Euro - 2nd Round - Pick the Winners.

[lud]

My bets are:

Denmark vs Wales
- classic 2-0,3-1 match

Austria vs Italy
- Italy win with ease, Austria will not score

Czech Rep. vs Netherlands
- for this time, I have hope Netherlands could actually won this Euro

Belgium vs Portugal
- this could be tight match with et or penalties. Portugal has more experience and will play on counter which Belgium don't like

Croatia vs Spain
- my country Croatia. This whole scenarij is way too similiar to Euro 2016. This could be most dramatic match of R2, with Spain wins in heartbreaking match after et.

France vs Switzerland
- call me crazy, I can see upset here. France is way more better, but they are not convincing.

England vs Germany
- England might have 7 points with no goals conceeded, but they don't play good. Germany while not convincing, but they make lots of creative chances.

Sweden vs Ukraine
- Sweden wins in boring game 1-0

Croatia over Spain or Czech over Netherlands.

Unless you consider Portugal over Belgium being an upset.

Mostly chalk. One of the big teams are going out obviously. Not sure which one but I'm going ot take Wales/Czech/Croatia all to win because they're all sitting around 5-1 odds, and none would shock me

 

[Havre]

Sweden are ridiculously big favourites by those results.

It feels fairly certain that Italy will win, but the rest I think are difficult to be all that certain about. France will obviously win at their best, but I haven't been convinced by them so far (which might be a good thing - as few go through tournaments like this looking great from the beginning). The Dutch look solid, but the Czech Republic has surprised me. A better team than I thought.

Denmark
Italy
Netherlands
Portugal
Croatia
France
England
Sweden

Belgium over Portugal, 2-2 (4-3p) (Lukaku x 2, CR7, Jota)

Croatia over Spain, 1-0 (Kovacic, why the f*** not)

Sweden over Ukraine, 1-0 AET (Isak)

I've decided that im rooting for Italy to win it all. Italy over Germany in the final. Bottom half of the draw is garbage, but the English will probably bottle it against the Germans (who have been poor).

The Swedes have been impressive. With not the most difficult route to the final, they may do damage here.

That's exactly why France is terrifying: they haven't been anywhere near their best and they still won their group and made it through both Germany and Portugal without a loss. Their backend is elite and they're the type of team that needs very few good scoring opportunities to win because they have the guys upfront that can easily and efficiently convert.

They're still the best on paper, though obviously that guarantees absolutely nothing once the game starts.

From your words to God's ears.

Croatia gonna beat Spain 1-0, on a game where Spain’s xG is like 3.85

 

[Peen]

Literally my exact thought lol

 

[Eye of Ra]

if morata plays, spain lose. if morata is benched, spain win. it all depends on morata.

 

[cgf]

if morata plays, spain lose. if morata is benched, spain win. it all depends on morata.

If Morata is benched, Spain might be my 2nd favorite to win it all.

48:0 for Italy.. Wow

 

[Czechboy]

Not that Fifa rankings are everything....but:

When I see our ranking I'm even happier we got out of a tough pool and advanced!

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

3/3 so far

EDIT: make that 4/4

 

[lud]

My bets are:

France vs Switzerland
- call me crazy, I can see upset here. France is way more better, but they are not convincing.

As predictable.

 

[Blender]

4/6 for me so far. Missed on Wales and France.
