Football - Weds 15/10/2008 (Internationals)

[Liverpool1985]

World Cup Qualifiers:


Russia (4/11) vs Finland

Russia have made a shaky start to their qualifying campaign with a tight Victory to Wales and then falling to Germany. But in fairness Germany did have Ballack and Frings back in their squad which would have made a big impact. Finland held Germany 3-3 but Germany were missing Multiple players for that encounter. Finland i feel are a slightly overrated team in Internationals. Their away form in the 21st Century is W8 D9 L14. And their 8 victories came against (Kazakhstan, Poland, Macedonia, Armenia, Malta, Honduras, Northern Ireland &Turkey). Not exactly the best teams. Further more Russia's home record this Century reads an impressive W20 D7 L3. Their 4 loses came against (Portugal, Brazil & Israel). 2 Of which of top 10 teams in the FIFA rankings. Although the odds are not great for the home team they are still worth backing.


Republic of Ireland (4/9) vs Cyprus

Cyprus have lost 14 of Their last 19 away games in Internationals. They did of course hold Ireland to a shock 1-1 draw last season. Ireland have made a positive start to their qualifying campaign and will see the opportunity to extend this here. Cyprus's only away wins have been against San Marino, Faroe Islands and Malta. Who in contrast are 3 extremely poor sides.


The double pays 1.96 With Bet365. May pay better with alternate bookies.

Belguim promise a lot but deliver fairly little, i"ve backed them numerous times n they"ve drawn n lost against moderate teams, i.e Kazaghastan , cyprus, n n.ireland , albiet these were away games it still shows their limitations, n against a team like spain who are firing in the goals it seems theyr"e gonna astruggle here, torres n villa up front will have their back four nervous from the start, Belguim are without Vanden borre n Pieroni as well, possibly two of their better players,

Welshie, you're some boy. I love your posts.


Anyway, I notice there's a few internationals tomorrow morning and lunchtime (our time) and I fancy a couple of them, but admit to be shooting in the dark.

Australia v Qatar
Japan v Uzbekistan
South Korea v UAE
Iran v North Korea


Any thoughts? They're all world cup qualifiers from the Asia groups. I like the look of the first 3 homes who are all odds on.

Germany-1 v Wales 8/13@Coral

Germany were lucky to hold out against Russia on Saturday and Wales should have had more against Liechtenstein but Wales aren't Russia and Germany aren't Liechtenstein so I think that Germany can win by at least 2 clear goals here.

[abeefx]

just curious but im really liking the look of netherlands to win there 9/10 seems like a good bet to me almost to good considering there against norway and there euro form.

anybody know something i dont like injuries etc?
