An impressive England win over Wales?.a game they looked in complete control?..means only one thing for Azerbaijan?.defeat. This England side is beginning to look like a formidable outfit. Strength in depth means that even without Beckham and Gerrard, they should coast this game?..and the odds reflect this. Stan James bet Azerbaijan?.14/1, The Draw?..5/1, and England??1/7.Can we give Azerbaijan any hope then? Well they have strung a few decent results together, but the standard of opposition has not been in England's league, so it's difficult to see them being able to overcome them in 90 minutes. The best they can hope for is to hold out for a draw. But they will have 32,000 behind them, so they will try and rattle England as much as they can. As a betting proposition Stan James have come up with some alternatives. England to be winning half time and full time is 4/11?..England minus one goal?.1/2?England minus two goals?..5/4. And if you think England are going to run riot then you could have a bash at our Hat Tricks market. Owen to get a hat trick is 14/1, Rooney ?oh yes, he could do it?..also 14's , and the odds about Defoe completing the feat, is 20/1. But the value bet could be half time Draw/England winning at full time. A tempting 9/2. England might start slowly and Azerbaijan might come out like men possessed. So it's hard to see England slipping up?..they look too much in control of things at the moment. Their defense is solidly and going forward they have all the ammunition you could want.
