    I watched only a few U20 prelim games, but based on what I saw I picked Greece -0.5, Iraq +0.5 and Spain -0.5/-1 for 2 units. I think Spain should take care of Mexico rather easily and Greece looked pretty good and has an edge over Uzbekistan whose defense is suspect. Also, Iraq is still underrated and has a virtual home advantage.

    For the other tomorrow's matchups, I am leaning Nigeria and Turkey +0.5. Both Turks and French did not look very convincing at times, but Turks are playing at home.

    i think i like turkey over france. but its hard after turkeys last 2 games aganist aus and columbia, where they played horrible..

    having trouble with the spain game, they should win right....

    but i expect at least one game to tie.

    Spain -1 looks like a steal. Mexico barely made it to the next round. Wouldnt be surprised if line is -1.5 tomorrow

    I haven't solidified my picks yet but right now I'm liking Spain ML + Over (maybe some parlay action), and I think Nigeria has some value against an overrated Uruguay side who was suspect in the group stages. Then my gut is telling me to go with France, but both teams haven't looked great. It's hard to go against Turkey playing at home but France is definitely the better team talent wise. Greece/Uzbekistan is kind of a tossup to me, but I'll probably go with Greece. Somebody said something about Iraq tomorrow, but I don't see Iraq playing tomorrow.

    Really still looking at the Nigeria game though, I think they should be favored honestly.

    I also like Greece and Nigeria as well those two are my leans, Mexico have been horrible all the way, but i'm not going to trust the Spanish they could easily flop this by surprise.

    The only bet regarding Spain I would worry about is the over. We've seen how Spain can go up a goal and then just play possession the rest of the match. I don't think they lose to a very weak Mexico side, though.

    I only like Spain and France. I watched 2 of Mexico and Turkey games.

    Mexico looks decent with their short passing game but once they are desperate, they will run out ideas. Not getting men into the box but keep on crossing the ball, allowing the opposition deal with it easily.

    As for Turkey, those who watched their last 2 games will know how ordinary they are, totally overrun by Colombia and Aussies. Got a lucky win against Aussies as Aussies can't finish their chances.

    More or less agree with you, except that I watched some of the France games and they also looked bad. Some talented players but not enough effort and organization.

    I like Spain to win 1-0 or 2-0 to 3,87.

    Spain won big vs. USA, but only 1-0 and 2-1 vs. Gahna and France. Mexico scored four goals vs. Mali, but only one vs. Greece and Paraguay, so I won't be suprised to see them go scoreless against Spain.

    Just took Spain ML. Don't know which Spain will turn up, passive/aggressive, lock up the 1.455 just to be safe.

    I look at not only the ball itself, but from many angles. If let Greece win, then Turkey will lose. So let Uzbe win, and Turkey win (who is the host). I personally do not like France, last game, oh well.

    I'm starting to think under in the Spain game, but I'm not going to touch the over under. My book's over got hammered up to 3 now, which it RARELY does in soccer, so in my mind that screams fade.
