⚽UEFA EURO 2020 Discussion Thread | Winner: ITALY!

[Lordhermes]

Turkey is playing horribly! They seemed to play well in friendlies and qualifying matches, and in the end they didn't make it out of the group...

Turkey's performance in the Euro was not impressive, they have played three matches, and couldn't win any.
I literally thought they would win their match yesterday against Switzerland. When the first half ended with Switzerland leading with 2 goals, I thought Turkey was going into the 2nd half to win, however, the match ended 3-1.

Today we will get to know who will qualify from Group C. Netherlands has already qualified, as they have two wins (six points) from two matches. The winner of the match between Austria and Ukraine will finish at the second position (they have 3 points each and the goal difference is also same). North Macedonia for all purposes is out of the tournament, even in the unlikely scenario of them beating Netherlands today. It is unfortunate, as a lot was expected from them after their shock win over Germany in April.

Today we have a day full of games:

Group C: North Macedonia vs Netherlands
The Netherlands should win, but Macedonia hasn't made it easy.


Group C: Ukraine vs Austria
It will certainly be a well-fought game, with both teams wanting to win to move on. I think Ukraine should win.


Group B: Russia vs Denmark
It should also be a well-played game. But I think Denmark should win.


Group B: Finland vs Belgium
Belgium should take advantage of this game, to rest some players. But Finland should have no arguments to win. Belgium should win.

A sovereign game from Italy and a very good one from Switzerland, Switzerland and Wales are probably through. The Turks are felt to be the worst team in the European Championship, I wouldn't have expected that.

Like Italy, the Netherlands will probably take the 3rd victory, with Austria and Ukraine I expect a draw.

[blue Snow]

Perfect Italy, They go to the next round then got to fight with the 2nd place C group (Ukraine vs Austria). while wales can take the opportunity to make a surprise when can beat the 2nd group B ( Rusia vs Finlandia). I think Netherland and Belgium will take the perfect score next same as Italy did, they can take it without a problem.

LOL.. this will be an interesting scenario. If the match between Austria and Ukraine ends in a draw, then both the teams will have equal points and same goal difference. If that happens, then how the no.2 and no.3 spot will be determined? And at this point I would not discount the chances of North Macedonia against Netherlands. Although the chances are low, North Macedonia has already proven that they are capable of big upsets. Anyway they are out of the tournament. And they will be aiming for a big upset in their last match.

Is that true I have not yet considered, it would be really interesting how it is evaluated, is there an official scenario? I think so, but where can we read how such a scenario is rated? The chances of North Macidonia are very modest, I don't think that the Netherlands will let the butter off their bread, the previous games have been very sovereign.

Group B: Russia vs Denmark
It should also be a well-played game. But I think Denmark should win.


Group B: Finland vs Belgium
Belgium should take advantage of this game, to rest some players. But Finland should have no arguments to win. Belgium should win.

Belgium in any case will take first place and will hardly try to win. so Finland has a chance to take one point in this match and get out of the group. Denmark needs to win. they have every chance. Aggressive play against Russia can pay off. If they score early in the match, there is every chance of winning.

I would agree that the chances are next to nil. But the odds are looking very attractive. Macedonia is at +1100. If you make a bet of $100 in favor of North Macedonia, then there is a chance to win $1100. Draw is also at +450. I haven't decided yet. But I am thinking about making two bets, one each for a draw and win by Macedonia. If the match ends either in a draw or a win for Macedonia, then I will be in profit. Even if it ends in a draw, then for a bet of $200, I will receive $450 in profit. I don't know.. but I am getting a feeling that Netherlands may not be able to win today's match.

Belgium will make a win i guess , normaly there should be no problem.
About the match between Russia against Denmark my favorite is also Denmark.
Ukraine vs Austria is hard to say who will win this , maybe we some surprise from Austria .
North Macedonia against Netherlands should be also no problem for the Netherlands , if they losing this match that would be hard for Netherland.

[cryptofrka]

We have 2 really interesting games today, the 1st one will be Ukraine - Austria in which both teams have really good chance of progress if the game ends as a draw. They would already be better than Switzerland in the best 4 out of 6 3rd placed teams spots.

It would be smart for them to play for that draw, but an early goal or a fluke can change that quickly.

The other interesting game will be Russia - Denmark, Denmark is in my opinion a better team but they need a really big win to have even a theoretical chance of going through. Russia needs a point, Denmark will probably attack from the 1st second.

I'm not sure it will be a draw otherwise both teams are equally ambitious to get 3 points, you can see group A Wales and Switzerland both got 4 points but Wales are ahead on goals therefore it will be a motivation for Ukraine and Austria every goal will be very important for them.

The Danish team is determined to win against Russia in their final Euro 2020 Group B match to squeeze into the knockout stage. Though I am not sure how many goals they must make up for, I believe they will make at least two. Clearly, they are a better team than Russia, but we will see if that will be enough today.

If this game will end with a draw, Ukraine will take 2nd place because they have scored more goals.They have 4:4, while Austria 3:3.
Netherlands probably will play without main players, but still, I don't see much chance for North Macedonia.
In group B situation looks very interesting, but I predict that Denmark will win tonight. But 3 points may be not enough for next round.

[W Jr.]

I think the Netherlands will beat North Macedonia. After Italy, the second team to close their group with 3 wins may be the Netherlands. I think Denmark will beat Russia. Belgium will beat Finland. These are my guesses.

That sounds about right and coincides with my bets for today, The Netherlands,
Denmark and Belgium to win and a draw between Ukraine v Austria.

Look at the recent performance, rather than going by their strength on paper. Denmark lost to Finland in their first match. And then Finland lost their match to Russia. It indicates that Russia either at the same level, or ahead of Denmark. Also, the absence of Christian Eriksen has considerably weakened the Danish side. They have no points from their first two matches, and Russia at least have one win from their two. In case Denmark is able to beat Russia, then we may find three teams with 3 points each in Group B.

[swogerino]

I think we will see a few draws in the games of today and I am referring to the games between lower quality teams and not Netherlands and Belgium which should have some easy wins tonight.Ukraine vs North Macedonia I think it will be a draw together with the Russia vs Finland game.These are predictions on paper as we saw a few days ago that a lot of surprises can happen in such competition like France not being able to win against Hungary for example.

Group C: North Macedonia vs Netherlands
11.00 - 6.4 - 1.26

Group C: Ukraine vs Austria
3.6 - 2.04 - 3.7 ??

Group B: Russia vs Denmark
5.00 - 3.85 - 1.73 ??

Group B: Finland vs Belgium
9.6 - 5.00 - 1.36

The result of the first and last match looks a foregone conclusion and it seems to me that you can make a bet here. As for the remaining two matches, for me personally, the result is not at all obvious and it is rather difficult to guess the outcome.

Denmark looks very strange in this championship, they attack a lot, shoot on goal, but cannot score a single goal. I think this should happen today, but it's hard to say how the match will end, any outcome is possible.

Ukraine in the match with Austria will have enough draw to go further, I can assume that Ukraine will become the whole team in defense and will play on counterattacks, this could be a big mistake.
