Decided to go with two of them - Croatia to concede fewest at 33s and Srna to top score for them at 15/2. Also added Pauleta at 33s for top o/r scorer after his hat-trick yesterday. He was a flop two years ago but I'll give him another chance.

Trinidad & Tobago lost to Wales' second string yesterday. Stan James are 6/4 they don't get any points. Looks fair to me. Sweden are 1.31 on BF to beat them. England are 1.22, which could easily drop. Paraguay are currently 1.61. Add them all up and it's only marginally better than 6/4. The danger is the last game being a dead-rubber. I rate Paraguay though, and expect them to give Sweden a tough time. The way I can see the first two games going, I wouldn't be surprised to see Paraguay as low as 1.4 which would make the 6/4 look very generous.
