International Friendly betting - Switzerland vs Costa Rica

Switzerland are favourites to beat Costa Rica tonight as they continue their preparations for this summer`s World up in South Africa with a friendly at the Stade de Tourbillon. The hosts are 3/5 (bet £50 to win £30 profit) to win the match, leaving Costa Rica as underdogs at 11/2 with Victor Chandler, with the draw at 14/5 with Bet365.

Both sides will want to improve on their recent form after losing their last two matches but Costa Rica can take heart from resilient performances against Argentina and, more recently, France. Switzerland, however, will be concerned by recent defeats to Norway and Uruguay and need to start putting things right this evening.

The bookmakers have made 1-0 and 2-0 to Switzerland the favourite scores for the game at 13/2, followed by 1-1 at 7/1, with Sky Bet best price at 8/1 on 2-1. A 0-0 draw is available at 11/1 and Costa Rica are 14/1 to come away with a surprise 1-0 win.

Switzerland are 29/20 with William Hill to lead tonight at both half-time and full-time and 7/2 with Ladbrokes to win the match after drawing at half-time. The bookmakers offer 5/1 that both halves are drawn and Victor Chandler are best price on both Costa Rica/Costa Rica and draw/Costa Rica, offering 12/1 and 14/1 respectively.

Switzerland go to this summer`s World Cup as huge outsiders and are as long as 250/1.
