Germany v Argentina

The eyes of the world will be on the Maracana this Sunday evening as the final protagonists of the World Cup, Germany and Argentina meet to see who will win the greatest prize in football. This is the third World Cup Final featuring the teams and the score is one each.

Following the destruction of host nation Brazil in the semi-finals, it’s no surprise to see that the Germans are favourites to lift the famous trophy and they are quoted at 13/10 to win after 90 minutes whereas you can get Argentina at 23/10. If you cannot decide and think this will be a draw, the price on offer here is 21/10.

Thomas Muller has had a fantastic tournament and one more goal from him will bring him level for the Golden Boot award with Colombia’s James Rodriguez. For Muller to score at any time, the price on offer is 2/1 or if you fancy him to repeat his first goal antics as he has done already this tournament, the price is 6/1.

Messi has been Argentina’s top scorer and for him to score at any time, the price is 11/8. If you think he’ll open the scoring the odds are 5/1. The best of the rest in terms of value in the first scorer market look like Toni Kroos at 12/1 or how about Ezequiel Lavezzi at 10/1?

The win-casts are always popular with punters and some on offer here include Messi to score and Argentina to win at 3/1 and Muller to do likewise and Germany to win is 10/3. Mats Hummels has popped up with some vital goals and for him to score and Germany to win, you can get a generous looking 14/1.
