    For f*ks sake if you insist on placing a future just dutch them both and be done with it. Guaranteed profit if either wins, if neither does you would have lost anyway.

    No one knows who wins it. Might as well take top 14 favorites and just randomly pick one. Italy is my pick but I wont be surprised if they go out in group stage.

    Its not great, especially as they didnt call up Caballero to play in goal. Garay is one of the best defenders at the WC though - but his partner whether it be Fernandez or Demichelis are both a bit dodgy. Rojo at left back and Zabaleta at right back are reasonably solid, and they are protected by Mascherano is obviously is one of the best defensive midfielders around. I dont think there is any team with a particularly strong defense in the World Cup so sort of balances out.

    All teams are pathetic. Argentina, England, France, Germany etc.

    But Brazil is the best of worst. Home advantage is important. I got Brazil QF, SF and win outright.

    Why are you obsessed with a future bet?

    Just wait till next week and make responsible plays each matchday.

    There are hundreds of bets you can do for each game. The props are actually more profitable.

    Why would you tie up your cash with an outright, it's crazy. Most of the outright bets hold absolutely no value. Try to back Brazil for example in every single game they play to the final and your profits will be a lot higher than the outright Brazil. Word!

    in Vegas pal. But i won't be here once the Cup starts. 1 month is not long to tie up cash. Also i dont like how soccer has 3 possible outcomes in group play.

    In 2010 i took Spain and cashed and now i'm hoping to have similar success in 2014.

    You aint got to lie to kick it. Admit that you dont know how 3-way betting works. Soccer has ML and pk lines, yes there is a difference.

    definitely Australia. they invested the money they received for earlyer fixings during the world cup, now they have enough to buy out fifa and fix the cup for themselves.
    i for one welcome our new world cup overlords.

    Basing your decisions on the outcomes of friendlies is a recipe for losing. Better off donating your money to charity.

    Good call I reckon. Spot on with this team. Hard group, could crash. Could go all the way. Typical Italy.

    Bet the farm on Brazil and Argentina to top their groups. Put your life savings on Argentina to beat Iran, 100k will see you profit 17k. Not much, but it's more solid than gold. Brazil to reach the semi finals is money, too good and at home theyll get through on home support alone { or by help of the refs } Have a small play on Italy as the odds are massive value and theyre way over the odds. They should be 15-1 max, theyre at least 26-1.

    Argentina
    Brazil
    Germany
    Italy

    Out of them youll find the winner. Uruguay dangerous also in South America and with a front duo of Cavani, Suarez and Forlan off the bench.

    A lot of People are basing their opinions Brazil after last years confed cup. They beat Italy with 2 offside goals in their last group game where the Italians had no Pirlo and De Rossi. Those players are world class and are Italy's heart and soul. In the semi final vs Uruguay where lucky they didnt go a goal down to a Forlan missed penalty. Were outplayed and won 2-1 with an 85th minute winner. They also smoked Argentina 3-0 as they did Spain in the final back in the finale of the 2005 confed cup and they went into the 2006 world cup being hailed as unbeatable but crashed out in the quarters. Not to dissimilar to this time, although they are at home unlike 2006.

    Awesome team, world cup winning coach and good nucleus of players. Some are young and untested on the big stage though, where it truly counts. Will be keen to make amends for the ghosts of 1950 though and theyll be playing for the poor, old, unfortunate and every crazy ass soccer loving person in Brazil. Will take a massive effort to stop them but the above teams certainly can.

    Semi finals at the very least. Argentina will beat them in the final if the Germans don't stop them from getting there though.
