World Cup Betting

Where's your dough going this tournament?

Fancy the Dutch myself for the whole ting.

Villa would be my pick for Golden Boot but analysis will have to be performed.

South Africa to get past the group stages.

Argentina. Think the media wildly overplay Maradona's shortcoming tbh and it was almost a mirror image of their qualifying campaign under Carlos Bilardo in1986.

Holland for me too, got a sneaky £15 on them at 12/1

I'm not sure what their draw is like but Italy at 16/1 seem like a decent each-way, no matter that they don't seem as strong as previous competitions. They can find a way through

After watching Spain demolish Poland in that manner I cannot look past them

I cannot think of a team capable of stopping them in a meaningful game.

They have a pretty easy group and draw and at those odds it just seems sensible to have a couple of quid on them. Although with me betting on them they probably wont make it past the group stages :icon_lol:

Spain have a very difficult draw though, even if they finish top of their group they will still have to play either Portugal or Ivory Coast in the last 16 game (assuming Brazil finish top).

Its where my money is going. Messi can win the whole thing on his own.

Just a quick question is each way top 3 or 4?

As I said, no one will match them, so the draw is not a problem, especially the 2 teams mentioned.

Good article here saying why we shouldn't necessarily write Maradona off: http://www.zonalmarking.net/2010/05/28/argentina-tactics-world-cup-2010-diego-maradona/

I agree, I've placed my bet on the Argies.
