VPS Vaasa

Injured: Antonio Inutile, Valtter Laaksonen, Jan Berg, Brian Pope and Joachim Tuuri

MyPa

Preview: MyPa are in a good run, making it 4 wins out of 4 in all competitions. The team is a bit in a hectic schedule, as the coming Thursday they will have another important fixture - an what seems to be an easy match against Santa Julia for the European League. VPS Vaasa are playing relatively well at home and despite of the injured strikers Laaksonen and Inutile, Jussi Aalto managed to step in cover for them. Given the tiredness of the away team, VPS should be capable to take all from this match.

HJK Helsinki

Injured: Pyry Kärkkäinen and Mathias Lindström 

Doubtful: Jarno Parikka

Tampere United

Injured: Toni Järvinen, Antti Pohja, Jari Nikkilä and Aapo Lappalainen 

Doubtful: Henri Myntti, Kristian Kojola and Mikko Kavén

Preview: HJK will have a hell of an important game just in 4 days, so they will not bother much in the coming encounter. Despite the team from the Finnish capital has almost full squad available, the chances that some the first team regulars get a rest (either on or off the pitch) are high. Tampere is the team in form in the Veikkausliiga currently, and they could welcome back the regular keeper Kaven. The speed of Kangaskolkka and Petrescu will suit very well the counter-attacks of Tampere, so much value on the away win here.

Argentina

Injured & Suspended: None

Mexico

Doubtful: Vela

Preview: This will be the first real test for Diego Maradona's Argentina. He had an easy path to the 1/8 finals with the only real test in the first match against Nigeria. Now it will be a different story, as in front there will be the organized Mexicans. The Central American team has some issues scoring, and it is very probable that Blanco will replace Franco at the top. Mexico will need to move fast in defense in order to cover Higuain, Tevez and Messi. But their defense is not an issue so far at this World Cup. The match should be surprisingly close and Argentina could win to nill, but we do not see them scoring more than two goals.

Tip: Under 2.5

For that game the bookies set France as favorite . However Infobettor believes that they are thinking wrong and their odds are set as millions unprofessional punters are joining the betting industry when such big forum as the World Cup is running. The value here is definitely on the Uruguay team as France have a lot of problems. The first and most important one is called team play. They were helpless in the friendless (last one they lost with 1-0 against China). The Blues are lacking leaders who can motivate them. Infobettor sees Ribery as their only hope. Bayern Munchen wing was most time injured and didn't play during the season but that actually is positive fact  as he will have some extra saved energy and determination. Uruguay have good attack in face of Suarez and Forlan. But Atletico striker had a long campaign with 56 games played which is just too many. He was not in best condition during the camp so don't expect miracles from him. As Uruguay like to play defensively and France have problems scoring our sure bet here is....

Jaro

Suspended:

Injured: Jani Bäckman, Papa Niang, Markus Kronholm and Sebastian Mannström

JJK

Suspended:

Injured: Markkula

Preview: Except Kronholm none of the missing players has featured regularly for Jaro, while JJK should be with almost full squad. JJK started the season brightly, but are now starting to drop down in the standings, winning a single point in the last 4 matches. Not taking into account the HJK match, Jaro were without a loss for 4 matches in a row. Now at home turf they will be eager to outplay the away team. Jaro are by far the more technical team and under normal conditions should be the favourites for a win. A handicap could also be tried on the match.

KuPS
Suspended: Olajide Williams
Doubtful: Miikka Turunen
TPS
Suspended:
Injured: Lomski
Preview: TPS is the only unbeaten team in the Veikkausliiga for this season. The team takes pride of one of the best defenses and a good class goalkeeper, but it was exactly them that let down in the last couple of matches. Lehtovaara should take the blame for at least 2 of the last 4 goals. Nevertheless, these players remain good class for the Finnish standards and a 3rd poor match in a row will become too much. There is real firepower at TPS - especially in the face of Jonathan "Tintin" Johansson.

Haka

Suspended:

Injured: Joenmaki

MyPa

Suspended:

Injured: Tuomas Aho, Timoska and Jarno Tuunainen

Preview: MyPa have major defensive issues in the beginning of this season. The team has let in 11 goals in 6 matches, and just in order to make the situation more complicated, Tuomas Aho has picked up an injury. Janne Lindberg will have difficulties in selecting his starting squad, as he has to neutralize on of the better Veikkausliiga strikers - Nam Ik Kyoung. He is master of the free kicks, and he will certainly gets his chances here.

Bayern Munchen

Suspended: Ribery

Inter

Suspended: Motta

Preview

More than 10 pages could be written about this encounter but Infobettor again will focus only on the betting side of this game.  Be sure that this match is mainly a duel between the coaching and motivation skills of Mourinho and Van Gaal as in terms of quality the two teams are equal. It is not coincidence that one month ago Gaal told his preference for playing with Inter in the final. He feel that he could outplay his student Mourinho and actually we trust him. The absence of Ribery is not so much important as for the most of the season, Germans were playing without him. Robben will be on the field and that is very important. Don't think that only because Italians stopped Messi they could do the same with the Dutchman wing. Robben is different player and most of all he has the experience that Messi was lacking. The biggest problems in the German squad are the slow central defenders but their speed could be just enough to oppose Milito and Eto'o. And most of all the Germans look more fresh in the end of the season so our bet will be...

Recommendation: Bayern Munchen in the regular time

Valencia

Injured: Dealbert, Bruno

Tenerife

Suspended: Ayoze, Bertran

Preview

The calculation shows that Tenerife have even chance for survival only if they win or make a draw(if all other three contestants loose). But the win of Racing seems very sure so the islanders need the three points. So the big question is Valencia let that to happen. Yes they are not playing for anything but we doubt that Emery will let to be defeated on the last day of the campaign in front of their fans. More that could be the last match for Villa, Mata and Silva - so they will need to have one good farewell. Of course these transfers are only speculations but in every rumor there is some truth. Valencia relegated last week Xerez and we don't see a reason not to do it with Tenerife today as they are not a charity organization.

Beroe

Suspended: Andonov

Slavia

Injured: Alberoni, Diakov

Suspended: N. Petrov

Unvailable: Mboli, Popara

Preview

On first glance Slavia have more problems with missing players but situation is a little bit different. Although Beroe won the Cup of Bulgaria, the team's atmosphere is very bad. The players and the coaches haven't received their salaries from four months and they have threatened not to play in that game. The were furious with the official declaration of the board which claimed that everything is fine in the club. So not big motivation at the hosts. Slavia is a class team and have the source to take the victory if Vutsov choose his regulars in the starting 11.
