Making a World Cup 2010 Bet on Ghana against Uruguay   by Lynn Smith

Of the 8 squads outstanding in the World Cup, Ghana and Uruguay are receiving the least amount of interest from American gamblers making a World Cup 2010 gamble.

One of these 2 squads however is going to make the semifinals in World Cup gambling. In a competition that can be seen on ESPN, they meet on Friday in the quarterfinals.

Uruguay is a solid favorite to wipe out Ghana on Friday. They’re -220 with the total at 2 under. The three-way line lists Uruguay at Even, Ghana at +285 and the Draw at +210.

Uruguay has kept a clean sheet in four of their last six matches and hasn’t lost in their last six World Cup games. For the first time since 1970, Uruguay is in the quarterfinals. They have 2 quite good goal scorers in Diego Forlan and Luis Suarez who have three goals each in the World Cup. Uruguay is going to win when Suarez makes a goal. They have won the last 22 matches when Suarez scores. He has obtained 55 goals this year in his 61 appearances for his club and for Uruguay.

Uruguay has been solid from the first whistle of this year’s World Cup gambling tournament alternatively. Most sports gambling buffs didn’t even give this team a possibility to progress past the group stage, picking instead soccer gambling heavyweights like France and Mexico. But Uruguay played the French to a 0-0 tie in the opener and made mincemeat of Mexico on its way to a 7 point haul in Group A.

Ghana has performed with a huge amount of heart, squeaking out draws and wins by the slimmest of margins including the team’s most recent Round of 16 victories over the US side. It’s qualified for the quarterfinals by the slimmest of margins and will probably play in its last competition on Friday versus Uruguay. Even versus the US squad this team was more than fortunate to win and it took an amazing goal in overtime to whip the US.

Ghana is directed by Asamoah Gyan who has four goals in the World Cup. Ghana is the third African team to make the quarterfinals of the World Cup as Cameroon managed it in 1990 and Senegal in 2002. They’re trying to become the first African team to achieve the semifinals. Jonathan Mensah and Andre Ayew will be suspended so Ghana will be competing devoid of them. The bigger concern could be the health of Gyan who injured his ankle in training on Monday. He isn’t anticipated to miss Friday’s competition but he could not be at top form.

The health of Uruguay defender Diego Dodin could be another essential in this competition on Friday. He’s not anticipated to start as a result of injury. Coach Oscar Tabarez does not feel he’s ready for a full competition, though he could still play. Uruguay has granted only one goal thus far in the World Cup.

Uruguay has more scoring, a better defense and a better goaltender, though the home crowd advantage will undoubtedly be for Ghana in this match. That’s why they’re favored to win this game versus Ghana and make the semifinals.
