    Bahrain-New Zealand WC Qualifier
    Kicks off at 2am eastern. First leg was nil-nil in Bahrain. Winner goes to WC, loser goes home.

    Virtually a pick 'em on the 3-way line here.

    Who does everyone like?

    I'm siding with the Kiwis, even though it may go more than regulation. Thinking home pitch here will be the difference.

    I'm thinking a draw, either 0-0 or 1-1, this will have no goals in it

      This is one of those games that will be very tight until the first goal is scored, if it is at all. Depending when that happens will play a huge role in the rest of the game. This match is huge for both sides and everything is on the line so they will throw caution to the wind to win.

          New Zealand have a good defense but offensively they are ineffective and pose no threat, Bahrain are an interesting team, they play better than you would think, defensively not as good as New Zealand but they are a much more potent threat going forward.

          This isn't a game to go crazy on but I'd give the edge to Bahrain +0.5 or Under2.5

            That being said, one goal (more so if Bahrain score) - will open up the game quite a bit.

              This game has the pace of a paralympic contest.
              New Zealand dominant in the air and making it count.

                      Turkz,
                      That was the return fixture. First match was 0-0 in Bahrain. Kiwis are celebrating as they are going to South Africa.
