⚽UEFA EURO 2020 Discussion Thread | Winner: ITALY!

[LTU_btc]

Speaking about Friday games, Finland probably will take guaranteed spot in Euro 2020. Bosnia - Italy match *might* be interesting, but it doesn't mean anything for both teams.
Probably I will watch Romania - Sweeden because it will be direct clash for 2nd place in group.

I liked the way Christiano Ronaldo played and completed yet another hat trick, i did not expect 6 goals but i was expecting a few goals.

Such games is good for his personal stats, but I think that hat trick or poker against us doesn't mesns much, especially if you see how pathetic we played in both games against Portugal.

[Prime Gold]

I'm surprised about such big win of England - 7:0. Because Montenegro is half decent team with few good players.
And how France won against Moldova just 2:1???

I see France is only targeting 3 points to stay on top of the group standings no matter what the final score is most important they won
Moreover, France looks strong when against strong teams, otherwise it is normal when against weak teams.

Such games is good for his personal stats, but I think that hat trick or poker against us doesn't mesns much, especially if you see how pathetic we played in both games against Portugal.

There is no doubt CR7 is trying to improve his goal scoring stats and it is easy to say but i consider him as one of the best along Messi because of his goal scoring skills and i am enjoying these moments, i understand your sentiment  .

Today we have some good matches and will update my prediction later.

What a tragic betting day yesterday...
omg...

today I have to make better predictions to raise up from that mess

Bosnia & Herzegovina - Italy
Both Teams To Score Yes @1.78

but I'm waiting if there will be BIH to score more than 0.5, now there is only the 1.5 margin

[leea-1334]

Nothing interesting today. Again some one-sided games with too low odds and other games are hard to predict. I'm betting only on BiH - Italy Both teams to score.
Both teams are under no pressure. Italy has first place guaranteed, Bosnia is out. But they will have a full stadium of supporters behind them so they will try to score one for the fans. Pjanić is back after missing previous game because of a red card.

France had a shock last night. They needed one contentious goal and one easy penalty to win,,, and we are talking about Moldova too. But still, this is the hallmark of great teams, who can play badly against a defensive opponent and find a way to get 3 points.

My prediction for tonight is based on your assessment. Italy will have no pressure, so they will play happily and win easily. But Bosnia playing for pride will still score one too, so BTTS seems good.

tragic what? i think everything just fine  , france win, england win and portugal win.

as expected england demolished montenegro 7-0
portugal demolished lithuania 6-0

portugal over 3.5 goals at 1.65 is not bad at all and england over 3.5 goals at 1.71 worth the risk we won in both sides . two hattricks in these two matches  unbelievable performance from cristiano he is second all-time goalsocrer in international football!
Ali Daei 109 goals
Cristiano Ronaldo 98 goals
Ferenc Puskas 84 goals

he is a machine!

Bosnia is very good and strong when they play at home but very weak when they play away.
Also,  they depend to much on Pjanic and Deko.
I'm sorry because of their coach Prosinecki.
He is very good coach but even he can't do much with such limited team.
I think Bosnia will score but not sure if they can win.

Italy has a good defense, from 8 matches only conceded 3 goals so it is almost impossible for Bosnia to win. Italy collected 24 points with a perfect victory never lose and draw
But I agree Bosnia will score, because they compete with Armenia who both collect 10 points.

The main question is, will Italy use their main players tonight as they are in a very safe position on the group as the leader at the moment with 24 points from 8 matches (perfect point). Means that there is no team in the group that will be able to overtake their position as there are 2 matches left only.
On the first match last June, Bosnia could score 1 goal although they played as away team. Today Bosnia will play as home team, and I believe they are still hoping to go to the next round although it is hard mathematically. I'll wait to see the lines-up first before I decide what to bet in this match, as the odds for Italy to win is high enough currently (above 2x).

In my opinion, Prosinečki was a fantastic player but is a horrible coach
These famous ex-footballers might get a chance with lower-rated national teams from local countries, but I can never imagine Prosinečki being at a decent club or being a manager of a decent national team.

Bosnia actually is decent and is probably the furthest Prosinečki will come as a coach.

True, it's better to wait for the line up to be announced. who knows the line-up that is derived from Italy uses their second player, meaning the coach gives an opportunity for players who have never played. because Italy has been confirmed to pass to the next round, right?

Surprise surprise surprise! I think everyone expecting a goal fest in this match like over 4.5 goals or so.

Moldova often conceded more than 3 goals statistically and it's against france makes people confidently bet for over 3.5 goals even more ... unfortunately it was bookies day as I believe they have got so much profit in the pocket right now!
However if only there's no penalty and or giroud failed to score that goal , those people who placed bet draw for this match would get a huge odds... it was @37 for the draw!   , under 3.5 goals itself @2.75 damn this match must be making a lot of people frustrated especially those who loves betting on low odds!

That's true dude, I make a bet for over 3.5 goals and LOST! sometimes reality is not as beautiful as our predictions. but I don't understand that with France in the first meeting they could win 4-1 at Moldova, but when France plays at home they can only win 2-1. very different from the England match.

I think that it is sure that both teams are going to score.
It would be a wide open game and they are going to play offensively both as there is not any interest from both Italy and Bosnia.
Over 2.5 is good to bet - over 3.5 is harder to achieve.

[Lucas*]

Today there are two games that can make the difference in their group, the first one Romania vs Sweden and the second one Switzerland vs Georgia.
About Switzerland vs Georgia, I think that Switzerland will do All their best to win this game and I think that they can do it, the difference between them and Ireland and Danemark is 1 point so if they win they became first in their group, I will bet for them to win this game with 2+ goals.
About Romania vs Sweden well it's really hard to predict who will be the winner, both team want the win and both time will do All their best to win, Sweden is 2nd in the group with 15 points and Romania is 3rd with 14 points, this game is the key for both team and I think it will be a draw well I will not make a mistake and bet for this game, but I don't expect many goals in this game maybe under 3 goals.

[notblox1]

Great odds for Italy away win.
I cant see that home team can win here in million years, but for safe bet I would play asian handicap
or draw no bet Italy win. Draw is also possible.
Italians have booked their place for EURO and all the preasure will be on home team, as they must win

I don’t think there was any surprises for us last night, all the big teams had easy outings and scored at free will. England managed to score 6 goals without Sterling, but Gomez was booed by the fans because of the role he had played in Sterling’s ouster from the team. At 34 years of age Cristiano Ronaldo just rolled back the years with his performances, and I feel he won’t stop till he breaks the record of Ali Daei.

In the first leg Italy almost lost at home because at that time Bosnia scored the first goal and won in the first round
Today Bosnia plays at home so bookies offer good odds for Italy, it's kind of a trap and I won't choose one of them. My bet goes to both teams to score

Bookies always one step ahead of us , so you need to think against your desires and seeing things in bookies perspectives.

That's how I make money though.  You'll feel cheated with that result isn't it? It's often so confusing.... with all those statistics you shouldn't have lost it but hey that's gambling, that's how sports betting works, they fools you .
I've seen the worse... when you lose on an odds @1.01 , france nearly did it to us .
Anyways... it's Norway live now leading 2-0 against faroe islands in the first 8 minutes , what a start!
Aaaand Finland leading 1-0 too against Lichtenstein, I guess three more goals will be scored and sealed their spot on the second below italy, 1 ticket for Finland to euro 2020 congratulations!

[uray]

Romania vs Sweden

I think you will see both teams to score in this match and this will be an interesting match and i will be watching this match.

Switzerland vs Georgia

I am going with Switzerland to win the match and if they win then Ireland will go down in the rankings and the Irish fans will be supporting Georgia in this match  .

Spain vs Malta, expecting a goal fest from Spain.
Denmark vs Gibraltar, another goal fest match.
