Well, it’s come to life now! After Russia opened the events with a resounding win on Saturday, we had pyrotechnics on Sunday!
The tournament exploded into life with late goals and live betting thrills in the weekend’s football games, teeing things up nicely for the midweek matches. So let’s take a look at the Asian Handicap Betting chances in Round Two.
Russia vs Portugal (June 21, 23:00 GMT+8)
The hosts top Group A after a regulation victory over New Zealand but it was Portugal and Mexico who put on a performance to get us all out of our seats. Cristiano Ronaldo was man-of-the-match as the European Champions led twice to be pegged back both times in a thriller. I think home advantage could play a part as the tournament progresses.
So for an opening 🌟 bet, a draw will pay 3.25.
Mexico vs New Zealand (June 22, 02:00 GMT+8)
Javier Hernandez was on target as Mexico shared four goals with Portugal in that pulsating game in which Hector Moreno headed an injury time equaliser. New Zealand has plenty of fight but the players looked out of their depth in the curtain-raiser against Russia and could find Mexico much too hot to handle.
Mexico to storm ahead by the break, with a -1.00 handicap, will pay 2.01 for a 🌟🌟 bet.
Germany vs Chile (June 23, 02:00 GMT+8)
Julian Draxler is skippering a young German side but with such a wealth of talent at his disposal, Joachim Low’s side started the tournament as favourites. But Chile is a strong opponent and goals in the last ten minutes by Arturo Vidal and Eduardo Vargas saw off a tough Cameroon side. We could easily be watching the eventual winners here.
Chile to win DNB is my 🌟🌟🌟 bet at 1.85.
Cameroon vs Australia (June 22, 23:00 GMT+8)
Cameroon boss Hugo Broos said his side looked nervy in its opener against Chile but the Cameroons did keep a top quality team at bay for 80 minutes. Australia’s a great cricketing nation but is still finding its feet in football terms. A strong second half performance against Germany will give them confidence though.
With a -0.25 goal handicap, Cameroon is a 🌟🌟 bet paying 2.00.
