See the qualiftying stages of the greatest sporting event on earth on Betfair Live Video.

This week Betfair Live Video shuns the comforts of hearth and home, packs its kit-bag and joins up for a week of international football.

And we're not the only ones. The world's top-players will be in action for their countries on Saturday in the next round of World Cup qualifiers. A number of Eurpoean footballing superpowers faces tricky away ties with France travelling to Transylvania to renew hostilities with Romania. The two sides drew 0-0 at Euro 2008 and ex-Chelsea striker Adrian Mutu is sure to be a constant threat to a creaking French defence.

Portugal have a tricky away tie against Sweden but the biggest prospect of an upset may be in Sofia where Bulgaria are [4.2] to beat Italy [2.1]. Despite the return of Marcello Lippi the Italians are still rebuilding in the aftermath of the Donadonni era and are not the force they were at the last World Cup. Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov has been scintillating for his national side of late and he will relish the opportunity to cause an upset against the World Champions. Euro 2008 winners Spain, meanwhile, have what should be a relatively painless trip to Estonia.

For those of you who fancy a late night, Live Video will be showing a number of South American sections qualifiers, with Argentina v Uruguay (04:00 a.m. Sunday) the pick of the action.

There's also the now regular supplies of Bundesliga basketball, Premier League snooker, domestic football from New Zealand and Tennis at the ATP Kremlin Cup in Moscow.
