FIFA World Cup
Australia +1 +137 over Spain
(Risking 2 units - To Win: 2.74)
June 23 – 12:00 PM EST. In what will be a matchup of no consequence or a fixture that would be nothing more than “academic” or “mathematical”, Australia will play a defeated defending champion in Spain, in what will shape up to be a difficult contest for the ailing Spanish. Most astonishing is the notion that Australia enters as such as heavy underdogs. The Spanish are in disarray and have only accumulated one goal on a dubiously charged penalty in their opening fixture against the Netherlands. Spain seems to be playing a severely worse brand of football with each fixture they participate in. Conversely, the Aussies have been playing better. In fact, the Australians made a game of their showdown with the Netherlands, taking a 2-1 lead in the opening stages of the second half. Spain was embarrassed against the Dutch and further controlled by Chile in their second effort.
This contest may be a dreadful trap game with Spain, who is certainly mourning their early exit from the World Cup. Australia has exuded a different mentality, one of enthusiasm and resilience. The Socceroos would respond to an early two-goal deficit against a great Chilean team and they would not be stymied by an early Dutch strike either. This game will certainly go 90 minutes and perhaps Australia can leave Brazil with three points and a much deserving reward of priding themselves on defeating a defending champion. Without question, the Australians have offered a distinguished effort and we expect nothing less here.
