Unexpected things always happen in sports, and this World Cup is no exception!
On the fifth day of the World Cup, Mexican goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa helped his team hold Brazil to a 0-0 draw by making a series of outstanding saves. The result leaves both teams with four points each in Group A. It was not surprising that Belgium beat Algeria, 2-1. A mistake from Igor Akinfeev proved costly for Russia, as they were held to a 1-1 draw in their opener against South Korea. Is there anyone who won some Gold Chips from these three matches?

Odds for Australia vs. Netherlands
Australia kept an undefeated record in their last three matches with the Netherlands. After their amazing performance against Spain, the Netherlands are considered to go into the match against Australia with maximum confidence. It's almost impossible for them to disappoint. Will the Netherlands break that routine and win?
Odds for Spain vs. Chile
As Spain takes on Chile, it will be a life-and-death struggle. The probability will be high of them losing, again. A similarly high-scoring game is in the cards, as Spain has no choice but to attack, and Chile knows no other way.
Odds for Cameroon vs. Croatia
The same thing happened to Croatia. They will need to defeat Cameroon to get the chance to go further in the World Cup. The absence of Samuel Eto'o Fils because of his knee injury will be a crushing blow to Cameroon. Croatia has a great chance to win, since Mario Mandzukic is back.
The battle rages on, so sharpen your eyes and place your bets right!
