a firm specializing in the management of the betting industry, 10% of that amount (R$ 19 billion) is expected to circulate in Brazil. Currently, the betting market in <a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/en\/sports-betting-en-2\/2025\/10\/22\/the-betting-market-in-brazil-continues-to-expand-and-is-now-the-5th-largest-in-the-world\/\">the country ranks fifth in the world in revenue<\/a>, behind only the United States, the United Kingdom, Russia, and Italy. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>It is worth noting that this is the first time the country has been included in Regulus Partners&#8217; list of largest markets.<\/strong> That&#8217;s because 2025 was the first year the sector was regulated in Brazil.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are Brazilian betting sites expecting for the 2026 World Cup?<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, the regulated betting landscape in Brazil sees a favorable outlook for the market during the competition. <strong>The FIFA World Cup will take place between June 11 and July 19, 2026, in three host countries: Canada, the United States, and Mexico.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to <strong>Marco T\u00falio, CEO of Ana Gaming, the group that manages the 7K, <a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/en\/casino-en\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"casino\">Casino<\/a>, and Vera brands<\/strong>, the World Cup is a special moment for sports across the globe.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;This is a time when even those who aren&#8217;t that interested in sports start watching, cheering, and having fun with their family and friends,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He added: &#8220;To heighten the excitement and make the entertainment even more intense, it&#8217;s natural that fans around the world place more bets during the competition, generating more activity than at other times.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to <strong>Pietro Cardia Lorenzoni, legal director of<a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/en\/legislation-en\/2025\/12\/04\/anjl-criticizes-new-proposal-to-tax-betting-in-brazil\/\"> ANJL<\/a> (National Association of Games and Lotteries) and partner at Betlaw,<\/strong> we are witnessing a significant evolution of the sector in the 2018 and 2022 World Cups. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All of this is due to the United States Supreme Court&#8217;s permission to adopt <a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/en\/sports-betting-en\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"Sports Betting\">sports betting<\/a> in 2018. &#8220;I believe the global scenario will also be strongly impacted by the regulation of the market in Brazil,&#8221; Lorenzoni predicted.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For many, the World Cup is the biggest sporting event on the planet, surpassing the Olympics.
