England v Hungary Football Friendly Odds and Match Preview

This England v Hungary international friendly at Wembley this week may have more importance attached to it than most soccer fans and punters actually think. This will be particularly true should England lose as it is already certain that boss, Fabio Capello already has the press ‘on his back’ and defeat in this they will mean that they will be ‘under his skin too’. The Bookmakers nonetheless, has England as huge odds on favourites to claim the victory with the best price of 1/3 coming from Bet365. The same Bookmakers give Hungary an 8/1 chance to win with the draw being a 4/1 option.

Capello of course has had to pick a squad which not only are capable of winning the match but also a squad that is likely to be the ‘backbone’ of the future England sides to come, with Euro 2012 qualification due to start next month. He has had to do so amidst players retiring from International football, injuries and without any of the players having played a league match so far this season.

In the event, he has selected a squad of youth and experience, which includes several players he rejected for the recent World Cup but he has included several of the ‘old guard’ including captain, Steven Gerrard, Wayne Rooney, John Terry, Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole. The most exciting inclusion is that of 18 year old Jack Wilshire of Arsenal who will almost certainly play for one half of the match. Darren Bent and Bobby Zamora have both made the squad this time and are amongst the favourites to score the opening goal of the night, for which the betting is as follows.

3/1 Wayne Rooney
4/1 Darren Bent
9/2 Bobby Zamora
9/2 Carlton Cole
13/2 Frank Lampard
13/2 Steven Gerrard
13/2 Theo Walcott
10/1 Jack Wilshire

Whatever the outcome of the match, Capello and his team can expect plenty of disdain from a Wembley crowd which by all accounts will be far from full. Only a solid win will appease them too, which means that defeat, draw or narrow unconvincing win will trigger a huge anti-Capello drive from fans and media alike and once that starts there will be no way out for the Italian.

Possibly the good news for England is that Hungary will come to the match having lost their last two internationals badly, they went down 0-3 to Germany in May and 1-6 to Holland just before the World Cup. On that basis England should be at least two goals better than Hungary in this match so perhaps the favourite Correct Score bet will be a 2-0 win for England which carries odds of 5/1 with bet365.com
