The 2010 World Cup is down to just eight teams, and here at Cappers Info, we are taking a look at the four matches at hand on Friday and Saturday and picking winners to advance through each of the World Cup betting battles.
Uruguay vs. Ghana: Needless to say, this is the least sexy of all of the quarterfinal duels, as one of these teams is going to be a shocking entrant into the final four in South Africa. Ghana can become the first African team ever to advance to the semifinals with a win on Friday, but Uruguay is going to stand in its way. The Black Stars put forth their best effort in a 2-1 win over the United States in extra time that saw both Kevin Prince Boateng and Asamoah Gyan hit the back of the net. However, we are much more in favor of the Uruguayan duo of Luis Suarez and Diego Forlan. Forlan might be the most feared striker on the counterattack in the world at this point, and Suarez is coming off of a two goal performance against the South Koreans in a 2-1 win to reach this point.

Holland vs. Brazil: The Netherlands has arguably been the most impressive team in this World Cup to date, as it has come forth with four huge victorious efforts in regulation. La Oranje has only conceded two goals in those four matches, with the last of the goals coming via a very questionable and incredibly inconsequential penalty kick for the Slovakians in the 90th minute of their Round of 16 duel last week. This is a totally different task at hand though, as Brazil is clearly one of the best sides in this tournament. The five time champs took out Chile in a dominating 3-0 performance earlier this week to reach this point. The yellow and green knocked Holland out of this tournament both in 1994 and 1998 in the knockout rounds, and this year will be absolutely no exception.

Argentina vs. Germany: This is most likely going to be the most entertaining of the quarterfinal matches. These two teams have combined to score 19 goals in this tournament, easily making them the highest and second highest scoring teams in the World Cup. Both are coming off of impressive victories. Argentina knocked off Mexico for the second straight tournament in the Round of 16 with a 3-1 triumph, while Germany pulled off the modest upset in resounding fashion over England 4-1 over the weekend as well. Goals should be aplenty in this one, especially if Lionel Messi can finally get on the score sheet for the Argentines for the first time in his World Cup career. However, it is going to be Germany that gets through, quite possibly with an extra 30 minutes of action, as the German attack just looks more fluent right now than any other unit in the world.

Paraguay vs. Spain: South American teams have had tremendous success in this tournament, but all of that is probably coming to a close for Paraguay on Saturday. The Paraguayans advanced to their first quarterfinal in World Cup history with a 5-3 penalty shootout win over Japan, but they still have yet to score a goal in four lifetime tries in the knockout rounds. That just isn't going to cut it against the Spanish. La Roja found the back of the net after roughly an hour against Portugal, arguably the toughest defensive side in the world. It was David Villa's fourth strike of the World Cup. He is the prime candidate for the Golden Boot honors, and odds have it, if he can light up the scoreboard once again for his home country, Spain will be heading into the final four here in South Africa.
