As the minutes quickly tick down until Brazil 2014 gets underway later this evening, Paddy Power roll out a very tempting offer for those yet to register an account. With the hosts set to face Croatia at 9pm in the tournament opener, our bookmaker mates are offering odds of 4/1 on Neymar to score any time as Big Phil Scolari’s side look to start their campaign with a victory:

Bearing in mind that regular odds for the Barcelona forward to notch is evens, this is clearly another great deal for those yet to sign up with Paddy. Click here to find out more.

To clarify, the Neymar enhanced odds special is limited to a £10 stake, is open to new Paddy Power customers only and subject to the terms and conditions specified.

Finally, of course, we should state that all these offers are only available to those aged 18 and over and are subject to Paddy Power’s terms and conditions. Also, if you’re going to bet, always gamble responsibly.

    Switzerland midfield. Which one would you rather have:

    a) Stocker
    b) Xhaka

    Switzerland Defense. Which one would you rather have:

    c) Schar
    d) Rodriguez

      Rodriguez is more secured of game time, will get attacking bonus points for his constant crosses. Schar is a bit more of a goal threat and probably more blocked shots as a CB but Djourou/Senderos could come in contention at some point. I'd prefer RR if you have that 0.5m

        Xhaka is the link between defence and attack so he should put a few through balls to Drmic/Shaqiri resulting in potential assists and attacking bonus points. Mehmedi might also play though so I'd go for Inler/Shaqiri depending on budget if you want a Swiss mid.

    Rate my Telegraph Team!

    Cesar
    Luiz Alves Marcelo Schar
    Oscar Di Maria Okazaki
    Neymar Drmic Gutierrez

    Neymar will be rotated to other top forward options through the group stages for their "easier" games, e.g. Sanchez, Suarez, Messi, Ronaldo, etc

    The other five(!) Brazil players will probably be switched after the first two Brazil games to other teams with more games left. Same with Di Maria after Arg's first two games.
