The Joker's bet of the day / The Joker / 18 June 2009 / Leave a Comment

A tip from the Joker to get your betting day under way....

Difficult to imagine this was anybody else's first thought when they woke up this morning, but, crikey, were the 1999 Brit Awards the very worst of the lot?

Steps, B*Witched, Billie Piper. All performed live. And, like the Bangles a decade earlier, Cleopatra embarrassed a nation they had absolutely nothing to do with.

Today, Egyptians everywhere are walking tall again after Monday's heroic defeat to Brazil. But they need a result against Italy. The pyramid formation with which Marcello Lippi won the World Cup might have been helpfully familiar, but that's not how the Italians roll these days. The world champions are conceding more goals than the stereotype suggests - at least one in six of their last eight games - while Egypt have scored in all of their last 10 matches.

Beware Signor Lippi, the Pharaohs are Comin' Atcha.

Recommendation: Back Both Teams to Score @ [1.73] in Egypt v Italy
