    UEFA Euro Cup Soccer Betting - Switzerland vs. Turkey

    BetUS sportsbook is taking action on the 2008 UEFA Euro Cup. Currently on the soccer betting market is the upcoming second round of group soccer betting in the finals, beginning in Group A. With Portugal and Czech Republic in the lead, the sports betting matchup between Switzerland and Turkey will be decisive, for the side that leaves the pitch empty-handed will most assuredly have its Euro cup hopes quashed. So with so much at stake, here is a look at co-host nation Switzerland’s duel against Turkey in this Group A, complete with fast facts and free betting picks.



    Group A: Switzerland vs. Turkey
    Match Time: 02:45 PM Eastern Time, Wednesday June 11, 2008

    Soccer Betting Line:

    Switzerland -˝ +120 +115 Over 2 -105 Over 1 -150 Under 1 +120
    Turkey +˝ -140 +225 Under 2 -115 Under ˝ +145 Over ˝ -175

    Draw +225

    Alternative Soccer Odds: Spread and Total

    Switzerland PK -170 Over 1˝ -200 86 Turkey PK +150 Under 1˝ +165
    Switzerland +˝ -265 Over 2˝ +160 89 Turkey -˝ +225 Under 2˝ -190

    Analysis: Two years ago this match had a significant introduction in World Cup qualifications. Encounters in Istanbul and Basel were not pretty. Turkey is still bitter about this and has promised revenge. If that is the case, this match could far exceed the expectations of oddsmakers.

    Switzerland (+115) A huge handicap for Switzerland is the loss of their captain – with Frey’s absence the team is significantly weaker on the pitch. Against the Czechs they failed t take advantage of several scoring opportunities. Although their defence is strong – having held the Czechs to a single goal, Switzerland needs a win – i.e. they need to find the net.

    Turkey (+225) Although the Turkish side is chaffing at the bits to avenge their losses to Switzerland during the World Cup qualifications, an emotional motivator indeed, against Portugal they did not look good. Their defence fell apart. They seemed unsynchronized – to the point of bumping into each other. This is not a world class team but there are certain aspects of their game that go well for them. Kazim Kazim is a potentially dangerous weapon and Emre is a natural leader.

    Betting Verdict: After watching the first round in Group A, I am convinced this match will be uncertain. Both teams will be nervous, for a loss would be grave in terms of their Euro Cup campaign. Switzerland has the edge with home court advantage but with the hopes of both teams resting on this match, the edge is not as big as it would seem.

    Soccer Betting Picks: Neither side can afford a draw, so betting on the point is not the best strategy. A goal in the first half would open the match immediately, thereby allowing for the counterattack. As such the alternative spread/totals with the over 2.5 goals offers the best value.
