Argentina v Brazil, 5pm
Doha in Qatar plays host to this contest between the two south American heavyweights of international football, even if it was Uruguay who actually went further than either of these teams in the World Cup.
There’s little to celebrate these sides who were both fancied to reach the final in South Africa before missing out against Germany and the Netherlands respectively. Since then, Argentina have rallied by beating Spain 4-1 in front of a boisterous Buenos Aires crowd and they can be backed at 8/5 (William Hill) to win this match and keep the good form going.
There are not many times where you will see Brazil have odds of 19/10 (Paddy Power) about them winning a football match, although the bookies no longer think that they are a dominant force in world football after flopping against the Dutch. There are a couple of waning stars in Ronaldinho and Kaka, although Neymar (15/2 bet365) and Robinho (17/2 Betfred) seem to perform on an international stage when required.
We know all about Argentina’s star-studded attack and the exit of Diego Maradona means that the team has a more balanced look about it. Lionel Messi needs no introduction and can be backed at 5/1 with Coral to score first, with Carlos Tevez available at 7/1 with bet365. At least Manchester City won’t have to worry about their striker failing to return home from Argentina given that the match is on neutral ground.
With so many star attacking players on view, many might expect a few goals in this game and Over 2.5 Goals can be backed at 6/5 with Sky Bet.
