The Euro 2008 is well under way and many handicappers have increased their bankroll with a few Euro 2008 bets.  There have been many Euro 2008 odds favorites winning as well as several surprise teams getting their Euro 2008 victories.  On Saturday, June 14th a huge Euro 2008 odds matchup will take place between Sweden and Spain.  This Euro 2008 game will determine who will advance to the next round as both teams have 1 win and 3 points.  Spain started off the Euro 2008 tournament  in impressive fashion by beating Russia 4-1 in Innsbruck on Monday.  David Villa had a hat trick for Spain and became only the 7th player to do so in Euro Cup history.  Sweden joined Spain later that day when they defeated the reigning champions, Greece, by a score of 2-0 in Salzburg.  Zlatan Ibrohimovic and Petter Hansson notched goals for Sweden on route to the Euro 2008 win.

Tomorrow the target for both sides is going to be to build on their winning starts.  These two teams have a history together and they will need little introduction to each other.  They played one another in their Euro 2008 Cup quailifying games.  Each team claimed a home victory over the other so it will be interesting to see what develops on netrual terf.  Sweden beat Spain 2-0 early on in the campaign on October of 2006.  Spain gained their revenge with a 3-0 win at home in Santiago on November 17 of last year.  This match secured Spain’s qualification and also meant that they would finish 2 points above Sweden in Group F.  Currently the Euro 2008 odds at SportsBetting.com have Spain as -154 favorites heading into tomorrow’s match.

Overall Spain have gotten the better of the two countries in head to head meetings.  They were 2-1 winners back in the 1920 Olympic Games.  The matches ever since have produced 4 wins for Spain, 3 for Sweden and 4 draws.  Saturday’s action is going to prove to be very interesting as both teams will come in poised and hungry for the victory.  I think that they are fairly evenly matched, with a slight edge going to Spain in the goal scoring department.  Make sure you watch all the action.
