A critical Group A matchup between Uruguay and Russia will determine the group winner, though both teams have already qualified to play in the Round of 16. SCROLL DOWN FOR MORE
Uruguay was coming in at 9/5, Russia and the draw each at 2/1 odds.
Russia have lost each of their last four World Cup meetings with South American side.
Uruguay have won their last two World Cup matches against European sides (England and Italy), having failed to win any of their previous 15 against them (W0, D6 L9).
Russia have hit eight goals already in the tournament, while Uruguay averaged just under two goals a game in qualifying.
Nothing against Russia but they have capitalized against two bad teams at home and now face a tougher Uruguay team which have won their last five games. Prior to the World Cup wins, Russia lost their previous three games.
