Costa Rica vs Greece Prediction & Betting Tips - World Cup
by in World Cup Predictions
By finishing on top of a seemingly impossible group (including Uruguay, Italy and England), the Costaricans achieved the most brilliant exploit in their history and go into their first ever match in the last 16 of a World Cup tournament with a ferocious desire to confirm the status they have earned since the start of the competition. Greece, on the other hand, were almost dead and buried after their first loss to the Colombians (3-0), but held out against Japan (0-0), before sneakily qualifying in the finals seconds through a penalty by Samaras, thus eliminating the Ivory Coast (2-1). After their miraculous revival, Fernando Santos' men will be relieved of some pressure against the technically superior but less experienced "Ticos". Which side will create another momentous moment in their nation's history by reaching the quarter-finals?

Costa Rica - Greece Key Points
- Costa Rica put Uruguay (3-1) and Italy (1-0) through hell before solidly confirming their first place by keeping a clean sheet against an English side with nothing to lose (0-0). An impressive record…
- The Greeks have only won a single match in this World Cup - in the final seconds against the Ivorians.
- Greece have lost 3 of their last 5 matches against South American nations, with just one victory.
- The "Ticos" are obviously unbeaten in this World Cup (W2, L1) and had the luxury of being able to rest some of their senior players against England.
