Greece will be fighting to repeat as champions in soccer betting tournament.

The Swedes aren’t a bad team either. They finished one game behind Group F winner, Spain, in the qualifying round. They are led by coach Lars Lagerback who, if anything, knows how to get his team ready for a match. He’s a master tactician and the Swedes will ultimately need him to set things up for them if they have any hopes of beating the defending champions.

Here are the BetUS online betting odds for this match.

Greece + ½ - 165 O 2 ½ + 165

Sweden - ½ + 145 U 2 ½ - 200

Greece O 1 ½ - 180

Sweden U 1 ½ + 160

This might be one of the toughest matches to find a good online wager since Euro 2008 started. There’s no reason to believe that the Greeks won’t win this match. There’s also no reason to believe that the Swedes won’t.

These teams are very evenly matched. The Greeks are the defending champions but they won’t sneak up on any team in Euro 2008 like they did in Euro 2004. Repeating in the European Championships is very difficult to do. A lot can change on a team in four years.

The Swedes have one of the best coaches in this tournament. He understands soccer as well as anybody. That could put this game into the Swedes favor.

I’ve gone through a number of different scenarios regarding this game and I keep coming back to the one wager that offers me the best odds - - that would be making a wager on Sweden to beat Greece by at least a goal.

The BetUS online wagering odds on Sweden to beat Greece is Sweden – ½ + 145. To me, this is the smartest Euro betting wager that BetUS is offering on this match. It makes the most sense and it’s the one I am going to bet.

I’ll be making an online wager on Sweden at – ½ goal + 145 to beat Greece.
