Spain vs. Russia Group D Euro 2008 Betting Odds Prediction

[Shame About Ray]

Euro Cup 2008 Betting - Group D - Spain vs. Russia

Group F winner Spain begins their quest for the championship in Euro 2008 on June 9th when they take on the Russians. Spain is one of the sports betting favorites to win Euro 2008, but the Spanish haven’t won since 1964. That makes this Euro Cup betting tournament very important for the Spanish. Like the Italians, who haven’t won the European Championship since 1968, the Spanish must find a way to end the drought.



The Russians might just be happy to be here. The second-place team from Group E Qualifying, the Russians are a serious threat on paper, and there’s no doubting their heart, but the Spanish, led by forward Fernando Torres, appear to have the Russians overmatched.

Here are the BetUS online betting odds for this match:

Spain - ½ - 145 - 145 O 2 ½ + 125 O 1 ½ - 110
U 1 ½ - 120

Russia + ½ + 125 + 440 U 2 ½ - 145
Draw + 245

Spain - 1 + 120 O 2 - 140
Russia + 1 - 140 U 2 + 120

Spain O 1 ½ - 245
Russia U 1 ½ + 205

The BetUS online sportsbook is offering quite a few choices in this match. There are a lot of ways to make money in this one. A closer look reveals that the Spanish are a huge soccer betting favorite in this match.

Every wager above says that the Spanish cruise to a victory. The key will be in deciding by how much. The BetUS over/under Euro odds regarding the Spanish at 1 ½ goals – 110 is actually a very good wager. The juice of only 10 bucks is a pretty good indication that the Spanish should score more then one goal.

If that’s the case, then what is the best online wager to make in this match? Giving up a goal and the Spanish at above even money, on the BetUS line of + 120, to win this match by at least two goals, that’s what!

That’s a very likely scenario for the simple fact that the Spanish are far superior to the Russians.

I’ll be making two online bets in this match.
