That Nicaragua haven't scored in 3 years is exactly why you should stay away from this game. "When it's too good to be true ...". That game could end in a draw!!!

Hahaha, ok so Nicaragua qualified by winning this tournament:

2009 UNCAF Nations Cup - Wikipedia

Apparently the top 5 of 7 qualified and they won the 5th place playoff against Guatemala 2-0. But they went 0-2-1, scoring one goal in the group stage. This was the very first tournament they have ever made.

Incidentally that two goal win tied two other games for their largest victory margin ever.

Guadeloupe isn't a powerhouse obviously but they are much more experienced and can score. Guadeloupe -1 +106 seems like a great choice. I would also lean towards the Under -128.

In the other game, I see a pretty similar result with Mexico beating Panama 1-0 or 2-0. I would take Mexico -1 and the under in that game as well.

BOL guys! I won't touch those games. If I were to play anything in those games, I'd take 1st half draws at plus value.

Nobody knows anything about Guadaloupe... that's why this line is so low... I'm kind of surprised they're favored... most people see Nicaragua and are like oh a Central American country I assume is good. In reality, Grenada could challenge Nicaragua without Shalrie Joseph or Jason Roberts. Mexico is just so bad that no one actually knows how bad Nicaragua is.

That being said... I hesitantly made a mid-sized play on Guadaloupe ML.

I'm liking the UNDER in the Guadeloupe game.

I did a small parlay with Guadeloupe Under/Mexico Over

EaglesPhan36 · 07-09-09, 06:54 PM

Good luck Bruins. Wasn't really sure what to think of the Mexico match. Mexico was pretty lazy, but still scored twice, so more focus and they might get all 3 you need by themselves.

bostonbruins · 07-09-09, 08:57 PM

Perfect result for Guadeloupe, 1 to go..

panama are thugs.

What a fukin joke..., 2 absolute shit teams turned the second half into a circus, no time to get a winner. I will be betting against Mexico in the next game they are awful.
