BettingDiaryThe first of the Euro 2020 last 16 matches take place on Saturday and we suggest a bet in each of them.

 

 

 

 

Let’s start with a look at the Outright Betting where France are trading at 7/2 favourites ahead of Italy priced at 6/1.   You can get 13/2 about Germany and England who meet each other in the last 16, then 7/1 Spain, 8/1 Belgium, 9/1 the Netherlands and you can get 10/1 and better the balance.

Click here for Outright Betting including Player of the Tournament where Kevin De Bruyne is currently the 7/1 favourite and Team to Score the Most Goals where Netherlands are 11/4 favourites.

 

 

WALES v DENMARK

Wales and Denmark meet in Amsterdam in Saturday’s first match.

Wales progressed to the Last 16 courtesy of a runner-up finish to Italy in Group A. They lost 1-0 to the Italians in their final game, but prior to that beat Turkey 2-0 and drew 1-1 with Switzerland.

Denmark were also runners-up in their Group, finishing behind Belgium and they required goal difference to finish ahead of Finland and Russia in what was a very competitive Group B. Their final match a 4-1 win over Russia proved to be crucial as they had lost their opening encounters against Belgium and Finland.

Wales 17/4

Draw 9/4

Denmark 17/20

Suggested Bet: Denmark win at 17/20

After their dramatic start to the Tournament with the Christian Eriksen collapse and subsequent loss to Finland, Denmark will have plenty of supporters rooting for them to go deep.

Wales have given a good account of themselves to date, but I was impressed with Denmark in their hammering of Russia and I think they win this one.

 

 

ITALY v AUSTRIA

This match takes place at Wembley.

Italy won all 3 of their Group matches concluding matters with a 1-0 win over Wales, but in the earlier games they had beaten Switzerland 3-0 and Turkey 3-0 so they have yet to concede a goal in the Tournament while scoring 7.

Austria came through one of the softer groups finishing as runners-up to the Netherlands. They beat Ukraine 1-0 in their last match to secure that 2nd place spot, having lost to the Netherlands 2-0 and beaten North Macedonia by 3-1.

Italy 5/10

Draw 63/20

Austria 25/4

Suggested Bet: Handicap, Italy (-1) at 29/20

For me, Italy have been one of the more impressive teams in the Tournament and I think the current odds on them winning of 6/1 is generous.

Back to this game though and I think their tight defence to stand up to the Austrian attack and that they will grab the lead at some point. When Austria are forced to come forward, Italy can capitalise and win by more than a goal.
