Online Odds: Bovada has Brazil -175 and Netherlands +145

While the Netherlands and Brazil have been top performers during this summer’s World Cup, both teams have sputtered out in the semifinals, falling to Argentina and Germany respectively.

Brazil was truly humiliated in their 7-1 loss against Germany earlier this week. Being the host country of this years tournament, they will be ready to play hard and redeem themselves.

On the other hand the Netherlands’ coach has publicly stated his ire for FIFA’s insistence on this 3rd place match being played. He has publicly opposed the idea of a 3rd place match for years and has already hinted at playing several younger backups in this final game. This could give Brazil quite an advantage heading in the match — especially with the likely return of Thiago Silva.

Look for a convincing Brazil win in this one.
