UEFA Euro 2024 Matchday 2 Info

  • When: Wednesday, June 19 – Saturday, June 22

Germany vs. Hungary

  • When: Wednesday, June 19th

The Germans absolutely dusted Scotland. The Scottish came out with a strange 5-4-1 lineup, meaning Scotland was playing for a draw with 5 backers.

Toni Kroos and the rest of the Germans took advantage. Things don’t get much tougher for Germany versus a Hungarian side that fell by 2 goals to Switzerland in their first match. But Hungary won’t play such a goofy lineup, meaning Germany wins but only wins by a goal.

UEFA Euro 2024 Pick: Hungary +1.75 -118

Denmark vs. England

  • When: Wednesday, June 19th

Denmark’s 1-1 draw versus Slovenia didn’t impress. The English, though, weren’t overly impressive either, beating Serbia by just a goal.

The Danes will have a strategy to limit England’s shots on goal, which means, although Denmark isn’t likely to produce a victory, a draw is possible. Also, there’s a chance England suffers a small bounce in this.

UEFA Euro 2024 Pick: Draw

Spain vs. Italy

  • When: Wednesday, June 19th

Both teams won their first matches. But the Azzuri allowed Albania to score a goal. Spain throttled a much better team than Albania, Croatia, 3-0.

Lamine Yamal took some time to get going versus the Croatians. Once he did, he took over the match. When the 16-year-old phenom plays like he did versus Croatia, Spain is close to impossible to beat. The +117 odds makes El Rojo an overlay.

UEFA Euro 2024 Pick: Spain +117

Netherlands vs. France

  • When: Friday, June 21st

At the time of this writing, France had yet to play their first match. No worries. We’re handicapping the game and making a pick anyhow.

The reason? Jump on the +290 odds on the Dutch. The Netherlands was down 1-0 versus Poland and then rallied to a 2-1 victory. Super sub Wort Weghorst got the goal late in the match. The dog pulls off the upset victory.

UEFA Euro 2024 Pick: Netherlands +290

Türkiye vs. Portugal

  • When: Saturday, June 22nd

Türkiye versus Portugal should be an interesting match. Both teams have decent players. Portugal, though, is heads and tails the better team.

This is another we may want to bet early. At -179, Portugal is an overlay. But if the Portuguese win their Tuesday match versus the Czech Republic, which they should, the odds could dive to -200. Grab the decent odds on Bruno Fernandes and his mates while you can.

UEFA Euro 2024 Pick: Portugal -179

Belgium vs. Romania

  • When: Saturday, June 22nd

Even before their first Euro Cup matches, this one is easy to call. And, yes, you should bet the favorite early before the odds change.

At a +106 payout, Belgium is a great play to win this by 2 or more goals. Romania drew against Bulgaria and Liechtenstein in their final 2 international friendlies before the Euro Cup. That’s not a good sign going up against Kevin De Bruyne and his buds. Belgium rolls.

UEFA Euro 2024 Pick: Belgium -1.25 +106
