2010 World Cup: Brazil Favored To Win Over Netherlands


It's Brazil vs Netherlands in the quarterfinals of the 2010 World Cup.

Needless to say, five-time World Cup champions Brazil are the definite favorites to beat Netherlands in the quarterfinals. Brazil has a very star-studded roster with the likes of Elano, Robinho, Kaka, Maicon, Dani Alves and Luis Fabiano all very capable and talented to bring home the World Cup to Brazil. In their round of 16 match against Chile, Brazil dominated with a score of 3-0. It may look likely that they will continue to dominate when they face Netherlands in the quarterfinals.

Of course, Netherlands are also a strong team. They topped their group in splendid fashion, walking away with 9 points. In fact, the Netherlands were only one of two teams to score a perfect 3-0 in the group stages. The other team was Argentina. Netherlands also showed a lot of spunk in the round of 16 by surpassing Slovakia 2-1. Netherlands are relying on their key players like Dirk Kuyt, Arjen Robben, Robin van Persie and Giovanni van Brockhorst to bring the win for the Netherlands.
