Other news | What will the 2026 FIFA World Cup do for Dutch sports betting?

With football providing the world's biggest sports betting market, the FIFA World Cup always has a major impact on betting volumes.

But how will the 2026 FIFA World Cup impact the Dutch sports betting market specifically?

We asked the experts from H2 Gambling Capital who concluded the following:

Considering all of this, H2 expects a boost of c.€180m to turnover attributable to the upcoming World Cup. This equates to c.7.0% of predicted annual 2026 legal sports           betting turnover [...] it would equate to an implied gross win boost for the legal Dutch market of c.€21.1m.

Naturally, a deep run into the knockout stages would push the final figure even higher.
