Soccer Euro 2012 06/15 Premium Play: Sweden vs England

Euro2012 - Group D - England vs Sweden

The English coach Roy Hodgson will surely be faithful to his system today and with that, we can expect a passive England in today's game, with two close lines of 4 plays on defense and midfield, with some strong defensive play. They have been playing this way the whole time since Hodgson became their coach and this won't change today, especially with France winning their game today against Ukraine. With this result, it looks like a win over Ukraine next Tuesday will enough for England to qualify, in a game where Rooney will comeback to the lineup after a suspension and where England will then have more offensive options to play better football on the offensive end.

On the other side, Sweden doesn't offer any danger from the sides, they have Ibrahimovic on the center and England will focus their attention on him. On the English side, now that England lacks creativity on their midfield and with Carroll starting today, this tells us that England will play some serious direct football. Therefore, I wouldn't be surprised if this contest ends with a 0-0 draw, as both teams look to have "potential" to achieve such ugly feat tonight. So, I'll be taking the Under on this game.

Pick: 3 units (Single Dime Play) on Under 2.25 @ -122 / 1.82 on Pinnacle
