These upcoming international friendlies are never ones to risk a lot of money on.
Some turn into a glorified work-out and Brazil's clash with Republic of Ireland at Arsenal's Emirates Stadium in London, yes work that one out, looks certain to fit into this category.
Brazil boss Dunga says he will make a number of substitutions and his first aim is to avoid picking up any injuries or unnecessary fatigue.
This hardly sounds like the precursor to an attractive spectacle, even if ITV are rating the fixture highly enough to put it on ITV1 on Tuesday night primetime.
The struggle to sell tickets has seen ads popping up all over the place and it makes you wonder just what is in store for those who do turn up or tune in.
Brazil should win, even allowing for how lightly they'll take the match, but there are far better 1/2 (with Betfred) shots around.
Ireland, a best-priced 7/1, are likely to give it a go and Robbie Keane will give them a boost if he's fit enough to play.
If you think they'll be up for this and take out some of their frustration still simmering from the Paris debacle, then the only bet worth recommending is buying bookings at 20 with Sporting Index.
Of course, referees are sometimes more lenient in friendlies and this is the sort of market that could easily finish on '0'.
But if you fancy Giovanni Trapattoni's team to treat this prestigious friendly with the respect it deserves, then it may be worth a small investment.
Alternatively, Ireland team bookings is buyable at 11 which is worth a look if you think they'll get stuck in.
