Euro 2008 - Germany vs Croatia Football betting preview

Both teams surprised me. Germany showed a powerful football, great in the game tactic, very solid in the front, with Podolski, Gomez and Klose making a good attack, and good in defense, specially Lahm, Lehman and Mertesacker.

They are, in fact, strong favourites to go, at least to the semi's. If they win today, they are almost guaranteed to win the group and avoid play with Portugal and play with Czechs or Turks.

Croatia didn't impressed me much, in a game against a weak Austria. They accused some pressure or lack of confidence; Austria, i almost could call them amateurs if compared with the other teams, controlled the game in some moments. The only goal was in a penalty, in the start of the game, and that could have changed Croatia way of play, however, in a general way, they didn't showed the football they played in the road to the EURO 2008.

Germany won 2-0 against Polland and could even won by more. Motivated, solid team, strong perfomances, they have to win and they will win.
