I also just put £20 on Switzerland to beat Spain this afternoon, with a potential return of £260!

Come on Switzerland!

I don't know who to bet on.

I was going to bet on Spain, but the return is only £4 now.

Anyone who follows football;

Spain V Switzerland - Either team red cards.

Wise bet? Do these players often get red cards?

I would say no. There as been 2 in this WC already but I wouldn't call Spain a dirty team (not sure about the Swiss)

Take a look at first goal scorer or a player to score at any time.

I'd say that's pretty safe. I should think the players will be a little more cautious about a red card at this stage. It's a complete gamble though really, depends what the odds are like as to whether or not it's worth it.

I've gone for the same using the betfair £25 free bet; SA to beat Uruguay @3.3, which after betfair's commision (and the correct result!) will give ~£55 profit.

I was tempted by the rather unlikely result of a 3-3 draw, as the odds are 179:1 !!
It'd certainly be the most entertaining game thus far if that actually happened! (not least for pocketing £4500 of free cash LOL)
