Beckham back?
TWO GOAL HERO COLE 3/1 TO BE ENGLAND TOP SCORER
WILLIAM HILL make Joe Cole 3/1 joint favourite along with Jermain Defoe to top score during England’s World Cup qualifying campaign following his two goals against Andorra.
Hills also offer 10/3 Rooney; 8/1 Lampard; Owen; 10 Gerard; Heskey; 12 Walcott; 20 Beckham; Barry (Others on request).
MICHAEL OWEN is 7/4 with Hills to start in England’s third qualifier against Kazakhstan, 2/5 not to.
ENGLAND are 9/5 to beat Croatia in their next game with Hills, who make Slaven Bilic’s side 11/8 favourites with the draw at 15/8.
DAVID BECKHAM is 5/6 with Hills to start against Croatia in midweek and 5/6 not to. David Bentley is 11/8 to start v Croatia, 8/15 not to.
England are 7/2 to remain undefeated in all their qualifying games with Hills who offer 1/ 4 that they will qualify for the final stages, 11/4 that they will not; 10/11 that they win their qualifying Group and 12/1 that they win the World Cup. Are they having a laugh? I would have thought that Croatia would have been odds on favourite to win the group but can bet had at 6/4 to top the group at Stan James.
HOW MANY POINTS will England get in qualifying:
9 or less 125/1
10-14 80/1
15-19 11/2
20-24 8/11
25-29 11/8
30 22/1
BURLEY ODDS ON FOR SCOTLAND BOOT
GEORGE BURLEY is 8/15 with William Hill NOT to be Scotland manager when the World Cup finals get underway. Hills offer 11/8 that he will survive. ‘Scotland’s poor start to their qualifying campaign has put Burley’s long term future in jeopardy’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
SCOTLAND are now 5/2 to qualify for the final stages of the World Cup with Hills who offer 2/7 that they will fail to do so. They are 6/5 to win in Iceland, where the home side are 9/5 and the draw 11/5.
WALES are now 8/1 to qualify for the final stages of the World Cup with Hills who make them 1/20 not to.
Northern Ireland are 7/1 to qualify, 1/16 not to and Republic of Ireland are 11/4 to make it through, 1/4 not to.
LATEST WORLD CUP ODDS….5/1 Argentina; Brazil; 13/2 Spain; 10 Italy; Germany; 11 Holland; 12 England; 18 France; Portugal; 25 Russia; 28 Ivory Coast; 40 Croatia; 50 Cameroon.
