SPAIN -RUSSIA SEMI-FINAL

[WINBET]

I've not much to go on for a bet but thought I would post how the Books view the Game. Since Spain won a Fortnight ago 4-1 the Russians have improved, dramatically in the Publics view, however the real odds are almost the same price as the first encounter 2.12 (+112) Spain and 4.01 (+301) Russia with the Draw in from 3.65 to 3.55 (+2.55)

While the Books were happy to mirror these odds the public have bet Russia into 3.75(+275) and drifted Spain to 2.2 (+120) Germany drifted all Day against what looked like a decimated Turkish side so one can see Spain also drifting for the same reasons, how far is anyones guess but Spain has had heavy support in all its games and its hard to see the price going out further than 2.25. The Goals market suggests 2.53 which leaves no value with Books and I'm personally betting Spain if it goes 2.25 with a view to hedging out before game time.

I've made some nice $$ with Russia and I've got the final score Russia 3 Spain 2. (50-1 odds)

I would have hit the last game spot on (I had it 2-1) but that last goal by Russia killed a nice side payout for me.

I do think the 1st goal goes to Anyukov though. (33 - 1 odds)

Then again I am slightly biased as my gf is Russian and is convinced Russia will beat Spain as they are not the same Russian team that lost to them earlier.

Here in Germany the odds on Russia have gone down considerably. Two days ago it was RUS multiplier of 3.30 and the TIE was 3.30. Now in checking the odds on Russia are 2.85 and TIE 3.60. I like the OVER in this game at 3+ goals paying 2 times money. Neither team has much defence and Russia can run for days.
