I've been waiting for matchups with really good chance of upset and I think it will be today.
Swizz to Qualify +333
Argentina seem to never hit it off during the Group Stage. I watched all their games and I can't figure out what's missing. They look a step behind and disconnected at times. Swizz isn't that great and but had a decent group stage. They have enough quality to match this current Argentina team. Ottmar Hitzfeld would pretty much used Iran's game as a template on making it a long day for the opposition. I'm also hoping for keeper Benaglio to stay at such top form. I see the game going scoreless the first half and pretty much extend to extra time. I'm banking on a possible extra time goal here taking advantage of just one lapse or a Pk victory.
SWI 1 (4) PEN
ARG 1 (3)
USA to Qualify +162
USA seem to almost always figure somewhat dramatic way to make their matches exciting. I get this feeling that USA play like how Algeria did during their first half game against Belgium but pretty much pull it off the whole game. This team is in top form and i dont see them lagging even if stretched to 120. I think this will be a battle of attrition and goals will be decided pretty late in the game. I see Belgium playing more cautious against a team that deflected Germany's non stop offense earlier in the tournament. This should stretch the game and I see it going back and forth. Belgium pretty much controls majority of ball possession here with USA trying hard to score on counters. Again, game should be decided pretty late.
USA 1 F ET
