Odds and Preview - Brazil vs. Uruguay - FIFA Confederations Cup - June 26th, 2013

Brazil and Uruguay meet in the first semi-final match of the FIFA Confederations Cup at Estadio Mineirao in Belo Horizonte on June 26th, 2013.

Brazil are in great form at the moment and they earned their spot in the semi-final by finishing first in Group A ahead of Japan, Mexico and Italy. Uruguay finished second in Group B, behind Spain and ahead of Nigeria and Tahiti.

Brazil are the big favourites in the upcoming match. Neymar is playing well and he has scored in every match so far. Uruguay are the contenders in this game with the help of their three strikers Diego Forlan, Edison Cavani and Luis Suarez who are all in great shape.

The odds for the upcoming match in Belo Horizonte are as follows:

Brazil: 4/11
Draw: 7/2
Uruguay: 8/1

A $100 bet on Brazil could return $36 in profit if successful, while the same bet on Uruguay could return $800 in profit if Uruguay manages to surprise.

It is worth mentioning that Uruguay came 4th in the 2010 World Cup and followed that performance by winning the Copa America in 2011. Edison Cavani and Luis Suarez are two of the most sought after players in the upcoming summer transfer season.

Brazil seem to be playing better and better with each passing game. With the crowd behind their back, we could see a high flying Brazil team vs. their South American rivals.

What will it be on Wednesday, June 26th, Brazil or Uruguay?

The better team on Wednesday plays the winner of Spain vs. Italy.

This should be a great match!
