Everyone loves an underdog and for the <strong>2018</strong> World Cup, there are a few<br />
possibilities. Iceland and Poland continue to improve and gain impressive results<br />
against much stronger nations. They play without fear and a desire to win, winning<br />
the hearts of football fans throughout the world.<br />
In the eyes of the online betting <strong>com</strong>panies, Germany is the outright favourites, but<br />
rarely cup tournaments go as expected.<br />
Another key focus on the tournaments will be the top scorer, the world-class<br />
performers of Ronaldo, Neymar and Messi, or is this the opportunity for younger<br />
players such as Harry Kane to prove they are amongst the world’s best.<br />

For the football fan, Russia is expected to be a fantastic venue for the tournament.<br />
With many years of planning, investment in the infrastructure including transport,<br />
new hotels, and new stadiums, the facilities are expected to be superb.<br />
Tickets for each match may not be easily obtained, but there are many public<br />
areas to watch each game. FIFA has provided venues in eleven cities across Russia<br />
known as “FIFA fan fest” venues, these are public family-oriented environments<br />
where matches can be viewed in a party atmosphere. Maybe not as good as<br />
being in the stadium, but certainly a close second.<br />
Situated at the heart of Saint<br />
Petersburg in Russia, The State<br />
Hermitage Museum Official Hotel<br />
may just be 4 years old but it<br />
gives off a vibe of being a historic<br />
location. Developed as a part of<br />
the State Hermitage Museum, this<br />
hotel has been designed to take<br />
you back in time. You shall feel<br />
like a king or queen when staying<br />
at this hotel with splendid services<br />
that make you feel special. The<br />
hotel catches your attention right<br />
from the moment you enter the<br />
grand lobby with a glass dome<br />
and magnificent chandelier.<br />
Whether you choose to lie down<br />
in your king size bed or dine<br />
under the exquisite chandeliers<br />
in the in-house restaurants, you<br />
will definitely feel pampered<br />
here. You could also unwind in<br />
the Mon Plaisir Spa with relaxing<br />
massages. The hotel also boasts of<br />
some fine ballroom and meeting<br />
rooms.<br />
