ok will do an accumulator for
japan,uruguay,algeria and solomon island winning..

though the algerian team recently hasnt been in the best form...maybe replacing Tunisia winning might be better as they are playing against a weaker side..?

From what I understood, there's some kind of tournament held in the Solomon Islands that serves as qualification for the World Cup. From what I read, people in the Solomon Islands are really passionate about football so it should motivate the team, also Papua New Guinea don't play together very often as you can see : http://www.soccerway.com/teams/papua-new-guinea/papua-new-guinea/

This might help you decide, it's taken from an article on fifa.com:


Most notably, it has been a particularly long absence for tournament hosts Solomon Islands who, having reached the final stage of Oceania qualifying for Germany 2006, saw their push for South Africa 2010 end with a first-stage elimination way back in September 2007. Now the Solomons are not only seeking on-field redemption, but the nation has the chance to show its organisational capabilities with what has been described as the biggest sporting event to be held in the Melanesian archipelago.

There is much excitement in the Solomon Islands for the ten-day tournament, where passion for the game is undeniable. Five-figure crowds regularly fill the natural bowl at Honiara’s Lawson Tama Stadium; no mean feat for a nation of 500,000 inhabitants, many of whom live away from the main land mass.

The Solomon Islands traditionally favour a fast and dynamic brand of attacking football, exemplified by unpredictable attacking duo Benjamin Totori and Henry Fa’arodo. Turning the team’s natural attacking tendencies into winning results, while at the same time dealing with the pressure of large home crowds, is the task facing coach Jacob Moli and the team’s French technical advisor Laurent Papillon. "I believe this team can achieve a lot if everyone invests the right attitude, effort and determination," said Papillon. "There are a lot of expectations for the national team. The players here are under a lot of pressure and we have to consider that."

Uruguay v Venezuela

2 bets that stand out me in this match, suarez to score and Uruguay to win(hopefully ill get odds on this tomorrow) and Uruguay To Win With A Clean Sheet 10/11

Urugauy have the best defence in south America and Venezuela are awful away from home.
Uruguay (-1) 5/6 looks right good too but I like the clean sheet odds a lot better. Maybe Venezuela will try to frustrate Uruguay so hence ill be going for clean sheet bet

Peru v Colombia
Falcao to score really stands at me. The man is on fire these days.

Lasagna it would be very interesting to see a running total or personal log of your bets. You seem to be doing very well.

Tbh I don't bet large sums of money so I'm not sure a personal log would be a good idea, I just like betting cuz it's fun, and for some reason whenever I have a big stake on a bet, it loses

I'm just glad I haven't had to add money to my Bwin account since last November, my goal now is just to get my bankroll as high as possible.:)

Top of the group against bottom of the group. France scoring for fun 12 goals in 5 games and not conceding one goal. France already beaten Latvia u21s 3-0 but that was away from home.

Im loving the winning margin market France U21 By 4 Or More Goals @17/10

With that team Belgium have put out, you'd have to fancy them getting somthing from this game but there is somthing that puzzels me with them because for all the talent they have, they dont qualify for tournaments and dont win alot of games. Its strange one.

They are unbeaten in 4. Though i do agree it's baffling they didn't make it to the Euros with that talent

Going for under 2.5 double.

England @ 8/11
Portugal @ 10/11
€ 6.50 on this.

€ 1.50 draw double on the above incase of a bore draw.

Either bet pays just over € 20 if a winner. odds from boylesports.

Hazard to score any time and Belgium to win 20/1

Thanks man. Bet's V Persie to score a hatrick 12/1 William Hill. Cracking odds i reckon. Very weak Northern Ireland side, even for them
