Switzerland best priced with Paddy Power. Turkey best priced again with Pinnacle.

[Mrs. Smith]

Switzerland - Turkey 2 @ 3.40
Alexander Frei is the best player of Switzerland, he got injured and will not be able to play in this tournament any more. Turkey is not bad team. They played horrible game against Ronaldo and co. Their coach Terim made mistake by putting team out and saying that most important thing is not to lose, what a mistake. I'm sure if they played the way they always do it would (could) have been better. Gokhan is injured for Turkey, so is Emre B., and acording to Turkish friends that is very good news.. They also say that there is going to be, probably, some surprise changes in the team, and that their coach, even they do not like him, is best when it comes to motivation. Turkey has stronger midfield than hosts, and more attacking power compared to the Swiss. speccially now when they lost Frei. Turkey's defence is the worst part of the team but Swiss is not extremely good up front. I just read team news and according to Turkey people their team will be:
Volkan, Hamit, Emre Asik, Servet, Hakan Balta, Gokdeniz, Aurelio, Tumer, Arda, Nihat, Tuncay,
when they saw this they were jumping out of happines. So I did the same thing Just hope I'll be doing it later on tonight as well

Seems you're covering the draw Komp, but not a good idea it seems...Terim seems to field an offensive line-up cos' draw is a bit risky for them (cos' only if Portugal lose, they might have a good chance to progress)...
Volkan Demirel
Hamit Altıntop - Servet Çetin - Emre Aşık - Hakan Balta
Gökdeniz Karadeniz - Mehmet Aurelio - Tümer Metin - Arda Turan- Tuncay Şanlı
Nihat Kahveci

Some new names to the first eleven; toough it seems a defensive 4-4-1 sure it will be 4-3-3 as the time goes by...Terim wants to win...I can't say it is good or bad idea to back Turkey (good odds, probably worths trying, but I prefer live betting instead) but I recommend not to take it, Turkey straight win is more reasable than +0.25..
If it ends draw, I'll eat my hand.. Just kidding...İf it ends draw it is not becase it is a good result for both teams it will probably be because of a late equalizer..( btw Draw might be a wanted result for Swish side..but not for The Turks)

Good Luck,

Turkey for me aswell tonight, better side in my opinion. As whats been said the Swiss have been hit by an injury to Frei and i thought they were very poor against the Czechs. Small dabble on Nihat grabbing the 1st goal as well, hes had a superb season with Villareal.

[kompressaur]

lol at El Nihil eating his hand thats conviction for you. I think the value has to lie with Turkey doesnt it? i will sit and have a thinkl of this. i might even take Turkey -minus a goal or something. Ive still got the Turkish team of the world cup 2002 in my head and i thinbk thats why i fancy the turks. Aye its gonna be tight and its gonna be Turkey

[El NihiL]

Lol
Well, meant "hat" but I don't know how my "hand" managed to write "hand"

Good Luck with TUrkey bet Komp...Hope we win it...Actually a mathc everythink can happen; And I can see some goals here, but "live betting" is better option for me..Don't have enough trust or let's say balls witout seeing them on play...

[Punter]

Turkey for me too, i thought they did well and gave Portugal a good game last time out, i think there's value in the win price.
I'm almost tempted with Emre first, last and anytime scorer @ 50/1, 50/1 and 14/1 V.C bet. That's a bit big isn't it? Will he or wont he play though with the mixed reports?

[milners]

I fancy the Swiss tonight, host nation and all that. Think they will deliver tonight but don't listen to me as i can't predict a thing in Euro 2008. Get me back to Scottish Football.

Emre Belezoğlu is injured and will not play; Check the starting eleven above
Btw: There is another Emre (Aşık) in the Turkish team, and he's central defender, and he is in the starting 11

[Martens]

Switzerland all the way

Price @2.2 excellent

we watched all teams, turkey, together with greece and austria weakest teams

no chance imo, swiss never forgot what they suffered three years ago...

ideal timing for revenge

Ah that explains it then El Nihil, just a single on the turks then

[kompressaur]

Holy hell this is a bit of a differance in opnion. Maybe the draw would be the best option for me. Nah as El Nihil says the draw aint good to man nor beast. I really don't know what to think of it all. Shopuld i keep my money in my pocket and just enjoy the game? Nope i need to get on something.

1 Under 10 Corners @ 10/11 4pts
2 Turkey @ 11/8 Draw no bet 5pts

[Cinny]

im with you komp anyway ive taken the turkey win at 2/1 in the local, few others in mine are waiting on turkey for their double with portugal, hopefully they deliver!

[Durden]

I agree with Marteens , Turkey is one of the worst team in tournament. But, I will take Turkey not to lose.
Only reason not to take switzerland is Turkey`s tenacious character, they win when they have to win.
