First ever appearance in the World Cup finals and you start against two time winner Argentina, welcome to the jungle !
I have already backed Ivory Coast to qualify from the "group of death" and to win outright, reasons in my archive "World Cup Preview.......part 1......". They are a team I hold in the highest regard and quite frankly the odds on offer today, simply do not make sense. Of course, Argentina should be favourites, but these odds defy belief, win or lose, they are wrong. Even if Argentina win 4-0, these odds are wrong ! Think I have made that clear.
How often can you back a world class team, at a neutral venue, at 7.50 ?
Pleased that the South Americans will not start with either Messi or Tevez, they are wonderful talents and would have been the first names on my team sheet, injuries aside. Come the next World Cup it will be Messi's face on every magazine cover and not Ronaldinho, but maybe it is 4 years too soon for him.
Having said all this, as we are already so involved, I am only going to suggest a nominal bet on the African side, if you have not played them so far, then bet a little more.
Also think we may see some goals, the ball is definitely "moving" in the air, Argentina have gone "over" in 6 of last 7 starts, IC have scored in 13 of their last 14. Over 2.25 has plenty of interest, half stake returned with 2 goals. Thats it, enjoy the matches today.
1 point Ivory Coast 7.50 general
4 points over 2.25 goals 1.96 asian line
Good Luck.
