Uruguay v Ghana

Uruguay continue to charge forward in this World Cup and if you had told them before the tournament started that they would be playing Ghana in the World Cup Quarter Final they would have bitten your hand off for that draw.

Ghana are no longer a team that can be underestimated, they have a very tight defence and will be very tough to beat.

Uruguay v Ghana Match Odds

Match betting is a massively popular market and the first market most punters choose to look at as your decision in this market is likely to impact all other bets you place on the game.

BACK URUGUAY TO BEAT GHANA

Uruguay have impressed many so far this World Cup with their efficient play and great striking power and with Diego Forlan and Luis Suarez up front they have strikers who can match almost any team in the world. These players are likely to be too much for Ghana, who have done brilliantly to get this far but their luck may have run out and their great journey is set to end.

Uruguay v Ghana Asian Handicap Odds

The Asian Handicap is an interesting bet as it usually gives one team a lead that should be enough to cancel out any superiority the favourites for the game have.

BACK URUGUAY -0.25

This is effectively a bet on Uruguay to win the match so if Uruguay are better odds -0.25 in the asian handicap then back them here, otherwise back them in the match odds simply to win the game.

BACK URUGUAY 1-0 AND UNDER 2.5 GOALS

Uruguay have so far only conceded one goalin their four games and Ghana have only conceded three goals so with both teams defending well it seems unlikely there will be too many goals, it seems unlikely there will be over 2.5 goals to be exact.

Uruguay should be well capable of winning this match, they are the better team, and with Ghana not exactly looking to have many goals in them Uruguay should be able to win with a clean sheet. Therefore it is just a question of how many Uruguay score to get the correct score, Ghana are yet to concede two in a match so 1-0 to Uruguay currently makes massive appeal.

Uruguay v Ghana Player Odds

Some of the most fun markets to bet on are the player markets, such as first goalscorer and anytime goalscorer. They are usually relatively big odds and can give plenty of reward if you pick correctly.

Uruguay v Ghana Team News

Uruguay will continue with Diego Forlan and Luis Suarez up front and will be hoping neither has a alte injury scare. Ghana have relied upon the goals of Asamoah Gyan so far and another important player for them is Kevin Prince Boateng, both will need to be fit to give Ghana their best chance.

BACK LUIS SUAREZ TO SCORE FIRST AGAINST GHANA

Luis Suarez has now scored more goals than Diego Forlan at the World Cup and he has also scored in more games, which means that it is Suarez who gets the nod in a two horse race. Very few players can really be considered so it might even be worth backing both Suarez and Forlan to score first, with only one goal likely in the match, but if picking just one go for Suarez.

Uruguay v Ghana Half Time Odds

The latest tips that include the half time result in them, some of the most popular bets here are half time result and half time/full time.

BACK DRAW / URUGUAY IN THE HALF TIME / FULL TIME BETTING

This bet really should hinge on whether Uruguay score their goal in the first half or the second half, Uruguay have a good record of scoring in the first half but Ghana have so far only conceded one goal in the first half at the World Cup and they will look to be more defensive than ever against Uruguay so back a draw at half time with Uruguay triumphing by full time.

Uruguay v Ghana Best Bet

BACK URUGUAY 1-0

Uruguay will probably win this game and if they do there appears to be a massive chance that the score will be 1-0. Both teams' form backs this up with very few goals conceded and realtively few goals scored but with Uruguay having the edge Uruguay 1-0 is confidently given out as the best bet of this game.
