Betting on Rio: Brazil (-600) v. Nigeria

This is another one of those bets-- if your bookie is offering a money line, take it. Brazil has a much, much better team than Nigeria, and must win to have any chance of advancing to the quarterfinal round.

Nigeria proved they are not a joke on Saturday with an impressive 90-76 victory over Croatia. But this team is young and raw and just don't have enough to hang with players like Nene and Leandro Barbosa for four quarters.

Brazil will have the home crowd behind them, and will look to cruise to an easy victory.
