England v Trinidad and Tobago Odds and Betting Preview
30th May, 2008
After the midweek success against USA, England travel to Trinidad and Tobago in the final international friendly before Euro 2008 commences. The match will be an unusual one, with a number of the first team squad given a break by the new England coach Fabio Capello. The game will effectively be used to see how the fringe players fare on the big stage and how they work together. We can expect players trying to impress and wanting plenty of time on ball, which should mean a fast paced game.
England v Trinidad and Tobago Odds
Trinidad and Tobago have been given impressively long odds for a win on Sunday night, despite the home advantage. VC Bet are offering the best odds at 9/1 for a home win, which is unlikely to be a popular bet. VC Bet also offer the best odds on a draw at 4/1. The 2/5 on offer for an England win is too short to take seriously, although some may argue it does have some value. Read below for other bets with more value.
England v Trinidad and Tobago Betting Preview
With a number of the top England players rested after the recent Champions League final, there are a number of different players to consider for goalscorer bets. Ashton is tipped to start, and the 6/1 on offer for first goalscorer looks to have value. Some may look to big-game players like Joe Cole at 9/1 to net first with Paddy Power.
England will be the more aggressive side, and going for England to lead at half time and full time at best odds of 10/11 with a number of bookmakers also represents value. Paddy Power are offering 13/5 on England -2 goals, and 10/11 -1 goal. Both will be popular as the new England boys look to impress.
Paddy Power also go with 11/10 that England will win without conceding, which seems good value with Rio Ferdinand in the squad. One final bet to think about is offered by Boylesports at 11/5, for there to be more goals in the first half than the second. At over 2/1 and expecting a quick start, this seems a good bet.
