IRELAND VS ALGERIA FRIENDLY MATCH BETTING TIPS

Irish fans have one last kick at the can before starting their qualifying campaign for Euro 2012 this September. It's going to be a very interesting match today against World Cup-bound Algeria and you can bank on the Irish giving 110% to put on a quality show for their dedicated fans. I think the Algerians will be mostly trying to avoid injury ahead of the South African tournament which starts in just a few weeks. 

The odds for tonights contest show the Irish as odds-on favourites with a 4/6 price against Algeria's 9/2. The draw pays out at 5/2 and that's a decent bet if you think Ireland will underwhelm. 
Keep in mind that Algeria are no slouches and they are one of the stronger African sides. 
The correct score betting doesn't favour a huge amount of goals with the shortest price being a 9/2 listing for a 1-0 Irish victory. A 1-1 draw is priced at 11/2 while a 2-0 result pays out at 6/1. Ireland to win 2-1 pays 7/1 while 1-0 to Algeria rewards at an 11/1 price. 2-1 Algeria pays out at 16/1. 
Unsurprisingly, Robbie Keane and Kevin Doyle are favoured to get the job done in front of goal. You'll find Keane listed at even money to score anytime and a 7/2 price to score first or last. Kevin Doyle trades at 7/5 anytime and a 9/2 price to score first or last. 
If he gets a start, keep your eyes on Darron Gibson at 11/2 anytime and 14/1 first or last. 
For Algeria, their favoured goalscorer is Rafik Djebbour at 11/4 anytime and you'll also find Rafik Saifi and Abdelkader Ghezzal priced at 10/3 anytime. 
There are some really solid prices on this match, but I get the feeling that it may be one for the in-play punters. Be sure to check out the live odds from Paddy Power if you're going to be dropping a significant amount of money on this one.
