Portugal has never been so strong as nowadays...

In the last years they've achieved:

-Semi-final Euro 2000, Final Euro 2004, Semi-Final WC 2006!

And after the portuguese "golden generation" with Joao V. Pinto, Figo, Rui Costa, Pauleta and many others this seems to be the best group of athletes portugal ever had!

Attackers like Simao(Benfica), Quaresma(Porto), Ronaldo (Man Utd) and Nani (Sporting) make the defenses go crazy...

Midfield with such solid players as Tiago (Lyon), Petit (Benfica), Deco (Barcelona), João Moutinho (Sporting) and Hugo Viana (Valencia)...

Strong Defense with Ricardo Carvalho (Chelsea), Paulo Ferreira (Chelsea), Jorge Andrade (Coruña) and Miguel (Valencia) and the keeper Ricardo (Sporting).

In this game only Deco is out for injury but Moutinho is in great form and has been MoM agains Belgium... The attackers are fighting hardly for a place in the team and all of them can produce amazing football!

Ok, Serbia has a nice team but they're under pressure and portuguese players will give them no chance!

I believe this odd's are amazingly high...

High stakes on Portugal!

P.S: Picking a high score ( 0-3, 1-3 ) also seems a great idea if you think about the high odd's!

Chelsea has been far from their best lately! They gave a 6 points lead to Man Utd and now they are desperate to get them back... Man Utd's draw against Newcastle is the extra motivation that Chelsea players needed for this game... They know they really need 3 points if they want to be in the fight for Premiership tittle! Chelsea is 7-1-2 away and Villa is 4-3-3 home... The odd is probably bigger than we could expect because of H2H!

Chelsea's last away win against Villa was in 1998/99 and in the last 7 games, 5 turned into a draw! But history hasn't real value here imo! Chelsea needs the points, Mourinho knows this is the time and they have to win and convince their fans! I'm usually a low staker but I'll go high stakes on this one! 10 stakes for Mourinho and Chelsea to get 2 points from Manchester....

Predicted result 1-3

See the last analysis!

Newcastle 0-2 Man.United Premier League Newcastle 1-4 Man.United The FA Cup 2004/2005
Newcastle 1-3 Man.United Premier League 2004/05
Newcastle 1-2 Man.United Premier League 2003/04
Newcastle 2-6 Man.United Premier League 2002/03

This is what happened in the last games between these two teams! Man Utd wins and for a clear margin...

This year they are playing better than ever and than everyone... Ronaldo seems to be unstopable and even if there are problems to score he will be there... To assist, to score defend, to take bookings from defenders, everything!

Newcastle won last 4 Premiership games at home but I believe they won't be able to take anything from this game!

Wigan has been doing a very nice job this season... But they are one of the few teams which home record (3-2-4) is as good as the away one (3-2-4)! They have been achieving nice results agains low and mid-placed teams but they've been unable to upset bigger teams.... To prove it :

13/12/2006 Wigan Ath. 0-1 Arsenal
02/12/2006 Wigan Ath. 0-4 Liverpool
14/10/2006 Wigan Ath. 1-3 Man.United

Also remember that their 22 points were mainly gotten in late october and beggining of November in which they made amazing record (V-V-V-V-D) and took 13 points!!!

If you remember that their opponent is Chelsea and they are really motivated after getting back on track (they depend only on theirselves now) I really can't believe they won't go for the win! And even if it is very hard to score... Drogba's genius is out there :)

Medium stakes because of low odd :)

Juventus has been having some recent problems in getting 3 points when playing away! So, they are in 3rd place, 3 points away from the first which is... Bologna :)

They have a great team and haven't lost this season (victorious run at home and 4-4-0 away)... This is the time to show they will be in Serie A next year and they will be back to top again!
