I feel that Slovakia are vastly overrated in terms of the 2/5 odds on them. The -1 has its merits but NZ have been getting positive friendly results recently. They play a 3-4-3 so it should be an open game, especially with the Slovakian boss coming out and saying they will attack.


I think Italy/Para drawing is the worst result for these two and Para and Italy should now get 7 points each. Both these teams now know they need to get the 3 points from this to have any chance.

So who has the more belief? I reckon Slovakia and think this could be quite an open game also (for once at this sh*t world cup)

Leaning -1 and over 2.5 goals

Thoughts?

[fedtpels]

Slovakia should definately take this one. I'm unsure of the over 2.5 as only one game so far has gone over (germany-australia).
This world cup sucks so far. the noise the ball - it's all bs. good luck.

[Squirrel]

I'm leaning the draw I think but still having a look at a few things. Its just a bit hard to know what to expect in a game between 2 of the weakest sides in the world cup, cant really justify backing either team, its just a case of who sucks the least on the day.

One things for sure, my anticipation for this clash between 2 of the worlds HEAVYWEIGHTS is reaching abnormal heights!!

[JOHON8]

A winner here goes top of the table, this is probably the only chance for 3 points Slovakia has so they have to go all in on this. Same story for New Zealand. Your plays should hit.

[Pauulzcappin]

There is a few teams you should fade in the world cup:

Greece, New Zealand, Australia, North Korea, Algeria.

[EaglesPhan36]

I think the over might be a decent play here if the refs let them play.

[Karayilan9]

Slovakia is very underrated, its like everybody has confused Slovenia with Slovakia
Stoch and Weiss on the wings, two young very talented players especially Stoch who just won the league with Twente in Holland on loan from Chelsea. Hamsik will be known to Serie A followers, he could string the attacks together and pose a threat himself. The defense isn't bad, Skrtel will be leading in the back. Tactically they look to be playing a 4-2-3-1, this is a must win game and its likely the wingers will be up high knocking in crosses, cutting in and stretching New Zealands defense.

[Tommy_de1st]

I agree that Slovakia is overrated but they are playing semi-pro "waiters"
They will win this one

[pavyracer]

Slovakia will push the pedal to the metal tomorrow. Over 2 and AH -1 should be safe.

[lakerboy]

Slovakia should not be -200. They should win but those odds are horrendous and have no value. Even Slovakia at -1 is questionable. Its not like New Zealand are going to mail it in.

[Phillth]

Slovakia has far more quality than the all whites. only way new zealand come out with something from this match is from a funky jabulani.
2-0 slovaks. look for hamsik to score both goals

[thomaschau]

I lover your write up. I think Slovakia will win first half

[iako173]

Over 2.5 should hit on this match

[Patrickz0rs]

No way New Suckland win s this math. Take the ML against them.

[Wilforth]

I think the over might be a decent play here if the refs let them play.

Will the refs tie their legs?

[DarkNite]

For the god sake, my book offers Slovakia ML 1.38, Slovakia HT/FT @ 1.83 and Slovakia X-FT @ 4.20.
I see Draw HT, and FT win for Slovakia.

[d1m@]

both this teams need to win , maybe they will not have a any more chance to win, but there is so many surprised draws from the beggining of the WC, that this match also can end with a draw

[Hory]

I agree that Slovakia is overrated but they are playing semi-pro "waiters"
They will win this one

Huh? The only real amateur guy in the squad won't get on the park and NZ's best player is the captain of Blackburn in the EPL so that's not too bad

I think over on number of cards might be good, NZ are 'physical' players like Australia

[aunty jack]

Slovakia has far more quality than the all whites. only way new zealand come out with something from this match is from a funky jabulani.
2-0 slovaks. look for hamsik to score both goals

it's hard to get excited about 34th vs 78th in the fifa rankings... but i hope my trans-tasman neighbours go down in flames.

i'm more interested in how the south african crowd will greet a team called the 'all whites'.

phillth, the funky jabulani sounds like a bad tone loc rap song. (i think i'm showing my age!)

[Glada Tartan]

Impossible to predict a winner in this game... Smells like a certain under 2,5 goals though!

[dialup_king]

New Zealand +1 is available at Matchbook

[Cubs4591]

What do you think about ivory coast?

[rockman123]

Guys trust me Slovakia will win this 1 big!! When New Zealand played against slovenia on a friendly match before the WC 1 month ago they lost 3:1(New Zealand is probably the worst team in the whole Wc. They shouldn't even be in South africa if you ask me). And we all know that slovenia didn't play good against Algeria,(which isnt a good team IMO) they barely win because of the goalies brain freeze and Algeria had 1 player less. I got the line at -187 at pinny yesterday. It was fun to watch the line movement it opened at -220 droped to -201 then droped to -187 and then went up to -199 where it is now nowhere in the world you ll see such line movements other than in the WC thanks to the fish

BOL to all

[spirta]

Today in my opinion its time for over games , I will start with over here.

[Glada Tartan]

Here NZ pre games to WC:

Nya Zeeland - Slovenien 1-3
Nya Zeeland - Serbien 1-0
Nya Zeeland - Australien 1-2
Nya Zeeland - Mexiko 0-2


Impressive win against Serbia...



No way this is gonna be an easy win for Slovakia!

[hacmuli]

today the chance for Slovakia get the 1st anh I think It should be Slovakia -1 and O -2.5
total goal 3 (3-0)

[SoV]

Smogs, have a peek in my footy thread, mate.

[rockman123]

Here NZ pre games to WC:

Nya Zeeland - Slovenien 1-3

Dunno about the serbia... didnt watch the game so i have no idea what happened...

Today in my opinion its time for over games , I will start with over here.

Good idea but i ll rather skip the over under in this game.

[Glada Tartan]

They seem to have a weak defense.. so hows Slovakias offense looking?

Slovakien - Costa Rica 3-0
Slovakien - Kamerun 1-1
Slovakien - Norge 0-1
Slovakien - Chile 1-2
Slovakien - USA 1-0


Its looks.. UNPREDICTEBLE!



Booth teams will most likely be very very careful.. just like all the other games!

[SoV]

Strong attacking team, the Slovaks. Got Hamsik, Stoch, Stanislav among others to wreck havoc.

[skodaka]

Slovakien will take the match withoun anu problem

[suckerforparlays]

this is a ****ing joke I dont no who to play lmao

[blowseq]

-1 looks really good...

[Squirrel]

I just can't really take New Zealand seriously in this competition at all, so played the Slovaks -1.5 ..... they have all the motivation they need to run for a win here since Italia and Paraguay are *probably* going to end on 7 pts each, unless the Slovaks win here they could well be eliminated after matchday 2 in the group

NZ just look like a pub side to me, they should stick to eggchasing.

[suckerforparlays]

I decided to lay some chalk and play the UNDER 2.5 at -140 .........
