Brazil vs. Switzerland Bet Builder Tips: 5/1 Shots Double Appeals in Bet Builder
There really is nothing quite like watching Brazil strut their stuff in that iconic yellow jersey at a World Cup. The six time champions started with a hard fought but impressive Richarlison-inspired win against Serbia, but in our bet builder we are looking to a couple of other Seleção Canarinho stars to clear their shot lines against Switzerland on Monday night...
Brazil and Switzerland come into this game in good form having both won their first game at the World Cup. The Swiss were workmanlike in defeating Cameroon and certainly rode their luck, exemplified by the fact their goalkeeper Sommer won the man of the match award. Brazil on the other hand were slow in the first half but swashbuckling in the second, overpowering Serbia 2-0 in the end thanks to a Richarlison brace.
The bookies have Brazil best priced 8/15 to make it two wins from two, while the draw is around 3/1 with a Swiss victory all the way out at 13/2. For this bet, however, we will be avoiding the outright odds and delving into Unibet's Bet Builder feature for two player props punts that combine for a tasty looking 5/1 double.
Brazil vs. Switzerland Tips:
Real Madrid's Champions League final hero Vinicius JR was one of the few names almost nailed on for Brazil's team-sheet, with the winger now finally fulfilling his promise as one of the most exciting talents in the game. For a few seasons he has been terrorising defences with tricky wing play but more recently he has added goals to his game and with goals of course comes more shots.
Vinicius let off a game high four shots in game 1 against Serbia, a match in which he terrorised his opposition full back and always looked a threat. He is often hitting 3+ for Real Madrid nowadays and his price of 13/10 for over 2.5 with Unibet is definitely worth taking both as a single and in bet builders.
The second and last leg of our bet builder for the game comes in the same market of shots, and the player we are backing to unleash a couple or more is new Man United man Casemiro. Renowned as one of the greatest midfield destroyers of his generation, Premier League viewers and United fans alike have been surprised at the guile and adventurousness of the Real Madrid icon since his move to Old Trafford.
He has played some wonderful passes for his new club since becoming a main stay as the anchor of the midfield, but has also been getting forward much more than he ever did for Los Blancos.
Casemiro has seemingly brought his new found lust for goals to the national team and in their opener with Serbia let fly three times, with one being on target.
He clearly feels he has a license to get into goalscoring positions and with Brazil expected to dominate possession against the stubborn Serbians, Casemiro's price of 33/20 to have over 1.5 shots looks value.
The bet builder pays a fraction over 5/1 with Unibet, but is just 2.27/1 with Paddy Power and Betfair. That's over double the price and we think this is a cracking punt for Monday's fixture.
