Olympic Games 08/01: Men's Soccer - Senegal vs United Arab Emirates

Olympic Games - Men's Soccer - Senegal vs United Arab Emirates

Senegal has been a very positive surprise on this competition, but I believe they will have a very tough game tonight. They are coming from a game against Uruguay, where they had to make a huge effort as they saw one of their players getting sent off with just 20 minutes of the game played. Senegal needs just a draw today to qualify for the quarter finals and so, I wouldn't be surprised if they struggle today against a very underrated UAE. 

UAE is coming from a 1-3 loss against Great Britain, but they played a good game and they shouldn't have lost by such a clear difference. They had also performed quite well against Uruguay, in another unfair loss. Now against a Senegalese team that played two very tough games in a row, I can see UAE with nothing to lose bringing a lot of trouble to Senegal. They have nothing to lose and with Senegal needing just a draw to qualify, I believe they will take this very quite lightly and so, UAE will surprise them with their attacking mindset. Therefore, I believe UAE has some value on this contest and so, I'll take them on the spread today.

Pick: 3 units (Single Dime Play) on United Arab Emirates (+1) @ -114 / 1.877 on Pinnacle
