We still struggling with the underdogs performing well and the big teams dont doing what they supposed to do.

Hungary are going to make feel proud of his legends like Puskas Kocksis and other with this performances fighting hand to hand against the big names.

Yes they didnt score a ton of goals like before, but great performance.

Swiss is my pick today, they had been all down so far

It will be difficult for them against a Portugal in top form lately.They,Portugal will most likely win,if Switzerland scores a goal I will call it an achievement.

Yeah I'm actually really liking the Swiss against Portugal today for no other reason than for them to try and get one good win under their belt -- in a tourney where the big guns have been really shy. Yes, they got hammered a week ago by 4 goals but time for some Swiss revenge and a brace of goals/assists from MLS's highest paid player, don't you think?

That's my bet anyway, still going with a draw or win in pool.

Portugal are still struggling a lot against Switzerland. I wasn't expecting this to happen honestly because I hoped a comfortable win for Portugal. I didn't know that Ronaldo wasn't going to play in this game also but I would still pick this 3-1 win for them in the pool even if I knew. We are entering the last twenty-minute period of the game and I'm just hoping to see a silver lining as soon as possible. However, I guess that it would be too much to expect such score at this point.

I just started watching the game 15 minutes ago and Portugal is much better side. Maybe there isn't enough time for that 3:1 but I expect them to score at least one goal. They had a couple of solid chances already but Swiss keeper was able to stop all that.

Spain looking good for a clean win finally. Was about time they click into place and start collecting points.

Switzerland is winning with what I would call a lucky goal as I call lucky goals every goal that is scored right in the first minute of the game.If you see the statistics it tells you that Portugal tried all the game to equalize things but couldn't because of bad luck and a great performance from the Switzerland goalkeeper.There are exactly 8 goalkeeper saves from the part of Switzerland,the game is in additional time and most probably will end with a win of Switzerland,this is one of those kind of games I call lucky wins nevertheless 3 points are 3 points whatever the case.

Spain I had it to win 2-0 in prediction from my own mind but then I have recently upgraded to Premium in Superbru and believed the Insight there and changed to 2-1 as a result of that.Still happy with 1.5 points from two games.

in the end, it was more luck than good game, but Swiss win it for statistics
brought me joy to have one more green light on a losing parlay (it was Northern Ireland miss all along), but 3 points in a pool as well

letting go is pass, with two exact scores from today, I am going up in the pool, beware top positions, Spain was favorable for 2:0 win, and it came easy

[leea-1334]

I just cannot believe it that I got both scores wrong yesterday. I risked to get a Spain draw and that is such an expensive move as I now went out of the Top 5 and further away from LuckyGuy.

But I guess we should offer congratulations to casperBGD for getting TWO exact scores,,, I can see the yellow cap coming to rest on his head pretty soon

[Trofo]

Still can't believe Portugal did not manage to at least score one goal and get away with a draw. They were much better side in second half and they were creating opportunities every few minutes. Granted there wasn't that many clear cut chances but still more then enough for couple of goals on another day.

I needed just x2 to land my last multi and even that did not pass. Time for players to go on holiday and stop taking my money 

[Harkorede]

I actually expected a Spain win but perhaps a tight one as I went for 2-1, I did the same for Portugal, but after I saw the Portugal's line up, I changed my pick to 1-1 draw, I really felt that would hit after the early goal from the Swiss team, but I watched time slip away gradually till the end, I really don't know how some people came up with the idea that Portugal will lose the game.

I can't understand that either after seeing Portugal playing against Spain and Czech Republic no one with a sane mind would place a bet on them to lose.As I said they won because of a lucky first minute goal and then Portugal completely dominated the game but were unlucky to score a goal in that avalanche of opportunities they created.

For today games I finally expect France to win a game,they were winning against Croatia in the first game but were equalized with a penalty,I think this will not happen tonight and France will get a narrow win.

As for Denmark I expect them to repeat the success against Austria again.

TBH, France is a pick of the day, they will probably not risk going down to League B, and with another winless match, it will not getting easier for them
Croatia is playing with Modric, but I cannot see them taking point or win today

but more from that, and better odds are on Denmark, they are in good form, and win over Austria, with expected France win will put them into position to be as close to play-offs, as one team can be, so I will play them, instead of France

[darxiaomi]

Seems like not only in the A league of the Nation Leagues we have surprises results. Also in C league a shame for Slovakia lose against Kazajistan and surely cant go to B league.

Well 5 minutes and Frances its already losing.

[CLS63]

France are really not showing a satisfying performance in the UEFA Nations League. They don't seem like they will win against Croatia too now. As the players look at the UEFA Nations League as a preparation tournament, I think that they are still one of the biggest favourite teams of the World Cup. It is just the bettors who are sad now.

Croatia is always better against stronger opponents and we are really hyped to win against France. We played I think 8 times and we never won. We managed to get draw 3 times if I am remembering correctly. Very bad H2H and that works wonders on our mentality. I am always afraid when we play against teams like Austria, where it seems like it is an easy match and they actually have more then enough quality to make it hard for you.

That being said, France is playing with both Benzema and Mbappe so they want a win and there is a reason we never won against them. They play just the version of controlled football we hate and they have enough quality to always score against us. That early goal could be very important.

I'm livid that France are losing, I felt it's going to be an all out win for them, Even though they've been the better side here so far, but they've need to get level and Mbappe is being such a great threat, however it's the goals that matters.

I've got them to win either halves for the sake of them not being consistent, but that might also be a mistake on my part.

user PL Guru (also known as jim carrey lol) was the only who predicted 1-0 Croatia... congrats 🤝

I just cannot believe it that I got both scores wrong yesterday.

I'm livid that France are losing

the magic of the Nations League. Pure disbelief  

Deschamps is very lucky the WC is right around the corner and that everyone downplays the nations league, otherwise, they would've sacked him last month... Croatia though are looking great lately (except for the 0-3 to Austria, a glitch in the matrix, tbh), really hope they make it to the Nations League Finals

[CLS63]

I'm very happy that there is going to be a break of two months in the UEFA Nations League after tomorrow. I wasn't expecting to be the champion while I was participating in the pool though. But I thought that I would be able to stay in the competition. We have created a big pool with 21 people and I have been at the last position for a long time. It is shameful.

I got both picks wrong again, lol.

I'm just barely above you on the 20th position, with a single point. I've never been this worse in any pool, I'm glad about the break too. it's a lost cause in the pool for me anyways.

[Ulven]

Another loss for the French national team. What a shame. I think about the performance you will give there in Qatar if they do not change the way the plays. I think they will leave the World Cup in the group stage.
I am happy that I got a close result against Denmark, but despite this I lost two places again

[cryptofrka]

Well done Croatia, a really solid performance overall and our first win against France in our history.

At first I felt the penalty was a bit soft but after seeing it from multiple angles, there was a stomp and definitely enough contact for it to be given.
After we took the lead we basically controlled the game well and although France did put us under some pressure throughout the game - we really defended well.

Shame we lost against Austria in the 1st game, we would have been on top with a win there.
