Ronaldo, who has scored 22 goals in 72 appearance for his country will captain Portugal against Ivory Coast and SkyBet have been forced to cut the former World Player of the Year’s odds of outscoring his team-mates from 6/4 to 11/8. Sky Bet’s football betting spokesman Tim Reynolds told Bettingpro: "Ronaldo scored a total of 26 goals from 29 appearances last season for Real Madrid so it’s not surprising to see our customers backing the Portuguese star to be their leading goalscorer. "We’ve seen 5-times as many bets on Ronaldo than any other Portugal player so we’ll be hoping that the 25-year-old fails to make the scoresheet." Ronaldo is 25/1 with SkyBet to be the top scorer at the World Cup Read our SkyBet review Get a £10 free bet (no deposit) plus £50 free (cash match) at Skybet Like Like Post to wall 634 Reads All World Cup 2014 News Recent World Cup 2014 Articles Sky Bet make Fernando Torres 13/2 to Score Last in World Cup 2010 Final11 Jul 2010Liverpool striker is top price to score final goal of Sunday’s game David Villa to score in Spain World Cup win 5/2 at Paddy Power11 Jul 2010Irish firm running special on Spanish striker Psychic Octopus World Cup final prediction sparks gamble on Spain11 Jul 2010Paul’s pick being supported by punters at Sky Bet Mark Van Bommel odds on to be booked in 2010 World Cup final11 Jul 2010Huge gamble on Dutch midfielder being shown a card against Spain Spain now even money at Bet365 to win World Cup 2010 final11 Jul 2010Vicente Del Bosque’s side backed to triumph in normal time Ladbrokes bookmakers World Cup 2010 final betting – Holland World Cup odds11 Jul 2010Holland are 6/4 to win the 2010 World Cup More Stories Recent Articles League Two Play-off Final First Goalscorer Cashback at Boylesports27 May 2012Boylesports are continuing their popular First Goalscorer cashback promotion on Sunday's League Two League Two Play-off Final Cashback at Coral27 May 2012Coral bookmakers are running cashback specials on Sunday’s League Two Play-off Final between Chelte 17:30 Celebration Standard Open NH Flat Race27 May 201217:30 Celebration Standard Open NH Flat Race 17:20 Kilsaran International Maiden27 May 201217:20 Kilsaran International Maiden 17:10 Aylsham Show - 27th August Bank Holiday - Lady Amateur Riders' Handicap Hurdle27 May 201217:10 Aylsham Show - 27th August Bank Holiday - Lady Amateur Riders' Handicap Hurdle 17:00 Royal Scots Dragoon Guards Challenge Cup (Open Hunters' Chase)27 May 201217:00 Royal Scots Dragoon Guards Challenge Cup (Open Hunters' Chase) More Stories Tags Cristiano Ronaldo, Football, Ivory Coast, Portugal, Skybet, World Cup 2010
