First Goalscorer... Sweden:... 13/2 Zlatan IbrahimovicInteresting bet. Are those odds for the first goal in the game or the first goal for their team?

Agree Schumi. That was the one that stood out for me.

A nice bet if possible (in terms of returns) would be a Zlatan first goal and a Sweden win.

9/5 and 13/2 bring it on.

Match Odds: 5/4 Ireland, 11/5 Draw, 9/5 Sweden.

Crazy short odds on Ireland to win considering 1st game under new manager & Sweden qualified for the World Cup.

We're 8/5 with Bet365. A bit of a difference. Or you could just use Betfair and get over 9/5. :)

Not really that short Pete for a 2 horse race. We're at home and the excitement of a new manager means we'll play a bit better.

Its fair enough to make us favourites - I think we'll win anyway.

Certainly not, as I'm a sucker when it comes to backing Ireland purely for sentimental value, even more so when logically it makes no sense to back them.
The bet I referred to earlier just seems like a very good bet.

There is no way I shall be having a bet on the match tonight only for Staunton to cost me more money!
