England Left Back Against USA Odds On To Be Ashley Cole With Steven Warnock And Leighton Baines Back Up
Friday 26 February 2010 at 11:40
Wayne Bridge withdrew his availability for the World Cup 2010 on Thursday and that has led to speculation about who will go to the World Cup in his place. Ashley Cole is obviously England's first choice left back but he is injured at the moment and may still be unfit for the World Cup.
Steven Warnock Or Leighton Baines Could Step In Despite Inexperience
No surprise that Ashley Cole is an odds on favourite to start left back against USA, despite his injury he is just 2/5 with Bet365. Should Ashley Cole fail to prove his fitness before England v USA then it is likely to be Steven Warnock or Leighton Baines or step in, Warnock is 5/1 with Bet365 despite just 8 minutes England experience whilst Baines is 11/2 with Bet365 despite having only played for England Under 21s. Joleon Lescott last played left back for England against Russia and he is 8/1 with Bet365, well ahead of James Milnber who is 20/1 with Bet365. Visit the Bet365 website for odds on Gareth Barry, Matthew Upson or Nicky Shorey, Bet365 offer up to £200 in free bets to new customers.
England Still Fancied For Successful World Cup
Despite Wayne Bridge's withdrawal being deemed a blow to Fabio Capello by many, the England World Cup Odds remained unchanged, they are still 11/2 with SkyBet and Paddy Power. Spain are the favourites at 9/2 with Bet365 whilst Brazil are 5/1 with Bet365 and SkyBet.
