Tuesday:

Jordan vs Cyprus

Cyprus face a strong team in this one and I believe the best pick from this one is many goals.

Over 2.5 goals.

Scotland vs Faroe Islands

Scotland have been pritty weak recently, but they should have no trouble at all winning this game at home.

Scotland win.

Wednesday:

China vs Latvia

Latvia have been ok recently. Based on these two side's recent meetings I believe there will be many goals in this one.

Over 2.5 goals.

Russia vs Belgium

Russia have been very strong recently and I would expect them to be able to beat Belgium in this one at home.

Russia win.

Slovakia vs Bosnia and Herzegovina

Slovakia have a strong team and I expect this one against Bosnia and Herzegovina will end very close.

Under 2.5 goals.

Estonia vs Liechtenstein

Estonia have actually been pritty good in their recent games and I believe they will be able to beat Liechtenstein in this one.

Estonia win.

Argentina vs Brazil

This should be a close encounter between these two rivals and based on their previous meetings I expect many goals in this one.

Over 2.5 goals.

Serbia won 6-1 when these two met in a friendly back in 2008. I believe Bulgaria will struggle in this one at home as well.

South Africa are strong but the USA won 0-1 here when these two met in a friendly back in 2007.

Under 2.5 goals.

The last two meetings between these two have both ended in 1-1 draws. Should be another close one between these two.

Under 2.5 goals.

Draw.

Netherlands vs Turkey

Netherlands are strong and I believe they will be able to win this friendly with Turkey. But I expect few goals.
