Is there any chance I could change my first selection?
After reading the world cup news I think Qatar will win the first match
via a dubious late penalty...

The current picks / scoring tables have been added to the opening post, and will be updated there on a regular basis.

Match 1. Qatar odds have been cut for 9/4 to 21/10 only by 0.15 but this means people must have been reading the papers this morning, current forum picks over 50% for Ecuador, a third are looking for a draw with 5 putting their faith in the home nation.
Bet, £1 Ecuador and Under 2.5 Goals in match @10/3

Match 2 Just 1 pick for both the draw and Iran give England over 95% of the forum picks. This makes the current odds of @1/3 for England look very generous though Iran have moved in 1 point in the betting to @10/1.
Bet, £1 Free bet builder. @13/1
Full Time Result - England
Under/Over 2.5 Goals - Over 2.5 Goals
To Score in 90mins - Harry Kane
Home Player Shots On Target - Harry Kane 3+ Shots On Target
Both Teams To Score - No
Total Over Corners Taken - 8+ corners

Match 3 Slight market movement as the draw shortens a little as Senegal drift. 83% if the forum picks are for the Netherlands
Bet, £1 Netherlands to win, Netherlands most shots on target in each half and Senegal most booking points @15/8

Match 4 Forum picks are split with half going for the draw and a quarter opting for either USA of Wales. USA are favourites in the betting with Wales drifting 0.1 in the market.
Bet, £1 Ramsey to score or assist, Bale to take 2+ shots on target, each team 4+ corners and each team 10+ booking pts @20/1

Day 3 Preview.

Match 5 Just 2 have opted for the draw with nobody fancying an upset and being tempted by those odds of 20/1
bet, £1 Argentina to score 3+ goals, 6+ Argentina corners and 20+ Saudi Arabia booking pts @9/2

Match 6 86% for Denmark with the remaining opting for a draw, no backing for Tunisia.
Bet, £1 Denmark to win and Denmark most corners in each half @13/8

Match 7 The bookmakers don't have much between these, forum guesses have Poland lagging behind the South Americans, could be a tight game.
Bet, £1 BTTS, each team 1+ corners in each half and each team 10+ booking pts @7/2

Match 8 Again very one sided in the betting but this could be much closer than the betting lines suggest.
Bet, £1 Correct Score France 1 Australia 0 @11/2

To Quote Glenalg:

Great piece of advice I was once given.....When the world around you is full of wnakers it's usually you that's the wnaker

coo1-um

4 Games in and 10 players have a perfect score.

coo1-um

Everybody fails in Match 5 and miss out on both a point and 20 Tie Break points, as Saudi Arabia stun Argentina,

coo1-um

Match 9 Croatia should have enough to morocco and having performed so well at the last world cup know what is required. and 3 quarters of predictions show this.
Bet £1 Croatia to win @11/10

Match 10 Germany currently showing in the betting at 4/9, with Japan out at 6/1, Japan have no chance here, more chance than Saudi Arabia beating Argentina though according to the bookmakers.
Bet £1 Germany to win, over 2.5 goals, 6+ Germany corners and 20+ Japan booking pts
@4/1

Match 11 Spain should have more than enough to beat Costa Rica but as we now know nothing as guaranteed.
Bet £1, Alvaro Morata to score first @5/1

Match 12 Belgium have much more experience than their Canadian opposition who again are given no change by the Forum Picks.
Bet** £1 De Bruyne to assist 1+ goals, Tielemans 1+ shots on target, 7+ Belgium corners and 20+ Canada booking pts @18/1

** Bet of Round 1A
