What a great game yesterday evening where Croatia just crushed Argentina! Impressed how Croatia just dismantled the Argentinian team! I do admit that the first goal was lucky, but an incredible finish!
On the betting side, I did record: 1 push, 1 win and 1 loss! Good enough for a small profit! Every little profit helps!
Brazil vs Costa Rica
Well for Brazil it is simple. They do need a win after drawing against Iceland in their opening game!
Costa Rica lost their first game against Serbia with the smallest margin!
Last time these 2 countries faced each other, Brazil came out on top with a 0-1 victory and I don't see how Costa Rica could score a draw or even a win here!
I am doubting here between Brazil -2 odds: 2.54 or the over 3 goals with odds of 2.629.
But because my son said that Brazil would win with 2-0, the safest bet would be Brazil -2. So that's what it will be!
Nigeria - Iceland
If Iceland wins this game, there are as good as qualified for the next round. Wouldn't that be a blast for a country with only 330.000 living in it!
Nigeria did loose their opening game against Croatia, but we do know now that this probably had to do with the strength of Croatia!
This one is hard to predict, cause even the bookies doesn't know. Both teams do get odds of 2.862 on the moneyline win! So maybe a draw is better! But Nigeria is playing with the back against the wall. Another defeat that their world cup would end in the first round!
With this bet I am not going to follow my son, I really do see Iceland taking the three points! For sure based on their eager to win and the viking fighting spirit. So my pick will be Iceland -0.5 good for a whooping odd of 2.779.
Serbia - Switzerland
Switzerland did draw against Brazil in their opening game, while Serbia won against Costa Rica. But that 1-0 victory didn't convince me of their qualities! I do guess that it will be an open game! Serbia will qualify for the second round with a win, while Switzerland will not be eliminated with a loss. A draw could be a good bet here but I don't like betting an draws. Both teams to score is another possibility!
But my pick will be the over 2 goals. The odds for this bet are at 2.121!
