Line went from -0.5 -125 to pk -130

I think the public smells a dig in match, low scoring, giving S>K. the chance at the draw. Usually does happen in these farewell games sending off the losers, they get a respectable finish.
I think it ends up 1-0 Belgium. SK with just an 11% chance of winning according to ESPN metrics, Belgium at 33%.

Algeria +0.5

Yes they both must win to secure #1 seed in group. That's why I don't understand this talk about either team laying back. They won't. 

I'm with you on both teams today

take a look at Belgium's starting lineup and you'll see why the line moved the way it did

That sucks. That, or they are very confident. Maybe they want Germany right away? Dunno. I can't play SK at all.

Belgium only need a draw to win the group.  They can even win with a loss, if Russia draw or beat Algeria.

South Korea is pretty bad though.  They'll play hard, but not sure it will be enough.

What are you talking about? Are they starting subs? I haven't read anything about that. They still need to win to assure they have #1 locked up.

Link please?

No, they don't.  A draw is just as good as a win.  And as I said, they can win the group even with a loss if Russia win or draw.

That's the ML you are looking at.  PK odds are in the -270-290 range.

Belgium was never a PK -130. Anywhere. You were looking at ML spreads. Lowest Belgium PK line was -275 offshore
