Link to the Show / Show NotesA much needed three points would be the result that all Irish players and fans will be praying for this Saturday against Italy, but Ireland's biggest
bookmaker put the Italians in the driving seat as the 11/8 favourites.The Republic of Ireland need a win from one of their remaining games to
guarantee that they finish second and go into the qualifying round, however they can still win the group if they win both of their final games and
the Italians only draw against
Cyprus in their last qualifying match.A spokesperson of the betting company said: "I’d love to see a repeat of the Ireland
Italy game in World Cup 94', as I’m sure every Irish fan would, although that does look unlikely. However, if Robbie comes up with the goods
and gets the last goal, no matter what the result is there’ll be a few punters with smiles on their faces."Paddy Power is betting at
16/1 that Ireland will win their group and 13/8 for Ireland to qualify for the World Cup Finals 2010.The Irish bookie is also offering a
money back special for this game, where, if Robbie Keane scores the last goal, Paddy Power will refund all losing 1st/last goalscorer, correct
score and scorecast singles on the match.In other betting surrounding the World Cup, the bookmaker is wagering at 10/1 that Sin-Bins will be
introduced in South Africa, where a player could find themselves put off the field for five minutes for faking an injury or diving.Click here to play
