Well chaps, on to Thierry Henry's favourite sport!
I'm sure we can find some money here, as Handball usually is a sport with only few low odds gubbings.
Group A: Croatia Russia Norway Ukraine playing in Graz
Group B: Denmark Iceland Austria Serbia playing in Linz
Group C: Germany Sweden Poland Slovenija playing in Innsbruck
Group D: France Spain Hungary Czech Republic playing in Wiener Neustadt
-------------------------------------------------
Favourites: France, Spain, Denmark, Croatia
Teams with good chances: Poland, Sweden
Teams with a possible outsider chance: Germany, Norway and perhaps Russia and Iceland, but it would be some kind of wonder.
Possible low odds gubbings: Austria (home advantage), Czech Republic (lots of czechs expected in Vienna and Burgenland Region, only 150 km from CZ)
Sweden and Germany preparing for the Olympics in London 2012 with young players and building up a team. Both stated their main aim isn't Euro 2010, it's London 2012. Russia a team still in decrease.
Scandinavian teams (Norway, Sweden, Denmark and I would put iceland into it) usually well organized and hard to break down.
Denmark - Austria Russia - Ukraine Spain - Czech Republic Germany - Poland Croatia - Norway France - Hungary Iceland - Serbia Sweden - Slovenija
--------------------------------------------------- My personal view:
Will concentrate on Germany, Spain and France games today.
Germany: expected lower odds for Poland as they're a team playing together for the last few years now (instead of the germans who are just building a team up). Poland only has two important missings (Grzegorz Tkaczyk, Damian Wleklak) but Bartlomiej Jaszka who replaces both on their position also is a decent player in german Bundesliga (Berlin).
Germany definately will miss Pascal Hens and Sebastian Prei
Germany started well, Poland 2 goals up and look better. If Poland continue wasting 7m it could get a tight game.
Should have waited on Spain game, Czechs with very good start.

Germany game no advertisement for Handball imo, strong goalkeeping, strong defensive work but both teams giving the ball away too easy, miss chances and a lot of fouls. Overs (which I was tempted, too, but thankfully left it) already doomed. 2 mins of good attacking play by Poland before HT were enough to go by 4 goals up.
Russia game (I don't watch) rather close, 2 goals up atm, as expected.
Denmark game closer than expected (3 goals up), Austria doing a good game but will lose.
yeah leefee, Spain already in :)HT Germany - Poland 8 - 12Germany game no advertisement for Handball imo, strong goalkeeping, strong defensive work but both teams giving the ball away too easy, miss chances and a lot of fouls. Overs (which I was temp

It's a pity that there's not that much interest in this on here and (except Germany game) not much liquidity unless there's some 1.03 available :(
thx leepee, you to later with tennis!already green on Germany game :)It's a pity that there's not that much interest in this on here and (except Germany game) not much liquidity unless there's some 1.03 available :(
Thanks a lot for Poland pick, easier than expected, greened out though but i don't think Germans got any chance. I will play some winnings on Serbia against Iceland, i think it will be a tight match so im Serbia at those odds, any opinions?

Germany game last 10 mins were exciting, fast paced, pretty open and Germany gone close 2 goals again. But less than 1 minute so it's game over.
But final 10 mins were what I wanna see!!!
chief wrong forum too, there's no 0-0 tonight ;)Germany game last 10 mins were exciting, fast paced, pretty open and Germany gone close 2 goals again. But less than 1 minute so it's game over.But final 10 mins were what I wanna see!!!
Sweden and Iceland all over their opponents, France seem to have a tough game, also Croatia.
I skipped my back of France and backed Croatia instead, just for the record above.

If only had a good stream....could have tried some on serbia draw...this teach me another lesson, never bet if you don't have a good stream. It was disgusting to click every 10 seconds to get delayed pictures.

yeah mate, that's the reason why I changed to Croatia game. German TV advertised France but shown Croatia. Spain game had a decent stream but didn't find good other.
EHF website had streams but you have to pay for and as some dude in bwin chat said it wa salso delayed.
France 29 - 29 Hungary, first big surprice. Whoever was on France hopefully layed off @1.03 or 1.04 but I never thought that could get in danger.
Iceland 29 - 29 Serbia with last second 7m missed for Iceland
Sweden were up 7 goals, now 25 - 25, final minute.
Result for me:
Back Poland won Back Spain won Back Croatia won
France surely would have cost me, but wasn't televised (thank feck!)

Czech Republic - France Slovenija - Germany Hungary - Spain Poland - Sweden
France should be on fire tonight against the czechs who had no chance vs. Spain except first 10 mins of the game. Odds too low for me to back.
Sweden proofed that they're the unpredictable team which I said they were. Poland showed good game vs. Germany, when they needed to step up 1 gear, they did. Close result last evening was because Poland took of speed and concentration final few mins. Also Poland with world class defense and goal keepers. Sweden will find it hard tonight to break them down. I will stay away from that game because if Sweden has a good day they can beat Poland by a couple.
Spain showed that they're one of the title favourites. Hungary surprisingly beaten France. Of course Hungary are no walk-over but I don't think that they will beat the second fav tonight. Lots of hungarian supporters expected to view the game, little advantage as Spain's game yesterday didn't have that much spanish support.
Slovenija, suprisingly good fight against the swedish last night, made 7 goals back and beaten them by 2. Slovenija playing the same system like Croatia without having that many world class players but proven that they can beat Sweden who won EC more often than any other team. Germany as stated yesterday are building up a team, young unexperienced players. Defensive work and goal keeping were good, but giving the ball away too often during attacking play. Slovenija has good chances to beat the germans, 50-50 game imo.
For me it will be a small lay of Germany and backing Spain.

wtf!!!i saw the score and was 35-37 with one minute left!!its IMPOSSIBLE IN HANDBALL TO SCORE 2 GOALS IN ONE MINUTE as u just have to pass the ball.. someone was watching the game? what happened please? thanks
yeah Iceland givin the ball away twice in front of goal, Austria counter, goal, and that's twice within a minute!
I unfortunately traded out for 0,- on draw :(

Good luck Ralucke, I think I'll lay Denmark. Teams who have strong support due their rather high population in Austria and short distance from places where the games are played seem to do good. Hungary, Austria, Slovenija, maybe the Serbs too.

France bettet against their handicaps, 99% sure B-)
Don't trust this game but what I've seen so far Spain looked the best.
Laying Germany against Sweden.
Later Poland and Hungary.

IF POLAND WINS TODAY (HE WILL DO IT EASY) SPAIN HAS 1% CHANCES TO BE IN SEMIFINALS.
France and Poland will be top group with 7 points and last match they play each other. A draw will make them both in the semis. But even if one of them loses (by a reasonable margin) they are both in the semis as Spain lost vs them.
Spain has already no motivation. But they are playing really bad in this second phase.
Money is comming still to lay spain.
BIG BIG BIG LAY SPAIN.
