RUSSIA vs SWEDEN (EURO 2008)

<2.48> <3.32> <2.35>

this tournament has seen one trend amongst the teams - the attacking side always prevails. the turks beat the czechs, the portuguese beat the czechs. the greeks were humbled by a slightly more offensive sweden, and russia's constant attacking killed off greece. sweden themselves, were losers to spain, who never stopped creating chances. and then there's holland, whose successful offense has killed off both france and italy, who seemed content to get a draw. as such, i'm backing the russians here, as they have shown more creativity and willingness to get forward, as compared to the swedes, who pride themselves on their organisation (nice way to say that they are shitkickers). andrei arshavin is back, and he should give a boost to the russians, who need a win to advance.

- Eddy's prediction: $10 on russia @ 2.48 = $24.80
