Nigeria take on Greece in this crucial second Group B match at the Free State Stadium in Bloemfontein, with both knowing that defeat will almost certainly mean that they will be homeward bound sooner rather than later. The Super Eagles, who went down to Group favourites, Argentina, by 0-1 in their opening game, have been made 10/11 odds on to win this match, while Greece are a best price of 3/1 to win with the draw a 9/4 option. These odds are available from VC Bet.
Amazingly, Greece are FIFA ranked number 13, but their 0-2 defeat at the hands of South Korea last weekend meant that they have yet to win or even draw a game in the World Cup Finals. They have only qualified once before and that was back in 1994, where they lost all three of their Group games. Facts such as these plus their woeful performance against South Korea does not make them a good betting proposition. Indeed they have only been given a 14/1 chance of qualifying from the Group, while Nigeria are at least given more hope at 7/5.
Greece v Nigeria Comprehensive Betting Preview and Odds Comparisons.
With neither side able to play at their best in their opening matches it is difficult to assess how this game will pan out. Greek fans will hope that the players have been re-motivated and can come out in a positive frame of mind at least, while Nigeria, who will have the crowd support on their side, will know that they are just as capable as South Korea and will have their sights set on three points.

It is always interesting to note what the Bookmakers are thinking ahead of games such as these. For instance Victor Chandler has Nigerian players only filling in the top three places in the likely First Goalscorer market, with Obafemi Martins favourite at 5/1, while Yakubu is 11/2. The most likely to score the first goal of the match should Greece score it is Theofanis Gekas at 17/2.
We think that this could be a dour affair, with neither side daring to lose. Usually, when this happens, matches end in a stalemate, or one side scores when least expected to, or even against the run of play. It would come as no surprise to us therefore to see Greece pull this off and as such we are tempted to take on the 1-0 Greece win with odds of 7/1 on offer from victor chandler.
