Bet Of The Day: Euro 2012 Qualifying Special With Tips On Spain And England
We pick out some markets worth having a flutter on today...
Sep 3, 2010 10:10:00 AM
* Slovenia To Beat Northern Ireland @ 1.66
Match Odds: Slovenia 1.66, Draw 3.50, Northern Ireland 5.50
Getting results on the road has been a major struggle for Nigel Worthington's team in recent years. Clocking up victories against Liechtenstein and San Marino have been the only highlights in a dismal run. The Irish have also failed to score in their last seven internationals, losing six in that sequence.
Slovenia may not be world beaters, but as they showed in the World Cup they are a difficult side to beat. They went unbeaten at home during the World Cup qualifiers when they also turned over tonight's opponents 2-0.
Match Odds: Sweden 1.32, Draw 3.98, Hungary 7.69
Sweden welcome back Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who, along with Ola Toivonen, make for a potent attack. Hungary won four times on their travels during qualification when they were in the same group as the Swedes. However, both games against Sweden finished 2-1 in favour of the Nordic side, who have also won their last five home games.
* Double on Slovenia & Sweden to win @ 2.20
* Iceland (+0.5) against Norway @ 2.0
Match Odds: Iceland 3.78, Draw 3.18, Norway 1.79
A trip to Iceland is not a guaranteed three points by any means for Egil Olsen's Norway. The home side are unbeaten in seven games on their own territory and face a Norwegian outfit who didn't impress anyone on their travels in qualifying for World Cup 2010. Norway failed to win any of their away qualifiers and scored just once in four games.
Both games between these teams in the recent qualifiers finished in score draws, so giving Iceland a half a goal advantage looks to have traction.
Outside Bets
* Spain to beat Liechtenstein 2-0 @ 7.50
Match Odds: Liechtenstein 41.0, Draw 5.0, Spain 1.01
La Furia Roja are a tiny 1.01 to win against the minnows of Liechtenstein. No value there so a small stake on a correct scoreline is worth considering. Both of Spain's two most recent visits to Liechtenstein ended in 2-0 wins for the favourites. If you favour more goals you'll get over three at shorter odds of 1.44
Match Odds: England 1.26, Draw 4.79, Bulgaria 9.97
Going behind at Wembley is something England have got used to in recent games. Three of their last four visitors have taken the lead (Egypt, Japan & Hungary) before the Three Lions roared back to win.
There is massive pressure on England to win and play well at home tonight. Don't bank on it happening, especially in the early stages in front of an expectant crowd...
