Argentina - Japan

[whareouttogetme]

Argentina are 8/13 to beat Japan in an intl. friendly on Friday

surely this is easy money? especially after the 4-1 beating they gave Spain in one of their last friendlies

only worrying thing is they only beat Ireland 1-0, and that was their a-team...

[Josu]

friendlies are never sure money

think anything else and you're skating on thin ice

i don't think any of these teams cares about the end result

[polskboy]

this game should go way over.

[whareouttogetme]

5/6 now, too good for me to pass up

might parlay with Germany to beat Turkey (Euro 2012 Qual.) at 8/13 as well

[charley1]

go Argentina.....

[umdterps]

Who knows which team will show up tomorrow, going with the over in this one.

[minet123]

Good luck with these friendlies

[Slainte]

Friendlies are just for fun, without motivation everything can happen.

[pinnerpsk]

Agreed. Im not touching this friendly at all.

For fun? they buy plane tickets and hotels booked are just for fun? i think u should look a bit further than that.... Or i think you dont know what the purposes of friendly matches at ALL.

"Lionel Messi is in the squad despite having been injured recently, and if he plays then the Argentinians will go home $200,000 better off as part of the agreement with the JFA so expect him to play some part even if he’s limping!" I don't know about Messi limping, he was ok against Mallorca, but I think he shouldn't have been brought in Japan, but left at home to rest.
I hate friendlies. They are useful to the national managers who don't have too much time with their players anyway, but these games are only a tease in expectancy of the more important ones. I never bet them as anything could happen at the end of those 90 minutes.

[Glada Tartan]

Hmm Japan on homeground might be dumb to count out...

[ararat2010]

Well, I use friendlies to small bet against favorites - same here, it's 1x game for me )) BOL!

[althelegend]

Messi will play part of the match. At least that is the plan. Japan will be keen to do well, as in all the matches they play, whether friendlies or not.
I do not think it will be a high scoring affair.

[whareouttogetme]

ARG 3-1 JPN imo I think Japan could score first as well

good luck everyone who bet

[Larsson_76]

hmm it depends totally on which team they will play with...

[skodaka]

argentina the match is over

[chopstick88]

Japanese paying Argentina to see MESSI and to improve their playing style as new coach approached and for better playing skills. Not like paying them to be a clown.

[500miles]

The coach is still Maradona?

[chopstick88]

The coach is still Maradona?

No.....Maradona is a cock sucker. He knows nothing about coaching that why Argentina play like shịt in the World Cup

[Tommy_de1st]

Argentina might've won the World Cup if Maradonna hadn't coached them

[Duff85]

I bought myself some Japan +0.5 too good to pass up on home ground. Looking pretty good right now.

[pokerwhiz90]

japan's gonna win 1-0 or at worst tie this up 1-1... no way argentina is going to score even 2 in the lat ten minutes... hats off to all of those you have the under and japan's ML..

[Duff85]

As an Australian fan too... I gotta say Japan is looking scary good for the Asian Cup next year. They defend in numbers really well and have looked decent on the counter against the Argies.

[whareouttogetme]

Unbelievable...

lost on both Argentina ML and over
