Switzerland v Czech Republic Odds

The Switzerland v Czech Republic odds for this opening Switzerland Czech Republic opening match in Euro 2008 favour the Czech’s to win narrowly.

Co-hosts Switzerland are confident ahead of the match, to be played in the Swiss Capital of Basle. The last time the two countries met on the soccer pitch was in 1999, when the Czech’s overwhelmed the Swiss in a 3-0 drubbing. That game was played in the Czech Republic but the Swiss have a much better record against the Czech’s on home soil. They have played 15 times and have won 6 each, with three drawn.

Opening matches in major soccer Tournaments used to be anti-climactic encounters with neither side fully committing to the match in fear of losing. A draw was always a popular result. However and certainly in the last three major Tournaments, opening match result ‘s have changed, as countries realise that three points earned in the first game puts the other Group contenders under severe pressure from the start. This will be on the mind of both teams on Saturday night.

As co-hosts the Swiss are under pressure to do well and they are probably more desperate to win this match than the Czech’s. However they also know that it is a tough ask and if they were offered a draw at the outset, they would almost certainly take it. The Czech’s on the other hand, while not turning down a draw, know that a win would put them in pole position in the Group.

The Swiss have had two confidence boosting pre-tournament friendly wins against Liechtenstein and Slovakia, but prior to them they had lost four matches in a row. The Czech’s on the other hand have looked very impressive with wins against Scotland and Lithuania. The Czech’s also looked impressive in qualifying for the Finals, finishing on top of their Group with only one defeat in 12 matches. They also beat Tournament favourites, Germany and finished ahead of them in the Group. The Swiss qualified as co-hosts. The betting has the Czech’s at 6/4, the Swiss are best priced at 15/8 and the draw is 9/4.
