Italy v New Zealand 2010 World Cup Picks Group F Odds: Mbombela Stadium and 40,929 screaming fans will see the 2006 World Cup odds Champions face New Zealand June 20th at 10:00 AM EST. The two teams tied their first time out and will be playing with a little more confidence in their second go-around. New Zealand is a huge underdog in the matchup according to Bodog.com sitting at +1400.

Italy: The Italians have most of their 2006 team back and have high hopes to be the first team to win back to back World Cups in fifty years. In their first match of group play, the Italians played to 1-1 draw with a very underrated and talented Paraguay squad. The team is led by 2006 head coach Marcello Lippi, who is considered to be one of the best coaches of all time. Soccer odds have the 5th ranked Italian advancing to the next round, no questions asked. The team is experienced, intelligent, and plays the best defense of any team in the World Cup.

New Zealand: The only reason the team is in the 2010 World Cup is to make the groups even. The team qualified by winning a playoff against Bahrain in the Oceania group, also considered far and away the weakest FIFA region. The team has already achieved more than anyone could have expected, by playing to a 1-1 draw with Slovakia. According to most World Cup predictions, New Zealand has a 0% chance of advancing to the next round. The team made their only World Cup appearance in 1982, losing all three of their matches and conceding a total of 12 goals.
