Paddy Power has over 75 different markets for today's massive 2009 Confederations Cup clash between the USA and Spain. With so much attention being focused on this match, largely thanks to a lack of quality football elsewhere, we're seeing money pouring in from all directions and we've noticed a few patterns here. The top bets for the match are, obviously, Spain at 1/4 odds and then we're seeing a lot of action in the handicap betting as well. Spain (-2.0) is 2/1 and that's one of Paddy's top bets at the moment. Spain (-1.0) is paying out at 8/11 and that's also seeing plenty of attention. I personally think that Spain (-3.0) is a realistic possibility and the 5/1 odds don't put me off one bit. Spain to win both halves is a popular option and it's paying out at 8/11. Draw/Spain is listed at 11/4 while a USA/Spain is 25/1. The Spanish are also 8/13 to be ahead at halftime. A USA lead at the 45 minute mark pays out at 10/1 and that's not bad odds to win half a football match. In terms of anytime goalscorer, David Villa and Fernando Torres have both risen slightly in the past 24 hours and are now listed at 5/6. Guiza and Llorente are 7/5 while Mata trades at 2/1. Fabregas carries a 10/3 price while Silva and Cazorla are available at 4/1. Xavi and Riera are at 9/2. Landon Donovan and Jozy Altidore are the favourites for the Americans at 5/1 anytime- solid odds. Connor Casey is 11/2 while Clint Dempsey is listed at 13/2.
