New Jersey bettors can earn bonus bets throughout the World Cup with BetMGM’s Match of the Day promotion.

The offer centers around one featured match each day on BetMGM Sportsbook. Customers who opt in and place a qualifying wager on the selected game can receive bonus bets based on the total number of goals scored.

For soccer fans expecting plenty of offense during the tournament, the promotion creates an opportunity to collect NJ sports betting bonuses alongside a winning wager.

How the Match of the Day Promotion Works

BetMGM designates one World Cup game as its Match of the Day to up the ante for soccer betting.

After opting in, bettors must place a qualifying pregame wager of at least $10 on the featured match. If the wager wins, BetMGM awards a $2 bonus bet for every goal scored during the contest.

The promotion pays up to $10 in bonus bets.

A 2-2 draw, for example, would generate an $8 bonus bet. If the match produces five or more goals, bettors receive the maximum payout.

BetMGM says bonus bets are credited within 72 hours after the qualifying wager settles.

Check the Featured Match Each Day

The designated Match of the Day changes throughout the World Cup, making it important for bettors to review the promotion before placing a wager. The matches highlighted in the promotion are as follows:

  • 6/18/2026 Mexico vs South Korea: 9 p.m.
  • 6/19/2026 Scotland vs Morocco: 6 p.m.
  • 6/20/2026 Germany vs Ivory Coast: 4 p.m.
  • 6/21/2026 Spain vs Saudi Arabia: 12 p.m.
  • 6/22/2026 Norway vs Senegal: 8 p.m.
  • 6/23/2026 England vs Ghana: 4 p.m.
  • 6/24/2026 Scotland vs Brazil: 6 p.m.
  • 6/25/2026 Ecuador vs Germany: 4 p.m.
  • 6/26/2026 Norway vs France: 3 p.m.
  • 6/27/2026 Colombia vs Portugal: 7:30 p.m.

Customers can also find the eligible match in the BetMGM promotions section and must opt in before kickoff.

Only qualifying pregame wagers are eligible for the offer.

World Cup Promotions Continue Across New Jersey

New Jersey sportsbooks have leaned into soccer promotions during the World Cup, one of the busiest betting events on the sports calendar.

BetMGM’s Match of the Day offer focuses on scoring rather than a specific outcome. Once a qualifying wager wins, every goal scored increases the bonus-bet payout.

That setup could appeal to bettors targeting high-scoring matches during the group stage and knockout rounds.

New Jersey customers can access the promotion directly through their BetMGM account and check each day’s featured match before placing a wager.
