World Cup Day 5 (15/06)


New Zealand v Slovakia
Ivory Coast v Portugal
Brazil v North Korea

Tuesday, June 15

New Zealand v Slovakia

Verdict: The underdogs in Group F go head to head in a game where a win for either side is imperative if they harbor any realistic hopes of progressing to the next round. In the lead up to the tournament, New Zealand did themselves proud with strong showings against Australia and Serbia, before coming undone in a 3-1 loss to Slovenia. Slovakia did well to reach their first World Cup since gaining independence, qualifying first in a group that included Slovenia and the Czech Republic.

New Zealand manager, Ricki Herbert, insists in playing a 4-3-3 formation so Slovakia should get plentiful opportunities up front. Kiwi keeper, Mark Paston, is also a very average keeper so mistakes are likely to occur in this high pressure environment. With both sides knowing the importance of a win, I expect an open game with a chance of goals.

Picks:
Over 2 goals @1.78 (pinnacle, 8 units)
New Zealand 1 - 1 Slovakia
Winston Reid (NZ) to be cautioned @2.52 (betfair, 4 units)
Reid Cautioned in 90th+ minute

Ivory Coast v Portugal

Pick: Eboue to be cautioned @2.52 (betfair, 4 units)
Eboue not cautioned
