World Cup 2010 Group Betting Tips

The 2010 World Cup Finals – like it’s predecessors – will have a few shocks at the Group stages. After all, who would have expected Senegal to qualify at the expense of France at World Cup 2002 or Ghana to qualify instead of the Czech Republic at the 2006 Finals.

The trick, of course, is to predict where the upsets are going to occur and bet big on the underdogs that may  qualify – from the group stages.

GROUP B: TO QUALIFY

Group B consists of Argentina, Greece, South Korea and Nigeria. Ordinarily you would expect Argentina to win the group but it’s hard to separate the other three sides.

However, with Diego Maradona in charge of Argentina, anything could happen. I can see a shock result or two in this group. I’m going to go for a team that knows what it takes to win a major trophy and that’s Greece.

They were OK in qualifying, although a surprise draw with Moldova cost them a place as group winners, but showed true grit in overcoming Ukraine in the play-offs. They are well organised and defensively solid and I take Greece to Qualify at 2.30 with Expekt.

GROUP E: QUALIFYING BETTNG TIPS

Group E has Netherlands, Denmark, Cameroon and Japan. After Cameroon’s poor showing at AFCON 2010, you would be inclined to suggest that the Dutch and Denmark will qualify.

However, Cameroon have two truly world class players – Samuel Eto’o and ‘keeper Carlos Kameni – and a bunch of very good ones. Denmark really don’t have the same quality.

I’ll take Cameroon to qualify at 2.10 with 888Sports.
