[football] EURO 2024

[Harkorede]

Current odds after tonight's round:



England is the favourite, but that's largely due to them having Switzerland as the opponent in the quarter-final, which is considered one of the weakest team in the bunch.
My first pick is Spain, followed by Portugal.

I would say England are considered the favorite simply because they're facing Switzerland in the quarter final, and not just that but their path generally looks like the easiest compared to that of Spain, at least on paper. If England should manage to win against Switzerland, they'll be facing either of Netherlands / Romania or Austria / Turkey, I don't think there is any easier path than that for any team, while as for Spain, even if the should win against Germany, they'll still have to either France or Portugal, and we can all agree that is quite a tough fixture for any team.

The clubs on the Euro that has matches today is Romania vs Netherlands and Austria against Turkiye and so far Romania and Netherlands match has started and they are about going on half time, the match seem very tough for the both teams even Netherlands is currently winning with 1:0, though if Netherlands still maintains this performance they had on this first half on there second half they will win the match.

Well with the look of things I think there would be some fighting back from Romania on there second half, on the other hand Austria and Turkiye match will soon start and I believe the match will be more interesting and tougher than Netherlands match today because Austria and Turkiye has similar performance and this is the match they will never take for granted.

It's a shame to see a Belgian team playing like they did for +80 minutes, they needed the goal to put France in trouble, what a poorly planned game by the coach...

But we also have to look at the opponents they face, France is a big country and they have good players in them. Belgium actually has that too, but I don't see any good cooperation, and KDB can't do much.

2 matches remaining before we enter the round of 8 which will be played today. Who do you think will follow the 6 countries that are already in the top 8 of the 4 countries that will compete?

When the level of the teams that face each other is very equal, the names of the national teams go into the background, as this was the case, perhaps one of the best Belgian national teams that did not win anything... "dies"...

It was an easy win for Netherland today because they were able to score two goals in the second half by Malen to end the match 3-0. On the other hand Turkey pulled another stunt by winning Austria 2-1. They scored two goals before Austria scored the first goal. I wanted to place my bet on Turkey winning the match because they booker favored Austria to win the match but because I have not watched Austria match that much, I got confused and did not stake for the match.

on the other hand Austria and Turkiye match will soon start and I believe the match will be more interesting and tougher than Netherlands match today because Austria and Turkiye has similar performance and this is the match they will never take for granted.

It was a very tough game between both teams because it was very fast paced and each team had the potential to score each time they attacked. Turkiye were well prepared for this game and did their best to match the speed that Austria came with, the early goal they scored made things easier and gave them the advantage from the start. Austria came a long way, unexpectedly after a brilliant performance in this competition, they crash out. Netherland will be the next opponent for Turkiye, that's a tougher game.

Amazing!
Spain really conquered Georgia very well.
...

After Italy's departure from the tournament I believe that many will support Spain, very similar in style of play and certainly a fresh team with excellent dribbling.

But unfortunately, Spain had to fight first against another tough team, namely Germany. It cannot be denied that Germany also has a strong and solid lineup. So, of course they will be much more challenging compared to their previous opponents. Yes, in this QF, Spain vs Germany and also France vs Portugal are much more challenging and tight matches compared to the other 2 matches.

This is quite difficult to predict, but if we look at the probability, Spain has more probability, but only by 1% difference. So, there is still a high possibility that Germany will also reverse. It's just a matter of how both of them will optimize their chances during the match. If we look at the composition of the players, there is no doubt that both of them have a squad that is equally solid and strong, consisting of well-known top players and clubs.

What's about France vs Portugal?
Honestly, I really want to see Portugal in the final. But, in fact, this will be tough, and honestly, France has higher probability to win.

What's about France vs Portugal?
Honestly, I really want to see Portugal in the final. But, in fact, this will be tough, and honestly, France has higher probability to win.

Considering the last match of Portugal and France, both teams looked not in their best performance. Even if France is predicted to win the match, but I think Portugal is still possible to surprise France. Moreover, Mbappe isn't in his best condition, this brings an impact on his performance. As a machine goal of France, this situation influences the productivity of France goals.

I still favor Portugal to win against France. I think Ronaldo factor and support from his teammates will lead them to be in the final round.    This will be the last Euro of Ronaldo.

And here we are, only 8 teams left.
My picks for the winners of the quarter-finals:
Spain
Portugal
England
Turkey

ps, why do English portals spell Turkey as "Türkiye"?? What kind of nonsense is that?

I saw this odds on England but I dont understand it, this looks like a trap by bookies, and I would not underestimate Switzerland.
Other teams played much better than England and I think that Germany or France can win the trophy if they pass Portugal and Spain.

ps, why do English portals spell Turkey as "Türkiye"?? What kind of nonsense is that?

They dont want you to confuse country with bird animal with same name
Official name is Republic of Türkiye or Türkiye Cumhuriyeti.

I still favor Portugal to win against France. I think Ronaldo factor and support from his teammates will lead them to be in the final round.    This will be the last Euro of Ronaldo.

I really don't know If Portugal can really count on Ronaldo right now, he's one of the greatest player to have ever graced a football pitch, but he's best days are far behind him and he's not accepting that reality which is his biggest problem right, and from mental state of mind, Ronaldo is not as confidence and as instinctive as goal poacher that he used to be, his emotions gets the best of him now and it really rubs off on the entire squad, he'd be better being a role player for betterment of the entire squad, he really doesn't have to play 90 minutes or spearhead the team, his influence on the game from the sideline or as a cameo for 25-30 minutes would still be of uttermost impact, but these Portugal team will not reach their best performance level if Ronaldo still have to be the sole player as their No. 9, like we what teams like Germany are doing with Thomas Muller, and even in the Copa America consider what Uruguay are doing with Luis Suarez despite Suarez being in red hot form for Inter Miami this season.

And here we are, only 8 teams left.
My picks for the winners of the quarter-finals:
Spain
Portugal
England
Turkey

In fact, it is difficult to determine which team will make it to the semi-finals with the determined match pairs. especially for the Spain vs Germany match. The host team, Germany, is also in their best performance. they played very stable and disciplined from the start of the Euro. Spain showed an aggressive game which was always difficult to stop. But I would probably choose Germany.

And this is my choice for now who I will predict will qualify for the semi-finals.

- Germany
- Portugal
- Switzerland
- Dutch

But my choice could change when it comes to betting.

This is not something strange in my opinion, because in reality there are many who have a number of star players, but in their games they are just ordinary, even tend to be bad.

For example, England, they have good players in almost every position, but have they shown anything good? I don't see it, although I think the problem lies with their coach who doesn't have a strategy and even looks ridiculous in selecting players to play. Lol

Everyone has their own ideas, and it's nice to have different ideas and be able to talk about them.  For example, why do you bet on Germany and not Spain?
For me, the game of our German friends doesn't convince me very much, while the game of the red furies is really fluid and lethal at the same time.

Many factors can influence a team's performance. Even if a team has a lot of star players but if their coach is not good at making strategies then well it will be quite chaotic. These good players will not be able to display their maximum potential. And in several teams we have seen this. Where the team has a number of star players in Europe but the results are below everyone's expectations.

My choice may still be based on my gut feeling. Because even yesterday I chose the Netherlands and Türkiye based on my gut feeling and I didn't expect it to work. And now I hope my hunch works again. Although I also realized that Spain is actually much more trustworthy. It's just that I consider the atmosphere of the stadium which will be filled with the host's supporters there. So mentally Germany should be able to play with more confidence. yeah that's a lame excuse. But I understand that people prefer Spain. 

[Zed0X]

~ Netherland will be the next opponent for Turkiye, that's a tougher game.

Netherlands might appear lucky with their recent opponents/draw compared to the other European powerhouse teams but I think this is a good match up. I expect another fast-pace game and, honestly, I'm rooting for an upset.
