Greece vs. Argentina 2010 World Cup Predictions Group B Odds: Picking a winner will be easy for Soccer fanatics looking for an edge in the World Cup soccer match between Argentina and Greece, set to kick off at Peter Mokaba Stadium – Polokwane Tuesday 2:30 pm Eastern (American). Argentina is a "Can't-Miss" favorite to win Group B at -5000 odds. Greece has the best odds to advance as the second team from the group.
Argentina's famous coach, Diego Maradona, has assured he does not like his team perceived as a favorite for winning the cup. In spite of his feelings, the favorite is exactly the role his team is currently playing.
"Argentina is neither favorite nor a candidate to win, we are here to play," Maradona told reporters on Sunday covering the Worlds greatest sporting event. But following Maradona's statement he did say "South American teams are much more competitive than European ones." So having said that does it mean he thinks Argentina is more, or will be more, competitive than Greece?
Oddsmakers at online sportsbook Bodog.com certainly think so, having installed Argentina a solid 1-goal favorite versus Greece with a 2 1/2 total. Argentina is also -175 favorite on the Bodog moneyline while Greece backers are getting +550 odds as the underdog. Those wagering for a DRAW are getting +250 odds.
Greece will be heading into Tuesday's competition brimming with new confidence following their brillian victory over a stunned Nigeria side, coming from a goal behind to claim victory. Of course defeating Argentina will be a different animal as Argentina, in spite of Maradona's protests, is now the favorite to win 2010 World Cup. Argentina dismantled South Korea 4-1 in their previous game.
It has been a near-perfect start for Argentina, who have taken the maximum six points from their opening two games, conceding just once in the process. Greece have not enjoyed as flawless a start, but their unexpected defeat of Nigeria in Bloemfontein last Thursday has put them firmly in the fight for second place.
Argentina is going for the jugular in this match as they achieve to win top spot in the group. Look for a 3-1 result for Argentia.
