Brazil Spain Final

    I've posted up a couple of times that I have €50 on a Brazil Spain final at 10/1. Currently it's 7.4 on Betfair (€700 ish available at that). I can't see Chile or Portugal getting to the last eight. I see the 7.4 as not bad value at face value, now considering that it would have been over 11.0 presumably at the start of the tournament it isn't great but I am sorely tempted to have more on.

    So I have, there is now only €480 available at 7.4 :)

    Not my usual sort of bet but I fancy the cream to come to the top on this World Cup. I hope it does now anyway.

    ive backed the brazil argentina final at 10s myself

    it does look like spain might get past portugal and then
    a possible quarter against paraguay/japan which they
    should win.
    Argentina would be possible semifinalists and I personally
    would take argentina to make the final even though the
    germans are no pushovers

    im pretty confident brazil will make the final on the other side
    and might just do the spain brazil final also as a saver.

    i dont think they are certainties to beat portugal however

    Into 6.0 now, quite a tumble considering Brazil qualifying to the last 8 wasn't unexpected. I wonder if Spain qualify against Portugal will it go to 5.0 or less ? I may do some trading if so as €360 is a large wad to have on.

    PP are so tight, only single on the spain brazil bet.

    I want to top it off with a few others.

    4.3 / 4.4 now to back on betfair, 4.7 to lay, I reckon I'll leave it as Paraguay shouldn't trouble Spain and I would expect Brazil to get past Holland.

    I'd like to see a docket with 18-1 please.
    I backed it pre-tournament with Boyles @11-1.
    It drifted to 20-1 on Betfair when Spain lost their first game and it looked like they would meet in the last 16. It was back in after the second round and now is trading at about 3-1. I wish I had gone in on b'f as i could have laid it off now. The only fly in the ointment now is Argentina, but hopefully Germany will despatch them!

    They are talking about Brazil - Argentina final @ 18-1, not Spain-Brazil.
