Netherlands v Ghana (friendly)

Intro

Tonight we see two world cup teams in action Netherlands & Ghana, both facing tough groups. Netherlands are fancying there chance of winning there first world cup while Ghana are looking to beat there previous best which was to reach the last 16.

Netherlands are facing a tough and unpredictable African side, similar to that of Cameroon who they will face in what is likely to be there hardest group game and the one that is likely to be most crucial to whether they finish 1st or 2nd or 3rd in group E.

Ghana playing a very well paced and skilled Holland side that should prepare them for the likes of European football from there groups big to sides, Germany & Serbia, who currently look the favourites to qualify to the second phase but Ghana might spoil the party and a victory today in Holland will make them very strong contenders for that.

Form

Netherlands: WDDDWW

Ghana: LWWWLL

Netherlands have recently seen of teams like USA & Mexico with 2-1 victories and pulling out 0-0 draws against other strong sides Italy, Paraguay & Australia.

Ghana have beaten other African giants Nigeria & Angola with 1-0 victories but have also lost to Egypt and Ivory Coast (1-0 and 3-1 respectively) and a lose to the average European side Bosnia & Herzegovina 2-1 as well things are very inconstant.

Odds

Netherlands 1/3 Draw 19/5 Ghana 17/2

Its Netherlands game tonight to prove they can beat another World Cup side on there way to the World Cup, Ghana might pull off a good game but I don't feel certain by any means but if you are one to back underdogs Ghana are fantastically priced at 17/2 for a side that can be very unpredictable against good sides, but also look at the draw at 19/5 which is still a very good return. I can see this being a high scoring match maybe Netherlands 1-0 or 2-0 (both at 11/2)

Other good bets to look at:

Ghana or the Draw - 2/1

Under 2.5 goals - 21/20
