Russia Euro 2008 Odds

Russia were the first ever winners of the European Championships in 1960, when playing as the USSR and went on to make three further unsuccessful appearances in the final up until 1988. Since then, they have been regular qualifiers but have failed to make it past the group stages. The Russians will go in to Euro2008 full of confidence with Guus Hiddink in charge, a Coach who has an excellent record at helping teams to progress through to the later stages in major tournaments. However, despite such optimism, their chances of winning do appear somewhat limited in tough Group D.

Key Player
Lokomotiv Moscow striker Dmitriy Sychev has a good goalscoring record at international level and will pose a threat to any opponents defence.
