Croatia v Germany Bet Preview

09/06/2008:

The second round of matches in Group B gets underway with Croatia taking on the pre-tournament favourites Germany in what promises to be a thrilling encounter. Both teams won their opening games and know that a victory here would almost certainly guarantee their passage to the knockout stages. Betfair and Skybet recognise this game as a potentially great fixture and are giving away up to £25 worth of free bets to mark the occasion. Croatia beat Austria in their opening game thanks to a 4th minute penalty from Tottenham Hotspur bound Luka Modric, the fastest ever in the European Championship finals but they looked far from potential winners after a lacklustre display against the minnows of the competition. Croatia only had 36% of possession against the Austrians and looked dull in the final third without the injured Eduardo da Silva and against better opposition they could well have struggled. Slaven Bilic’s men know they will have to up their game against Germany side full of confidence.

Germany cruised to a 2-0 victory over a Poland side playing in their first finals. Ironically it was Polish-born Lukas Podolski who put the Germans in front on 20 minutes with his 26th goal in 49 international matches. Germany rarely looked in trouble and put the game beyond the reach of Poland with 18 minutes to go when Podolski netted his second goal of the game. The Germans missed numerous chances but were dominant throughout and looked like worthy tournament favourites at times. Germany will go into the game against Croatia confident they have history on their side having won five of the previous seven meetings between the two. Two leading bookmakers, Betfair and Skybet, are offering free bets with market leading odds on various markets including number of corners, total fouls, first and last goal scorer and the overall winner of the tie to name just some of the available betting markets.
