sweden/russia
 
spain batered russia 4-1, sweden were very unlucky to lose to spain

russia just beat greece 1-0, sweden beat greece 2-0 (could have been 3 or 4)

so why on earth do bookies have russia as favs over sweden

from swedens 2 games played and russias 2 games played sweden have been the better team

if it was me id have them both at 6/4 as there really isnt anything between them imo, but to have russia as favs for the match i dont agree with that

Russia ran into a rampant Spain in the first game and two of the 4 goals Spain scored were on the break whilst Russia pressing to try and get back into the game.

Dont sell Russia short - remember they beat England (for what thats worth) and have a potent strikeforce. Sweden are a little one dimensional, with only Ibrahimovic posing any real threat. Elmander looks useless and Larsson isnt the player he was.

It will be tight and i agree there is not much to split Russia/Sweden - I would take Russia to qualify with Spain though wouldnt like to predict the scoreline - it could even be a penalty shootout.

russia to qualify for me also
 
only thing that worries me with russia is actually scoring

they had 4-5 maybe even 6 or 7 great chances vs greece and only managed to score one

my longshot bet on pavluchenko to be top scorer at 125/1 could be in with a shout if he managed to convert any of the numerous chances he has had

if they manage to convert their chances then russia should go through to get knocked out by holland
