WALES VS. BULGARIA- EURO 2012 QUALIFIER PREVIEW AND ODDS

Wales take on Bulgaria tonight in what is a must-win game for teams if they are to keep up the pace set by Group G leaders, England
Bryan Flynn will be hoping to reel in a new era of Welsh football here tonight, following the departure of John Toshack after almost six years in charge of the Dragons
Wales have had a disastrous start to the campaign- registering a shock loss to Montenegro in Podgorica, and one can be certain that they know that anything less than a win here tonight simply will not do.
With Wales sitting third on the log, and today’s opponents currently rock bottom, Wales will fancy their chances here today, especially playing at home.
All of the news surrounding today is centred  around Welsh captain Craig Bellamy not being named in the squad for the match, despite recovering from a knee injury to score in Cardiff's 2-1 win over Barnsley last weekend.
Rumours in media circles claim that Bellamy had turned down the chance to play for his country, however Flynn has insisted that this was not the case, and that Bellamy had asked to be rested having just come back from a five-week lay-off.
With Bellamy out of the line-up, many are assuming that Flynn will be naming Millwall forward Steve Morison to lead the line.
On the Welsh team news front- An injury to striker Ched Evans means Morison comes in, while Joe Allen joins the list of walking wounded suffering from a groin strain.
Wales have been further depleted by the news that forward Rob Earnshaw has also pulled out of the squad, with uncapped 19-year-old Ryan Doble filling the gap.
Betfair are offering the pick of the odds on this clash with Wales favoured at 2.76, to Bulgaria at 2.92.
With a highly limited attacking line up, this game is expected to be a low scoring affair with an 'Under 2.5 goals' option looking pretty decent at 1.62.
As per usual the goal prediction front makes up the majority of real earners here tonight
William Hill- A Welsh victory at 1-0 is the favoured scoreline in this match up paying out at 7.0 even, and a 2-1 win at 11.0- the pick of the lot.
A 0-0 draw is set at 8.0, with a 1-0 Bulgaria win at 7.50
For Wales, Steve Morrison is favoured to open proceedings tonight at 7.0, with the very impressive Ched Evans set at 2.87 to score at anytime.
