World Cup 2010 Qual. - Syria v Uzbekistan
22 June 2008
Preview By Tipster Simo982 (Slovenia)
Asian Handicap Line AH (-0,5) : AH (+0,5)
Both teams have already qualified to the next stage, so it is kind of a friendly game.However hosts should be more motivated here. Despite four wins and only one loss they weren`t as impresive as expected which brought to a change of coach.Brasilian coach Dos Anjos was replaced by well known coach Al Johar, which imediately led to a great performance against Singapore. Coach said he will use his best players againt Uzbekistan and that great news for this pick. Saudis are one of the best teams in the middle east if not the best and their home record says it all.They won all three games at home in this campaign and also the last 9 games at home with impressive goal difference.
Uzbekistan won all 5 games in this campaign and they were dominating in all their matches.Just like Saudis they were extremely impressive at home where they didn`t concede a single goal. Visitors won`t come to Riyad with their best players. Coach announced he will use some new players, while their key duo Denisov and Shatskih surely won`t play. In their latest game they were far from being impressive against the depleted team of Singapore and won only by a single goal just a few minutes till the end.
Motivation is surely on home side and considering the fact that that Saudis regularly beat Uzbekistan at home I find these odds more that attractive and I will invest medium/high stakes on this one! Good luck!
