Thoughts on World Cup Outrights
In Group B I still think Morrocco are a better side then Iran which means Spain have the more difficult final match. Further, should they finish exactly equal with Portugal then Portugal top the log based on rankings. I think Mexico are in pole to top Group F and Belgium should shade England. The current top 5 outright favorites for the World Cup are Brazil, Spain, France, Germany and Belgium. It looks suspiciously as though these 5 sides could all end up on the same side of the draw with Germany v Brazil meeting in the round of 16. From a punting point of view I'm thinking there must be value in trying to pick a finalist from the other half of the draw. I have gone for
To make the WC Final
Croatia @ 6/1
Switzerland @ 33/1

Close there Van on Mexico 2-0.Them and Senegal I like as underdogs.

Senegal now evens to win their group,also going with the idea of 2-3 goals against Japan Chris .This "Lions of Teranga goalie" is an acrobat,they havn't lost in their last ten games.

Going to try my luck with a double chance , Saudi are plain nasty but I feel there was very good improvement in their last game , they'll be playing their neighbours Egypt and I feel the game will be super tight . Evens the double chance at GGG

As I plod along , tonight I fancy Australia . 6/10 or better in the double chance ( draw/Australia ) , a little short for a straight bet so will take double with under 2.5 goals in Denmark/France around 14/10 .

Main bet tonight is Nigeria on the double chance , really like them tonight and with Argentina under such pressure I feel our comrades could frustrate them no end .

Best was at GGG at 15/10

Australia vs Peru

The Peruvians lost both their matches so far and haven't scored a single goal.

The Socceroos played above expectations so far, losing 1-2 to France and drawing 1-1 against Denmark, a match they dominated and should have won.
A lot is at stake for Australia tonight.

Peru should try to at least score one goal at this tournament, so I'm going with the following two bets:

Bet 1: Australia +0.25 @1.83

Bet 2: Over 2.5 goals @1.92

First up - Have to say I enjoy reading The Oracle's World Cup predictions. All calls made with absolute confidence - love it.
Group F
Situation is Germany win by 2 or more and they are through. Mexico don't lose and they are through or lose by 1 and have less then 2 yellow cards more then Sweden and they are through.
Germany -2.0 Asian @ 9/10
Sweden DNB @ 13/10

Thanks Coil. I'm going to presume today's shock has been provided by Korea and normal service will resume. Brazil and Switzerland both need the draw only to progress - so no need to run up big scores - and we have not had our match won by 1 goal exactly yet.
Brazil -1.0 the draw @ 26/10
Switzerland -1.0 the draw @ 5/2

Going with Senegal both team to score there Chris ,must get the hat-trick,this Senegal counter attack is good,hope they don't lose.Also like your draw in the Poland game and have taken England outright so possible Senegal or Japan next ,maybe even Columbia.

I would prefer England to lose tonight and easier route on paper thru to final.

Yeah agreed on Senegal btts mate, think they missed a trick in not beating Japan as far as their ourtight group winner chances go. Just seen that potential route for England if they win the group and take your point though it would appear Belgium are more likely to rest the bulk of their big guns, team news will be interesting,

Sides needing a draw to progress generally get the draw. Japan need a draw today. Senegal are certainly great athletes but Colombia will almost match them in that department and Colombia are the better footballing side. Odds on the Colombia win are a little skinny at 17/20 so I am taking
Group H
Japan Draw @ 21/10
Group finish Tricast Colombia/Japan/Senegal @ 5/2

For all those punters smart enough to follow Mackem's pre-tournament Panama goal bet the cover is Tunisia clean sheet yes @ 29/20.
This evenings England v Belgium is certainly a match neither side wants to win so I'm taking a beer on the longer draw odds
Group G
England v Belgium HT/FT Draw/Draw @ 34/10

Reached that stage of the Tournament where I top up my original 10 unit outlay ( 2 already gone - swine Germans) with another 5.
Having watched most of the games I think there are only 4 sides left who could realistically win the World Cup. Brazil, Spain, Belgium and Uruguay - three of whom are on the same side of the draw. Have gone with
Win Spain @ 9/2 2.5 units
Win Uruguay @ 24/1 1 unit
Final Belgium v Spain @ 11/2 1.5 units
and
While scrolling through the exotics came across one that really rolls off the tongue so popped a few beers on it
WC winner/Golden Boot winner
Spain + Kane @ 11/1 :silly:

Thanks Brent , I’ve been following the forum for several years and I thoughly appreciate all the analysis and hard work that goes into the previews. It is about time I start participating too , i predominately bet in running which makes it abit more difficult to post, but I will do my best. The Soccer World Cup has been a real treat so far and I’m of the opinion we may see an upset , possibly Croatia or Belgium . Happy punting everyone.

Sterling over 0.5 shots on target at 15/20 with Sunbet looks a cracking bet. That’s my main punt.

Adding smaller interest 1st goal Sterling 15/2, and correct score 3-1 England 22/1.

Uruguay v France
Not sure the books have the right favorite here but I will skip the 33/10 and the 17/10 Uruguay to qualify for what - to me - looks like a better prospect. The French defense have not impressed me. They were poorly organised against Australia and Peru and let in 3 goals against a really rubbish Argentina. I'm thinking Uruguay will get a goal so going with
BTTS Yes @ 5/4 for 5 units
and cover for the clean sheet
Uruguay -1.0 the draw @ 5/1 for 1 unit
