Comminity Shield Odds

The Community Shield Odds for this Sunday's Community Shield Betting match between Manchester United and Portsmouth has United as clear favourites at 4/6. Pompey meanwhile are given almost no hope and are quoted at 11/2. Pompey's odds look very good value as Harry Redknapp has had few problems in assembling and motivating his squad of players for this coming season. After winning the FA Cup last year, Redknapp has the scent of more of more honours in his nostrils and you can bet your life that they will go out and have a real go at the Premier League Champions. With Crouch and Defoe eager to impress up front for Pompey, United might have their hands full and a big surprise could well be on the cards here.

United are unlikely to have Ronaldo, Rooney and Carrick in their side so there must be questions about who will get their goals, but it has to be noted that Vidic is now back in the centre of defence alongside Captain, Rio Ferdinand meaning Crouch and Co will not find it that easy to score. Portsmouth will have Kanu on the bench along with new loan signing, Israeli striker Ben Sahar, although top midfielder Lasana Diarra will be missing. The presence of the two strikers on the bench will hopefully serve as a good motivational factor for Crouch and Defoe and it would come as no surprise if one or even both of these should score on Sunday. We take Pompey to secure a surprise win, even if it does mean doing so in a penalty shoot out.
