SHAMROCK ROVERS VS REAL MADRID BETTING TIPS CRISTIANO RONALDO ODDS ON TO SCORE

After 80,000 turned up at the Bernabeu to witness the unveiling of intergalactic superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, only a handful will actually be able to see his debut match against Shamrock Rovers as Real Madrid look set to hand the winking wonder his friendly debut. The Spanish side are favoured to win with odds of 1/8 telling no lies. Rovers are listed at 14/1 price to pull off a dramatic upset. You'll find the draw priced at 8/1. You'll find that the shortest odds for correct score are 2-0 and 3-0 to Real Madrid, with both outcomes priced at 11/2. If you fancy Rovers to score, then you'll be looking at some increased odds in your correct score calls and 3-1 at 12/1 isn't a bad bet in my opinion. However, there is a real chance that Cristiano Ronaldo will put on a show today and run up a 4-0 or 5-0 score which pays out at 8/1 and 12/1, respectively. Madrid to win both halves is 2/5 with Draw/Real Madrid at 4/1. Gary Twigg is the favoured goalscorer for Shamrock Rovers with a 7/2 anytime price. Dessie Baker is at 5/1 anytime and Padraig Amond is 11/2. Cristiano Ronaldo is listed at an odds-on price of 4/7 to score anytime with 5/2 first and last. He's 12/1 for a hat-trick and I would normally bet that, but I don't fancy him playing a full game. Ruud Van Nistelrooy is at 10/11 anytime, but I've got my eye on Karim Benzema if he's listed in the starting lineup to score first at 4/1 with an anytime price of evens. Klaas Jan Huntelaar will probably get a run out and he's 5/4 anytime. Cristiano Ronaldo is 4/1 to score two goals (a solid bet) while a 4-0 result to Madrid with Ronaldo scoring first pays out a mere 14/1 on the scorecast. You can take Rovers at 8/1 on a draw no bet. Real Madrid -2.0 is listed at 10/11 with Rovers +2.0 at 15/8. I'm backing a good result for Madrid, despite a dogged display from the Irishmen. I'm backing Ronaldo to score two, but I'm backing Benzema to score first.
