Re: "Bets placed" Thread 3rd place market.
with the correct cover it seems a fair shout to suggest these will give a fair run.
covering 2x2x2x1x1 = 8 bets on Paddy Powers 3rd place finish market
Group B - Paraguay 11/8 and Sweden 100/30
Group D - Iran 11/8
Group E - USA 13/8 and Czech Rep 13/5
Group G - Switzerland 2/1 and S Korea 13/8
Group H - Tunisia 11/8
min returns to a 1pt accumulator = 91/1, max = 263/1 with an 8pt cost.
reasons:
A is too close to call so is left out
B is surely between paraguay and sweden in that Trinidad will finish last and england will get thru whether 1st or 2nd.
C is left alone - group of death
D Iran look a stick on here because mexico and portugal are far superior but iran seem superior to angola
E Italy should get thru in the same way England should so with Ghana as potential whipping boys the states and the czechs fight for getting 2nd
F brazils group, all 3 others could conceivably finish anywhere, left alone.
G France are arguably poorest of the 8 main seeds but like england and italy should get thru, leaving togo as probable last place and the others trying to get 2nd.
H spain and ukraine too good for tunisia and saudi who like the iran/angola split should see tunisia come out on top in their match-up.
