Germany V England - Sunday June 27th- 10AM EST

[nulldah]

i just dont understand the odds that favor England to qualify. Germany has time and time again prove they are TOURNAMENT TEAM. They always look shaky at group stage (qualification or finals group stage), but they will look like perfect team again in knock out stage.

Of course, by heart, I want England to win. Just look at the current schedule. If they want to win this world cup, they need to beat Germany, Argentina (Q-Final), Spain (S-Final) and Brazil (Final). Of course, surprises are expected. But, you can't be the better "Best Team in the world" than that, huh? And for Capello, it will be proven that he's the best coach in his generation.

Taking England here...good luck

Germany will win and the sub-par team that allowed a goal a four-year old could have stopped will go home!

[English Bloke]

There were signs of improvement against Slovenia, but England still has not got itself going yet. England are still not good enough to get knocked out yet!! England normally get knocked out when we are playing great football and are expected to win. Reverse Psychology?

Interesting facts include that Frank Lampard has had 33 shots at the World Cup without scoring. At Chelsea he would have bagged at least 5 or 6 goals with that stat. Wayne Rooney has not scored in 7 world cup appearances. Playing the laws of probability, surely these stats must give soon.

Germany are one of the best tournament teams in the world period. They could send out a bunch of reserve players and still put up a fight. Their midfield, although inexperienced has better balance than England's.

The match is tighter than a nun's chuff. It could simply come down to the team that put's away their chances. This means that Lampard and Rooney need to get their finger out. If they play well, England win. If they play poor, it's Germany who will be through.

Prediction: Germany 1 England 2 in normal time.

[gafl]

Germany to advance.

[Netprofit]

Fading the Germans in the WC unless they are against a team that is simply world class and playing at their peak and even then its a risky business.

If you bet this match with passion and emotions it is one thing; if you bet as a professional looking at value you do not need to consider beyond the above statement.

[tailmypicks]

england will get it done
martesacker and friendrich/boateng are too slow for defoe and rooney

[Karayilan9]

Wait for the odds to keep rising on Germany, value keeps increasing

[SaffaCappa]

Heart says England but the head says Germany. They play better as a team!

Germany vs Argentina Quarter Final ...

[Karayilan9]

Few key points regarding this game.

If Capello keeps being a tactical dinosaur and refusing to change the 4-4-2 Germany could have an advantage before the game begins. Ozil has been successfully used to infiltrate the line between the midfield and defense. If England tries to mark him that player will be dragged out of position and Germany will keep having a much stronger presence in midfield and dominate the game. England ball retention has been awful, the teams shape gets ruined by Gerard drifting in from the left so that Cole can't get forward either.

Yesterday Ghana had a similar formation as Germany today, while USA in the first half played a 4-4-2 like England do and we saw how they got dominated in the first half and just looked hopeless until USA changed formations and tactics to deal with the problem.

Value on Germany.

Argentina -0.5 and -1 (-107) at Pinny?

Really liking Germany line is at +180 right now with 35 minutes for the squares to pound the English

[nchi]

I am on Germany. I'm surprised John Terry's teammates pass him the ball.

[ufuque]

I'm on England. 2-1 correct score

[The Baron]

If you like germany I think its also a good idea to bet a few bucks on Germany to win in extra time and Germany to win on PKs.
