Default Re: Outright value

Here is an idea,it helps if you can trade at the best prices......as always.

Why not lay England and Germany to make the Final 8 ? Current prices 1.47-1.49 ENG and 1.57-1.58 GER.
The beauty of this is that there must be a 40%+ chance of them meeting each other in the Round of 16.Many have said that Ecuador don't have to fear England and who knows Sweden would have a similar or better chance against Germany.
Using idiot figures,you lay out 2units on each at an average of 1.5. When Eng and Ger meet you immediately win a unit and when they don't,you have two poorish(but not that poor) bets at 2-1, on Sweden and Ecuador to go through.
