Last updated: 19th June 2008
Turkey: Can they do it again?
Turkey made hard work of qualifying to the quarter final stages, having trailed in all three of their group matches but still managed to win two of them and Sky Bet are offering 10/1 for them to come from behind and win Friday's last-eight clash with Croatia.
Turkey, who are still looking for their first ever victory over their opponents are 11/1 to score in the opening ten minutes, 11/4 to keep a clean sheet and 14/1 to score two or more goals in the first half.
Sky Bet are offering 9/2 for the match to go to a penalty shoot-out, with Turkey 8/1 to win on penalties (also 8/1 for Croatia) and Croatia are 9/1 to win in extra time (11/1 Turkey).
Croatia, who were unbeaten in the group stages, are 4/9 with Sky Bet to qualify and 10/11 to win in 90 minutes (4/1 Turkey to win in 90 minutes).
A League apart
Sky Bet are offering a wealth of markets ahead of reigning Super League champions Leeds Rhinos' clash with arch rivals St Helens at Headingley on Friday.
Leeds' Scott Donald is 6/5 favourite with Sky Bet to score more tries in the match than Saints' Ade Gardner (13/8), with the tie quoted at 13/5.
Having scored 18 tries so far this season, Gardner is Sky Bet's even-money favourite to take top tryscoring honours, with Donald, who boasts a current tally of 17, second favourite at 11/8.
Bryn Hargreaves scored a hat-trick of tries last weekend and is 80/1 to repeat the feat against last year's Grand Final champions.
Leeds are 100/30 to go on to lift both the Challenge Cup and Grand Final trophies, with Saints priced at 9/2 for the double.
Action replay?
Ferrari have won seven of the past 10 French Grand Prix and Sky Bet are offering 15/8 for a repeat of last year's emphatic victory with Kimi Raikkonen leading team mate Felipe Massa home in a second successive one-two.
Ferrari are just 1/4 to take the chequered flag this weekend, with Raikkonen 11/10 to return to winning ways at Magny-Cours after drawing a blank in his last two races.
World Championship leader, Robert Kubica, is 7/1 to follow up his maiden victory.
Lewis Hamilton starts the race with a 10-place grid demotion and is 7/1 to overcome the penalty and win the race and 5/1 to beat both Ferrari drivers.
