Russia vs Brazil

And who better to invite when you’re having a celebration than the Samba Boys?

Russia squad are looking forward to hosting the World Cup this summer and this is the perfect appetiser.

The football betting world has one of its biggest and brightest extravaganzas on the way. Fans and pundits are starting to pick their favourites, and while you won’t see too much interest around Russia on the betting websites, Brazil have their backers all around the world as potential winners.

Only Germany is higher ranked by FIFA than Tite’s team, while the hosts are way down in 63rd.Still, home fans will hope for a show of intent when they welcome their heroes at the Luzhniki Stadium. They have a chance; Brazil drew 0-0 with England on their last outing back in November, and are at odds of 1.84 to win on Friday, with a -0.75 goal handicap; Russia are at 2.08 with that helping hand.

The Samba Boys stormed the notoriously tough South American qualifying group and have a wealth of attacking talent throughout the team, including Premier League stars Roberto Firmino and Gabriel Jesus, and Barca’s expensive recruit Philippe Coutinho. There are goals from the back too, from the likes of Real Madrid’s Marcelo, so there could be quite a party if the tourists are on song. You can get odds of 2.09 on over 2.50 goals.

Russia haven’t won in three but earned an exciting 3-3 draw last time out against Spain wherein Fyodor Smolov scored twice, the second one an absolute screamer. The Krasnodor striker is Russia’s most potent threat with 11 goals in his 28 internationals. Coach Stanislav Cherchesov might well partner Smolov with Locomotiv’s attacking midfielder Aleksei Miranchuck.

Another 3-3 would be a great start to a lively weekend!
