Basel
This quarterfinal match would be one of the most attractive one. Two teams, which qualities are especially in the offense. Netherlands have shown a beatiful footbal in the first round. They scored 9 goals and won all three matches. And their performances were at least as good as their results.
First game was a bit of nigthmare for Russian national team. They lost 4:1 to Spain. But next two matches showed, that Hiddink's team have something to show to fans of football. They played very offensive, but have some problems to score from chances they have created. If they don't improve this ability the match against Dutch will be their last one.
Ninety minutes of great football. Great offensive plays from both of sides. Many goals. And win for Netherlands. That's my view of this incoming match.
My tips are:
1 - The highest odd:
1,75
Over 2,5 goals - The highest odd:
2,00
