Online Odds: Bovada has Brazil at -105 and Germany at -115

Finally we’ve reached the semifinals. There are few surprises here as many predicted powerhouses Brazil and Germany to advance this far. Unfortunately, one of them must lose now, so who will it be?

There is one massive factor that will swing the decision from one side completely to the opposite side: Neymar.

Brazil’s attacking star Neymar went down with an apparent back injury late in their game against Colombia. Later, the team would report that he broke his third vertebrae, leaving him unable to participate for the remainder of the World Cup.

This loss is absolutely enormous and is the primary reason I (and many others) are now picking the Germans to advance to the World Cup Finals.

The sportsbooks online have the two teams even on goals, with slightly better odds given to Brazil (the implied underdog now).
