Colombia’s Jackson Martinez 28/13 to continue scoring run against Uruguay this evening

Competition: World Cup
Market: Jackson Martinez to score anytime
Odds: 28/13 @ 888 Sport

With how impressive Colombia have been to top their group with maximum points to earn qualification into the next round, their striker Jackson Martinez is expected to play a big role in their last 16 meeting against South American rivals Uruguay this evening.

Martinez, who currently plays for Porto, scored a brace in his first World Cup start in the 4-1 thrashing of Japan recently, and is hoping to repeat the feat against Uruguay. Falcao’s absence hasn’t harmed the side at all in the World Cup, and 888 Sport are giving odds of 28/13 for Martinez to get himself on the score sheet at any time, given how impressive he’s been for his club in the last year – scoring 20 goals in 30 games.

Colombia have been a surprise package this summer. While they do have some individual talent, many are touting the South Americans to go far in the tournament, and they are favourites to beat the 2010 World Cup semi-finalists with the bookies. With an in-form Martinez spearheading the attack, they certainly have every chance to deliver.
