Quarterfinal time!
Spread W/L/D: 13/7/9
Moneyline W/L: 6/8
O/U W/L/D: 11/10/3
Props: 2/3
Overall Balance: -8.47 units
YTD W/L/D: 31/30/13
Brazil vs. Netherlands
The Brazilians will be dealing with some injuries before this match, including Elano (out) and possibly Melo and Baptista. The Dutch will not face any suspensions or injuries and will field the same team as last week. Still, I think Brazil has more than what it takes here--the Dutch have been very workman-like, doing just enough to win (and then scoring goals really late to put the game away) and this uninteresting approach will fail against Brazil, who will play forward and attempt to score. A lot. While revenge for the Dutch would be sweet, and they have a lot of talent, the Brazilians should have the edge. I think there will be a couple of goals at least...
Brazil -109: 7 units
Brazil vs. Netherlands OVER 2 goals (-139): 7 units
Uruguay vs. Ghana
I think Ghana's run will end here. Of course last week I thought the USA would be able to beat them, and maybe they should have, but they couldn't get the pace and the defenders were too good/physical for them. I don't see the same for Uruguay, who are really good and can't wait to get their licks in. On top of that, Ghana will have a few injured players who may or may not play (and if they do, probably not to full capacity), not to mention some suspensions. It'll be tough for them. Uruguay has also only conceded one goal so far this campaign. And I'm going to go a wee bit on a few props.
Uruguay +110: 7 units
Prop: Will both teams score in this game? No (-165): 5 units
Prop: Player to score first goal of the match: Forlan (+500): 1 unit
Prop: Player to score first goal of the match: Suarez (+550): 1 unit
Open bets: 6 (28 units)
