SPAIN VS SWITZERLAND 2010 WORLD CUP PREDICTIONS AND LATEST ODDS
Since Spain are priced so short in this match most of the value punters will be looking for some more creative options as they look to make a decent profit on the Spain vs Switzerland fixture today. With so many first-rate strikers set to take the field you can understand why the goalscorer odds are looking like some of the best right now. Keep your eyes peeled though as there are a few other interesting markets available.
David Villa and Fernando Torres are the only players in the match who are priced at odds-on to score a goal at anytime. You'll find Villa the favourite at 1.73 while Torres is available at 1.83. I think David Silva is a decent shout at 2.88 while Andres Iniesta is priced at 3.75 while Xavi is available at a 4.0 price.
For Switzerland, they'll be looking to Alexander Frei at 3.75 while Eren Derdiyok is available at a 4.5 price. Blaise Nkufo is priced at 5.5. Philippe Senderos is available at 15.0 while Reto Ziegler can be backed at 13.0.
If you're looking to get in on the first goalscorer betting it always helps to have an idea of how the first goal will probably develop. Personally, I don't see the opening goal coming from a set-piece of corner or anything like that, I think Switzerland are a bit more vulnerable from open play.
David Villa is priced at 4.0 to score the first goal while Fernando Torres is available at a 4.5 price. Additionally, Xabi Alonso is one to keep an eye on if he gets a start in this match. I could see him or Xavi coming in late to finish off a move. Xabi Alonso's odds to score trade at 17.0 while Xavi can be backed at 13.0.
If you're looking to back a scorecast selection, my suggestion is to try David Villa/Spain 2-0 if you aren't feeling especially adventurous- you'll find that priced out at a 16.0 listing. Villa/Spain 3-0 rewards at 24.0.
