Belarus - Austria

IMO an ideal bet for Danny's double (1X) or in any form of bet ...

* Belarus' last WC-campaign home-games : wins ag. Norway (2-1) and Poland (4-1) / lost 0-2 ag. Ukraine (0-2)
* Austria's away games : draws 0-0 and 1-1 in Bosnia and Israël and a 4-0 loss in Spain.

Great value in the homewin IMO : 2,50 available

I hear from my sources that Belarus are a rapidly improving nation and they are just as likely as Austria IMO to get the 3 points at the moment in front of their own crowd. Given the fact that they are by far the better of the odds, Belarus is worthy of a single. The most potential for an international upset IMO (then again, I woulnt consider it an upset)

I wouldn't consider it an upset either if Belarus won The 4-1 win over Poland has to be their most impressive result. Surely Austria's only hope is a draw. I can't see an away win here at all...

Austria are nothing in terms of world football nowadays. Belarus are on their way upwards. Small stake home win single for me.

Hope you like the tables above.

I've also gone Home win on this one. Belarus are an improving side and have been hard to beat on their own patch, especially in the last World Cup Qualifying group, only losing to the Ukraine.

Caught brief highlights of Austria's last victory when they were at home to Moldova. Needed two very dubious penalties to beat a relatively poor side only 2-0.

At the odds available, Belarus are a great price at around 2.6 in some places.

Nice tables indeed MC

Out of all the weekend Internationals Belarus are the only side I really fancy this weekend.

You can get 4/1 on Belarus -1 on the h/c. (BlueSq.) Not bad odds either...
