Bolivia -1/2 over Peru
Bottom dwellers in South American qualifying meet in Bolivia on Saturday. While it is unlikely that either team will qualify for the World Cup, at this early stage hopes are still alive. Bolivia at home will get the 3 points and climb up the table. We are confident in the early information available for this match. |

Stick 100 quid on Scotland to win or draw at 2/7, England bt Kazakhstan at 1/20 and Wales bt Liechtenstein at 1/7 with Blue Square
Returns of 154.28p..it'll be the easiest 54 quid you ever made! |

no, Norway will not win, best they will get is a draw, thats why i say Scotland to win or draw.
Scotland have home advantage and will have a sell out crowd and have quite a few players now with Premier League and Champions League experiance...i cannot see them losing that match at all!
BTW, when i can i start posting new threads here? I signed up 3-4 days ago and it says i cant start new threads for a few days....well its been more than a few days so whats going on? |

| london32 if i were u i would skip the scotland bet and replace it with spain and holland to win. spain and holland two quality sides playing lesser opposition, holland have home advantage while spain are away to a side who lost their previous match 7-0 in bosnia. u could do a spain, holland, england, wales four fold. |

Thanks for your advice Quaresma but there are no easy games in international football. Yes Holland and Spain should both win but you just never know, Iceland and Estonia will both play with 11 men behind the ball and could get draws.
If i swap Scotland for your 2, the odds of losing increase because im doing a 4 fold rather than treble.
I think my 3 plus your 2 picks will probablly all win but law of averages say one of them will mess up (theres always a shock along the line).
Im sticking to my treble, lets see the outcome and talk about it after  |

Welcome to OLBG Mr London. We normally prefer a probably inserted in these type of sentences but you do seem sensible enough to know that shocks happen.
Holland have injuries for the Iceland game (more to follow tomorrow from Dutch TV). Not sure that iceland can afford to send their full squad over these days after the UK gov't confiscated all their money 
I assume all the England fans will go to the game dressed as Borat  |

| Why don't you just Lay Norway or cover win and draw. Risking money on 1-20 shots for couple of quid extra makes little sense. |
