Russia Euro 2008 Betting

Russia who qualified from their Group behind Croatia and ahead of England, are a very good team on their day, but a very poor one on their off days. Their qualification record of just seven wins in a group that was not particularly tough, does not inspire confidence, nor does their recent 0-3 defeat against Romania, in a pre-tournament friendly, admittedly they were under strength for that match. Coach Gus Hiddinck remains optimistic though and firmly believes his team can emulate Greece in Euro 2004 and be a major surprise.

Russia Coach

Gus Hiddinck is another renowned International coach with a great reputation. Some argue that he has done exceptionally well to even get his team to Euro 2008, and say that anything else is a bonus. He was taken on as the Russian coach following much success at both Club and International levels. He has just taken PSV to the Dutch League title and was the man behind the World cup successes of both Australia and Korea. He is man with a proven track record and any success the Russians have will be down to their coach’s masterful grasp of the game.

Russia Best Betting Tip

The 33/1 offered to win the Tournament are fair odds but unless Hiddink can pull off a major shock then these odds should be left alone. We advise to make individual match bets with this side, as we feel the Group might well be a close affair. The odds of them winning the Group are 5/1 and to qualify they are 11/8.
