holland, portugal, rep. of ireland bankers for various reasons, france win banker also
for me no need more, i mean those bankers plus brazil to beat equador is great combo
sweden v northen ireland : no bet
georgia v scotland : no bet
scots are in must win situation,otherwise what achived so far may proved meaningless, imagine scots to fight for qualification against italians! no chance, so they will fight till hell to beat georgia, but...thats dream rather than reality, no bet
turkey v greece
away win or draw, one of the best selections
turkey plays very bad soccer, i watched them against hungary, they won, but referee pushed them in extreme and provoking way, when result was 0-0 in second half refused a clear penalty in favour of hungarians
greece is the defending champion i think they have excellent chance to beat turkey now, for revenge reasons, ideal timing to do this
I hate betting on international games and this round is going to be the same I `m going to stay away but ..
Macedonia v Andorra
1.08 for home win, no thanx
Even my dog knows that this could be one more shit and every result isn`t going to be surprise(at least for me ) ......
Macedonia is without a win at home for ....a realy don`t how many years and a don`t give a fukc they are much better team than those amateurs but one more 0-0 wouldn`t hurt anyone (both teams are just waiting for end of this shit )on the other hand some local idiots are going to full their pockets ....
My advice stay away from this game.....
Euro 2008 Qualifying
Andorra Macedonia 0:3
World Cup 2006 qualifiers
Macedonia Andorra 0:0
Yep, something strange happen for the second time I even was so stupid and watched that shit for 90`
Andorra Macedonia 1:0 First win ever for Andorra and plenty of cash for someone
Both Scott Brown and Alan Hutton are out of the squad for the Georgia game. Both had excellent games yesterday and will most certainly be missed. Also Lee McCulloch is suspended as is Gary O'Connor. McCulloch was another certain starter, O'Connor won't be as big a miss. Left back Gary Naysmith is also struggling apparently. Added to Hartley (who I think would have played on Wednesday) and Caldwell already being out and we are down to bare bones.
Greame Murty of Reading has been added to the squad as well as, big bonus, Darren Fletcher. Apparently Fletch has trained for the last week with Man Utd and Fergie is happy for him to join up. His last game was the France game in Sept (only 20 odd mins) so he will be lacking match sharpness but I can see him starting.
Line up, at the moment, that I expect for Wednesday
Gordon
Alexander
McManus
Weir
Naysmith (or possibly McEveley if Naysmith out)
Maloney
Ferguson
Fletcher
Pearson
McFadden
Miller
1.57 is a bit short, but understandable given current form, but definately a game for keeping your money in your pocket and, hopefully, watching a Scotland win
however, scotland doesnt have any away fame, i mean normally they dont perform well away, there is of cource the bib big match against france recently...
i never change my initial view, to stay out of this, i watched great scotland against ukraine, they were very impressive, and very passionate, but now is a long trip in georgia, in a very unhospitable envoiroment, rumours that locals may fix the away win, but i dony trust rumours
scotland definitely the better side, definitely the power side, locals are in dark scenery of fixing or not games ( personally i have no idea), decided to stay away

Georgia are without arguably their best two players, captain Khaladze of AC Milan and kobiashvili of Schalke wont play
"PFC CSKA Sofia right-sided midfielder Florentin Petre has been added to the Romania squad for Wednesday's qualifier against Luxembourg after Adrian Mutu, Paul Codrea and Banel Nicoliţă were handed one-match suspensions after being booked in Saturday's 1-0 win against the Netherlands. A win would see Romania earn a place at UEFA EURO 2008 provided Bulgaria fail to beat Albania in Tirana."
Romania should be able to win by 2 or 3 goals here
Sorry - pushed for time so can't go into much detail..
Germany v Czech Republic - Under 2.5 goals - 8 pt stake @1.9
Both are as good as through and Germany appear to be just doing enough now that they've done all the hard work..
Albania v Bulgaria - Under 2.5 goals - 7 pt stake @ 1.84
Bulgaria need to win, but Albania are incredibly stubborn at home..
Turkey v Greece - Over 2.5 goals - 6 pt stake @ 2.18
Big derby particularly for turkey who be going all out against a confident and relaxed Greece who want to stick it up against the old enemy..I see goals
Macedonia is not playing well at all lately and at home is without a win for more than three years. Andorra owes big time, to this generation of Macedonian football players. Macedonian national football team sufferer shameful defeat against Andorra away in previous qualifications and then at home they drew 0:0. Macedonia paid some of that debt with 0:3 victory away earlier in these qualifications, but today they are in must win situation. Some of you will ask question, why is in must win situation because the three points will not get them higher on the table.
Macedonia yesterday suffered the biggest lost in their modern history, the biggest pop-star, the most popular man in the country, the most loved person in Macedonia, one of the biggest humanist in the country and big patriot Tose Proeski died in car accident at age of 26. Tomorrow is day of sadness in whole country and 90% of Macedonians are still in tears. Football players said that they will dedicate this match to him and for this match the entrance will be free. I expect many people in the stadium cheering for Macedonian players to give well farewell to the big man.
Macedonia will be without Stojkov and Nikolovski, but both can be replaced. I think that Macedonia will trash tomorrow Andorra. I expect score line around 5:0
Scotland manager Alex McLeish claims his players have every right to be confident and insists they will not be caught up in the sort of hysteria which surrounded the ill-fated 1978 World Cup campaign under Ally MacLeod.
With two games remaining in their Euro 2008 qualifying campaign, the Scots are four points away from guaranteeing a place in the finals of a major tournament for the first time since 1998.
A remarkable run of results including victories home and away against France, has served to crank up the enthusiasm of the Tartan Army which went up another notch after the 3-1 win over Ukraine on Saturday at Hampden.
Amid all the unprecedented hype which surrounded the 1978 World Cup, MacLeod had promised the country he would come back with a medal, a claim which backfired on him spectacularly after Scotland failed to escape from the group.
Asked about possible comparisons with 1978, McLeish, preparing his side for their penultimate match against Georgia in Tbilisi on Wednesday, said: "There is nothing wrong with showing confidence and we have to at this stage, as long as it's not conceit and it's not.
"I don't think there have been any statements that we are going to win the European Championships or the World Cup so in that respect the players have been able to handle everything.
"A few games ago the headlines and attention worried me a little bit, then I thought, 'It's part of the territory and we have to handle that', and we have done that.
"The players have earned the right to be confident.
"It's not complacency, it's not conceit, it's confidence and belief but we know that we have a hard game.
"Whatever happens now they should be proud of what they have achieved."
McLeish added: "There is still a lot of work to be done. It is very close and yet very far.
"We know that at the very worst, we can take it to the last game against Italy at Hampden.
"We will try to win it within our strategy. I am not going to tell you that we are going all out for a victory or that we will attack, attack, attack the whole game.
"That could be foolish and I don't know if we are capable of doing that.
"We are capable of doing many things but it has never been in the strategy and it has served us well up this juncture.
"The Italians and French are more experienced and by rights, the two of them should be better teams than us so let's not forget that.
"It's our intention to win tomorrow night and it is our intention to qualify."
McLeish has lost Lee McCulloch and Garry O'Connor to suspension and Scott Brown and Alan Hutton through injury.
Manchester United midfielder Darren Fletcher, who suffered a knee injury in the 1-0 win over France in Paris last month, has declared himself fit again and Reading right-back Graeme Murty has also been drafted in.
Barry Ferguson, Kenny Miller and Gary Naysmith are all one booking away from missing the crucial game against Italy at Hampden next month.
Former Rangers boss McLeish is fearful of "silly bookings" that would deplete his squad again for the visit of Italy next month.
He said: "There will be times when the occasion can get to you and it happens to the French and Italians as well.
"So we are not unique in picking up one or two bookings.
"By and large the lads have handled the group stage magnificently.
"I wouldn't have imagined that we would get through every game without a suspension or two.
"Silly bookings would be a tragedy for one or two players so they will be well aware of that without taking away their strengths of their game.
"If it was a silly one they would only have themselves to blame but I believe that they are mature enough to handle it."
Few words about Albania v Bulgaria game...
The moral in Bulgarian team is low, because of the Romanian victory over Holland on Saturday. That cut off Bulgarian chances to go to Euro 2008. They'll try to win somehow but it's gonna be very, very hard in Albania. Odds 1.60 - 1.80 for AW are too damn short.
So, at first sight under looks a great bet. Yes, there are some reasons not to take under in that game - Bulgarian defence is shite, Berbatov and Petrov are great offensive power and can score and maybe Bulgarian team will be open minded in that game. On the other hand Albania are really a solid team at home. Holland clinched 1:0 win in the last minute some weeks ago.
Maybe I'll take under at 1.79, Betfair and lay it eventually. Cover bet 1:2 is also recomended.
In fact I like the most Expekt's offer - time of first goal after 29th minute @2.10 - this will be my only solid bet for that game 5pts.
