Denmark ruined Swedens plans

Even though the match against Sweden had no significance for the Danish, they were real professionals in the game and for the second time in these qualifications they celebrated a minimum win over their neighbors. Denmark have gone the first nine rounds unbeaten and we expect them to continue the trend till the end of the qualifications. Coach Morten Olsen definitely takes most credit for the big success of the national squad and this is his tenth season on the national squad bench, after which he will probably retire. Denmark are flawless in front of their fans, so we expect them to easily handle the unmotivated visitors. That is why SportingBets offer 1.70 for Denmark to score at least two goals in this game is worth a shot.

Young Arsenal striker, Niclas Bendtner is the best scorer in this international campaign and he contributed a lot to qualification for World Cup. Hungarian defense managed to resist Danish attacks in the first leg it is not very likely that they will manage to do that again, which is why you should consider Bet365’s offer of 2.10 for Bentdner to score.

Hungary regret missed opportunity

Three successive defeats in the finish of the qualifications killed the last Hungarian hope of qualifying for the world elite. Poor results at home and defeats by Sweden and Portugal were crucial, so Hungary will have to look for their chance on EURO 2012 qualifications in Ukraine and Poland. Hungary boss, Erwin Koeman successfully lead the national squad until the last month when the crucial defeats happened. Since this match bears no competitive significance for the visitors, Koeman decided to give a chance to the players that spent most of the qualifying campaign on the bench. That reduced their chances even more and we think that this will inevitably be Hungary’s fourth straight defeat, so think about Betfair’s offer of 1.62 for a home win.

Hungary scored only one goal in the last three games, while they conceded even six, which is the best proof of the crisis in national squad’s form. Denmark defense is one of the most successful defenses in these qualifications and only in Portugal did they concede two goals, while they managed to keep a clean sheet in most of the matches. That is why 1.73 on the hosts to keep a clean sheet offered by Betfair seems tempting

Betting verdict

Even though this match is completely unimportant, it doesnt mean that it wont be exciting. Both teams will play relaxed without calculations, leaving more space for the strikers, which makes over 2.5 goals the best option.

Ronaldo is fit to play

Portugal were very disappointing in the World Cup qualifiers and they are now in a position to depend from other teams in the group. Now even the six points from last two games might not suffice but Carlos Queirozs team will do everything they can to qualify for the big tournament. Goal difference could easily decide the team to enter the play-offs from this group and we have no doubts the hosts will go all guns blazing from the very start. Therefore, odds of 2.30 offered by Expekt on over 1.5 goals in the first half look too good to pass.

Brazilian-born striker Liedson, who plies his trade for Sporting has already earned a starting berth for the national team despite playing just two games for Portugal. He is currently one of the most prolific strikers in Europe and is set to start this match in attack alongside Ronaldo. Seeing that Ronaldo somehow always underperforms when playing for the national team, our advice is to back Liedson to score at 2.00 offered by William Hill.

Hungary missed their chance

Hungary had a great start to this qualifying campaign, but as it later turned out that only happened because of the easy fixture list in the opening rounds. When they had the chance to stake their claim for the second place in the standings, the Hungarians lose at home to Sweden and Portugal and now they have to beat Portugal and Denmark away, which looks like a mission impossible. Nevertheless, the visitors will try everything to win this match and they will be afforded a lot of space since Portugal will attack from the start. Hence, you should really consider backing Hungary to score at 2.75 offered by Sportingbet.

Sandor Torghelle is likely to start as a lone striker for Hungary and he definitely looks like the most likely scorer for the visitors. Players like Dzsudzsak and Huszti will feed the balls in the box from wing positions and Torghelle will have the chance to get on the scoresheet. William Hill is paying 4.30 on Torghelle to score.

Betting Prediction

Portugal are set to attack from the off as they need a big win here and that will leave the visitors plenty of space to exploit. We expect a very open game and over 2.5 looks like a banker here.
