Will you bet online on the Confederations Cup Final being a battle of the world and European champions?
Certainly, football games can go either way at the semi-final stage and betting odds offer genuine hope for backers of all four nations.
But there’s no doubt Germany and Portugal will be favourites to meet in a tournament showdown next weekend.
Germany vs Mexico (June 30, 02:00 GMT+8)
First to Sochi where Mexico await and where the Germans are familiar following the group stage.
It’s hard to bet against Germany, who have now reached the semi-finals of eight successive major tournaments.
Dynamic Mexico cannot be ruled out, especially when their line is led by a deadly marksman who plies his trade in the Bundesliga, Javier Hernandez.
Especially when they are backed by such jubilant fans who have made their trip to Russia, something of a carnival atmosphere.
However, after guiding them to their 100th victory in his 150th game in charge, what price win no. 101 for German coach Joachim Low?
What price a further goal for Timo Werner who furthered his growing reputation in the group clincher against Cameroon?
It will be close but my 🌟🌟 tip is Asian Handicap -0.50 Germany @ 2.11 and another final for the world champions.
Portugal vs Chile (June 29, 02:00 GMT+8)
Before that it’s Portugal versus Chile in Kazan.
While Portugal start as slight favourites, this one is harder to call in a match containing two genuine world-class talents, Cristiano Ronaldo and Alexis Sanchez.
Chile certainly can’t expect the Portuguese to be as profligate as Australia were in their final group game.
Yet, Portugal will be only well aware of the attacking threat of the side ranked fourth best in the world.
And with Pepe suspended and Bernardo Silva an injury doubt, this meeting of the two last major winners (Euro 2016 and last year’s Copa America) may tilt towards the South Americans.
In fact, I’m going to edge towards La Roja with a 🌟🌟🌟 bet of over 2.50 goals @ 2.25, and also a 🌟🌟 offering of Draw No Bet Chile @ 2.20.
So, we’re down to the final four and they should be two eminently watchable encounters.
