Netherlands Vs. Germany, Euro 2012: Lines, Odds And Picks

Stay connected with SB Nation

This is it for the Netherlands. If they lose here they might as well kiss their chances at the knockout stages goodbye, which isn't particularly good for a team with eyes on the trophy. Oh, and they have to do it against Germany, one of the title favorites. Cry, Holland, cry.

Lines: Germany, pick 'em (-130). Netherlands, pick 'em (+110).

Odds: Germany, +140. Netherlands, +180. Draw, +240.

Over/Under: Over 2.5, -105. Under 2.5, -115.

This one has Germany written all of it, but the question here is whether to take the -130 or the +140. Obviously the -130 is safer, but does anyone think that the Netherlands can handle Mesut Ozil. If you're not sure, go with the -130 because the idea of the Dutch getting through the impenetrable Mats Hummels is hilarious, but the +140 is tempting. Roll with that if you want the payout, which is worth the risk.

The over/under isn't worth betting. Rumors out of the Netherlands are that they are experimenting with Rafael van der Vaart in a double pivot and Dirk Kuyt at right back for this match. Will they actually do that? Won't they? Betting on the over/under with that much up in the air is foolish. If you must, over.
