Boosted considerably by their outstanding draw against Italy last week, Northern Ireland now take on the Group C ‘whipping boys’, the Faroe Islands on Tuesday, in a match that could put the Irish into a very strong group position. They have been made massive 1/3 odds on favourites in the betting to win the match by VC Bet with the hosts only given a 10/1 chance to claim all three points; the draw is a 4/1 option.
The home side, have already lost four times from four matches played in Euro 2012, Group C so far and have absolutely no chance of qualifying, but that does not mean Nigel Worthington’s men should take the win for granted. The Islanders are more than capable of offering stiff and stubborn resistance and could easily disrupt the ‘Irish’ flow, in the same way as they did to Estonia, when losing by 1-2, in their opening Group game in August.

Faroe Islands boss, Brian Kerr has persuaded goalkeeper, Jaakup Mikkelson to return to the side due to injury to regular keeper, Gunnar Nielsen, he has also recalled defender Bartal Eliasen to the squad and is likely to give an international debut to 20 year old defender Erling Jacobsen. Striker Christian Mouritsen will also be available and will be hoping to add to the goal he scored against Slovenia last week, where the Faroe Islands were thumped by 5-1. Mouritsen is a 17/4 bet with Victor Chandler to be anytime scorer in this match on Tuesday.
As good as the 0-0 draw was against Italy last week, Northern Ireland know that they had good chances to score but their strike force were not quite at their best to make that happen. Nonetheless, Worthington will keep the faith in David Healy and Chris Brunt to provide the goals in this match. Healy in fact is the 5/6 favourite in the betting to score at anytime in the match and is a good looking bet at 18/5 with vc bet to score the first goal.
Latest Euro 2012 Betting Comparisons
As most football followers will know, Northern Ireland normally go into their matches as the underdogs, but this time they are red hot favourites, which will mean that they must approach and play this game with a different mindset. It will be interesting to see how they get on, but we think that they are at least two goals better than the ‘Islanders’ and would fancy a 2-0 or 3-0 result in their favour by the end of the 90 minutes. These Correct score outcomes can be backed at 5/1 and 15/2 respectively with V Chandler,anything of course, other than a win would be a disaster for them.
