Euro 2024 Prediction
This one always has a life of its own. It doesn’t matter if it’s a friendly, a match for the Nations League, the European Championship or the World Cup. In this one what comes first is pride! On Jun 20 at 19:00 GMT for Group B at Arena AufSchalke, it’s time for the clash of two European titans. Spain vs Italy. For many it’s the encounter that will define the leader of the group.
What bookies think about Spain vs Italy
While it doesn’t really matter, the odds are based on the latest performances of the two sides. Spain defeated Northern Ireland by 5-1, Andorra by 5-0 drew a 3-3 with Brazil and lost 1-0 to Colombia. Italy barely managed to win 1-0 over Bosnia & Herzegovina, drew 0-0 with Türkiye, and won 2-0 and 2-1 over Ecuador and Venezuela respectively.
What we see in those results is the ease by which the Furias Rojas score and the difficulty of the Italians in that department. However, it is also quite difficult for the latter to concede. So, in fact, we have a battle between a great offense and a great defense.
Italy haven’t won since 2016
June 27 2016. This is the date of the last victory of the Squadra Azurra. Next came two 1-1 draws, while the Iberians have won all three last ones. 3-0, and 2-1. Meaning that Spain have established a psychological advantage over their opponents. Perhaps it’s a motive for the Italians to do better this time.
All of the above quite justify the @2.313 for the Furias Rojas and the @3.303 for Italy. An interesting market is the one that says that Spain will score at least once. An AH of 0.5 gets @1.990 on a market that is rather a certainty more than a possibility. Which makes the @2.646 for a 0-0 correct score, a strange price. Especially considering that a draw gets @2.160…
We believe that the @2.900 for the win of the Spaniards is a good bet with a high chance of success and quite a decent return of our investment. Since we will go for it, we suggest that you go open an account at the best betting platform and do the same.
