Where can I see It?
Why Bet on Costa Rica
Costa Rica is trying to pick up the pace, after their first match in the group stage, as it simply looked as if this wouldn’t be their year.
Spain was their first opponent and it was a bloodbath, as they battered Costa Rica with a final score of 7-0. They, however, picked up and landed a 1-0 victory against Japan.
Even with a victory over them, Japan is still on top of the group due to the score from the first match.
Now they need to get a second victory against a pretty tough opponent to take a step away from elimination.
If they get the upset, they require Spain to draw or beat Japan to get their spot in the knock-out phase.
Why Bet on Germany
Germany is one of the teams that was expected to shine bright during the group phase, and as they were placed with Spain, it was expected for them both to be fighting for the first spot.
This was not the case, as Japan managed to turn around and get an upset in the first match. This slowed them down, but the draw with Spain proved that they are a tough team who is picking up the pace.
Now that they face Costa Rica, they are going to have to do their best and run them over while they expect Spain to stop Japan from scoring, to have a chance at qualifying for the knock-out stage.
Final Betting Analysis: Costa Rica vs. Germany
This match is going to be quite interesting as Germany’s opportunity to qualify is on the line.
At MyBookie.ag we can see that the Moneyline seems to indicate that Germany, which is at -1098, should be running over Costa Rica, which starts at +2700, in this meeting. Germany is a top-tier team, but they are placed in a difficult situation, so expect them to be relentless as they attempt to get as close as possible to securing the spot in the next phase.
Costa Rica should be preparing themselves not to receive a beating like the one they received from Spain, but it seems like they might have a tough day anyway. Our pick for this match is for Germany to get a 3-0 score over Costa Rica.
