PREVIEW
The Germany v Portugal clash at 5pm is without doubt the pick of today’s matches in Brazil.
Both teams are odds-on to qualify from Group G – with the two outsiders Ghana and USA battling it out later.
The headlines have all been focussed around one man – you’ve guessed it Cristiano Ronaldo and whether he is fit enough for another World Cup campaign. There are conflicting reports doing the rounds and if was USA or Ghana tonight he might well be rested but Portugal really do need him for this pivotal game.
The signs are that he will be in the starting 11.
Without Ronaldo, Portugal look very pedestrian but Germany have had their fair share of injury problems too.
Marco Reus was ruled out through injury and that leaves veteran Miroslav Klose as their only recognised striker.
It will be close, but Germany can usually be relied upon when they are centre stage and have had the edge over Portugal over the years.
Germany to be in front at HT and FT appeals on BETDAQ at around 3.2.
RECOMMENDATION: (1-10 points per bet)
