Friendlies
These games are very, very hard to cap as it is extremely difficult to gauge whether teams are coming to play or not. Some Cup teams simply want to watch and rate players so they can finalize their teams, while others will want to gain some momentum. Non-Cup teams can de dangerous as they may have a chip on their shoulder so those games are worth a look. I do not recommend any serious money on any of these games but here are a few that I think are interesting.
Denmark -1.5 Ev - Panama sucks, I mean it, they suck. They will likely be the worst team at the World Cup and will get buried in their group. If Denmark shows, they should win by 2 goals.
Russia+1 -115 - Okay, Brazil is a much better team even without Neymar, but Russia wants and needs momentum going into the Cup at home, they tied Spain and lost to Argentina by 1, but the biggest factor is that Brazil has Germany on deck in a few days. I think their focus will be there.
Italy+.5-120. This game is in England. Italy is still in the dumps about missing the Cup but I think they will be the more motivated team here likely with some younger players.
Dutch Pk-130 - Another non-Cup team against one (England). Similar to Italy game to me.
Poland -120 - Nigeria is historically atrocious on European soil. I think they have only won like once in 10 years and that was against Lux.
Will definitely not play the Germany game as they are not really concerned about winning. They are very focused on finalizing their team and not the results. Plus, I think they are more looking forward to Brazil.
Again, none of these are highly recommended, just some thoughts. I will likely play a few just for some action, but none for real money because anything can happen in these games and I have learned some tough lessens in the past betting friendlies for big money.
