UEFA European Championship Qualifying

Italy vs. North Macedonia

• When: Friday, November 17th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Italy -2.5 +135 // North Macedonia +2.5 -160

Italy is 3 points behind Ukraine and 6 points behind England in their qualifying group. The Italians could score a significant victory by beating North Macedonia on Friday.

But the Italians are looking for more than just to beat the North Macedonians. Italy wants to make a statement by throttling Macedonia by at least 3 goals. Because England embarrassed the Italians in their last, we should expect the Azzurri to step it up and cover.

Soccer Betting Pick: Italy

Denmark vs. Slovenia

• When: Friday, November 17th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Denmark -1.5 +130 // Slovenia +1.5 -150

Both of these teams are rocking. Slovenia and Denmark are both 6-1-1 in Euro Championship qualifying matches, which means both have 19 points.

Slovenia shows a single goal more than the Danes, which is why Slovenia, technically, leads the group. But Denmark is the overall better team. The Danes make a statement by covering the handicap spread line.

Soccer Betting Pick: Denmark

Netherlands vs. Republic of Ireland

• When: Saturday, November 18th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Netherlands -1.5 -145 // Republic of Ireland +1.5 +125

The Republic of Ireland heads into this off a nice win. Ireland beat Gibraltar 4-0 on October 16.

The Dutch have won 3-of-4. The loss came by a goal versus France, which is running away with the group. Right now, France has 18 points and the Dutch are in second place with 12.

The Orange should play well in this, but the only opponent they’ve beaten by more than a goal was Greece in a 3-0 match. The Netherlands wins 1-0, making Ireland the handicap line play.

Soccer Betting Pick: Republic of Ireland

Portugal vs Iceland

• When: Sunday, November 19th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Portugal (-588) // Iceland (+1546)

The Republic of Ireland heads into this off a nice win. Ireland beat Gibraltar 4-0 on October 16.

The Dutch have won 3-of-4. The loss came by a goal versus France, which is running away with the group. Right now, France has 18 points and the Dutch are in second place with 12.

The Orange should play well in this, but the only opponent they’ve beaten by more than a goal was Greece in a 3-0 match. The Netherlands wins 1-0, making Ireland the handicap line play.

Soccer Betting Pick: Republic of Ireland

Scotland vs. Norway

• When: Sunday, November 19th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: Scotland (-0.25) // Norway (+0.25)

Don’t worry about Scotland’s 3 straight losses. 2 of the 3 losses were international friendlies versus England and France. The other loss was meaningful, but it was versus El Rojo in Spain.

Norway, though, remains the pick. The Norwegians had won 4 straight before a solid 1-0 loss to Spain in their last. Scotland will play tough but Norway ekes out the win in regulation.

Soccer Betting Pick: Norway

Spain vs Georgia

• When: Sunday, November 19th, 2023

• Soccer Odds: TBA

In the first head-to-head on Sep 8, Georgia lost to Spain in a 7-1 game. El Rojo dusted the Georgians on Georgia’s pitch.

This match happens in Spain. So although the Spanish don’t have to dominate, El Rojo will want to impress their fans. A 3 or 4 goal victory is probable.

Soccer Betting Pick: Spain
