South Korea vs Greece 2010 World Cup Predictions Group B Odds: Korea and Greece will be the first sides from Group B of the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa to put the ball in play when they meet at Port Elizabeth stadium, Nelson Mandela Bay/Port Elizabeth Saturday morning – 7:30 am Eastern (American Time).
This match is lined at online sportsbook Bodog.com as a PICK (ATS), but slightly favoring Greece with a -130 price while South Korea backers are getting EVEN odds. Greece backers are getting +150 odds on the Bodog World Cup moneyline for a SU win while South Korea is getting +180 as the underdog. Oddsmakers set a +200 line for a draw with an OVER/UNDER total of 2 1/2.
With Argentina (La Albiceleste) a heavy group favorite, finishing second will be a satisfactory accomplishment for either Greece, South Korea and Nigeria, the sides looking up to La Albiceleste. The loser of this match-up of underdogs will be starting the World Cup tournament in a hole. It is expected both sides will put extra focus on defense, especially Greece whose defensive skills are noted. Nigeria can least afford to fall behind at all.
South Korea (Korea Republic) is coming to the Final with some momentum and confidence after going undefeated in Asian Zone qualifying, with seven wins and a draw. The Greeks had a tougher time of it in qualifying as they had to come through a difficult play-off tie with Ukraine to stamp their passports to the finals.
In Saturday's second Group B game, Nigeria plays Argentina (10 AM Eastern) and barring a major upset, is expected to lose that game.
Match Prediction: A 1-goal total would not be surprising in this match. The best play is the UNDER 2 1/2 total.
