2 teams that have never won a World Cup title will meet in the final on Sunday in World Cup betting as Holland battles Spain in a game that can be watched on ABC television. This will be the inaugural appearance for Spain in the final, while Holland has been in the final 2 times in their history, losing in 1974 and in 1978. Spain is a -200 fave at the offshore sportsbook with the total at 2.
Spain managed to get past Germany 1-0 in the semifinals to reach the final while Holland outscored Uruguay 3-2 in the other semifinal. Spain is led by David Villa while Arjen Robben and Wesley Sneijder lead Holland. Sneijder and Villa are even for the World Cup goal scoring lead as each player has obtained 5 goals. The Netherlands is the higher scoring squad in the World Cup gambling as they’ve outscored their foes 12-5. Spain has performed more of a defensive game as they’ve outscored foes in the World Cup by a 7-2 margin.
Spain in fact lost their 1st game 1-0 to Switzerland in this year’s World Cup. Since that loss they’ve granted only one goal. David Villa has obtained 5 of their 7 goals and is even with Sneijder for the Golden Boot. Spain is packed with talent and it showed as they completely owned Germany in the semifinals. The midfield of Spain is just amazing with Xavi, Iniesta and Xabi Alonso. Goaltender Iker Casillas is one of the greatest goalies in the world, and the defense is rather good. And when Spain needs a goal they’ve got Villa upfront. There aren’t a lot of weaknesses on this Spanish squad plus they’re a worthy fave.
The Netherlands has been extraordinary in the World Cup odds and they’ve got the talent to match up with Spain except in goals. Holland has Robben and Sneidjer and they’ve got a excellent duo in Nigel de Jong and Mark van Bommel in the middle. Not to be neglected are Dirk Kuyt and Robin van Persie. The difficulty for Holland is that goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg isn’t in the class of Casillas. Spain is likely to have the advantage if the game boils down to which goalie makes a crucial save. Alternatively, Holland is the only squad in this year’s World Cup to not lose a single game.
This year will be a special one since neither of these countries has ever won the World Cup before. Either Holland or Spain will become the eighth nation to join the pretty brief list of countries that have won the World Cup. If Spain captures it, they will become the 1st squad in history to win the World Cup after losing their 1st game. Holland would be the 1st squad to win every game in the World Cup on the way to the title since Brazil in 1970, if they win it. The winner of this match will be making history for their nation one way or another.
