SPAIN VS PORTUGAL PREVIEW AND WORLD CUP 2010 BETTING ODDS

 

We're set for a real barn-burner of a clash here as the two footballing neighbours square off against each other for a chance to battle Paraguay in the quarter-finals of the 2010 World Cup. 
With the previous match being a scoreless draw settled on penalties, I think we can be confident that we'll see a few goals here and plenty of attacking football. 

Currently, Spain are priced at even-money to win the match at popular UK bookmaker Blue Square. You can back Portugal at 4.2 while the draw is trading at a 3.2 price tag. 
In regards to outright qualification, we've got Spain priced at 1.4 while Portugal are listed at 2.75 to win. This market includes extra-time and penalties while the aforementioned priced are just for the 90 minutes. 
With so many potential match-winners on the pitch, you know that there are some fantastic odds available on today's match in the goalscorer betting markets. This is something that Blue Square does better than other sites- offering up numerous different bets on goal methods. 
Unsurprisingly, David Villa is considered the favourite to score in this match with a 2.0 price to score at any point. Villa is an enticing 12.0 to score in both halves while he is listed at 29.0 for a hat-trick. Villa is 3.75 to score first for Spain and 9.0 to hit the woodwork- I can see him getting a few chances so hitting the bar wouldn't surprise me at all. 
Fernando Torres' odds to score in this match are priced at 2.5 and he is another player on the list of superstars who have had very underwhelming World Cups. Torres is 9.0 to score a header and 19.0 to win a penalty.
Speaking of top players who are playing a bit tepid, Cristiano Ronaldo will be looking to make a real statement on this massive stage. He's priced at 2.62 to score a goal at any point in the match while he is listed at 21.0 to score in both halves and 67.0 to score a hat-trick. Ronaldo is well-priced to score a header at 10.0- I can see Spain conceding from a set-piece and this is a very nice price. 
Andres Iniesta is listed at 3.75 to score anytime while midfield partner Xavi is well-priced at 6.0 to score a goal at any time. He is listed at 19.0 to score from outside the box and I think that's a decent bet as well.
