Germany are concerned with banged up Neuer, Lahm & Schweinsteiger. I do not see Low risking them in a meaningless friendly. Germany should win easily but by 3 ??? Last time that happened in a friendly for Germany was in 2011. That was also the last time Armenia lost by more than 2 in a friendly. Armenia are not that bad of a side they tied Italy, beat Denmark & the Czech republic last year in meaningful WCQ games all AWAY from home.
2. Mexico to DRAW @ 3.30/+230 (INT f) 1 Unit
Without Ronaldo Portugal are an average side at best & that is likely what we will see in this matchup where both sides want to stay healthy. The Mexicans will start their strongest side after a dismal game versus Bosnia. I was tempted to take Mexico to win outright but I just don't see any of these sides pressing hard for a victory.

DJ.....I'm starting to see a very unique trend from years past. " Friendlies " used to be a way for teams to build confidence going into the World Cup. Put a few lame ducks on your schedule and hammer them by 5 or 6 goals. Now, it seems that managers are just trying to protect their key players from injury, as you mentioned. A lot of the power house teams seem to be going through the motions.
Think you are right about Portugal. Ill even go so far as to say that they don't get out of their group. I just don't see the depth, and clearly Ronaldo still isn't 100 %.
BOL with your plays

The long national seasons tend to tire out the stars, & Euro teams always have more WC & EC qualification games
DON"T BET THE OVER
Kind of obvious why try too shoot for the moon, testing tactics is the trend.
DOGS BITE
I usually play the Asian Handicap on the dogs as the public will always back the team with the 'NAME"
AND DRAWS DRAWS DRAWS
It's a friendly, what better way to be so than to end up level...teams don't press at the end of the match to score the winner because it does not matter

I do agree with your 4 rules, love unders in friendlies. I feel very good about your Armenia pick, especially since we most likely will concede 1 or 2 goals. BoL

DJ do you see any value playing the draw in the Germany/Armenia match @ 12.00 for a small wager?? Considering their ties in those WCQ matches you mentioned?
