A pair of morning games that might not otherwise draw a whole lot of attention from Gambling911.com readers could prove especially important, at least one of the games: Slovenia vs. Algeria.
Neither Algeria nor Slovenia has ever progressed to the knockout stages, and few observers give them much chance of finishing ahead of England and the USA for the two qualifying places, the BBC reports. However, should either team win Sunday's matchup, they will suddenly find themselves leading in a group that includes the USA and England. Those two teams concluded their much ballyhooed matchup in a draw on Saturday.
The betting action on Slovenia and Algeria is relatively balanced with favored Slovenia getting 65 percent of the betting action at Sportsbook.com.
Slovenia would pay out US$11.50 for every US$10.00 bet while Algeria would pay out US$25. The draw certainly has value here considering how half the matches so far in the 2010 World Cup have ended up. The payout would be US$20 for every US$10 bet.
Elsewhere, Ghana was the +270 underdog vs. Serbia at near even odds. The draw would payout slightly better than 2/1 odds.
