Today we’ve got the final Group B match, where Germany looks like the clear favorites to move on while the Netherlands is basically staring at an early exit

Portugal vs. Netherlands: I'm calling both teams to score and over 2.5 goals total
After losing 2-1 to Germany in the second round, the Dutch are expected to shake up their lineup today, though they could still get knocked out even if they pull off a win. Portugal just barely edged out Denmark 3-2, so a draw would be enough to keep them moving forward... I think they'll try to play it smart and patient to grab the win, but if the Netherlands scores first, things are gonna have to open up pretty quickly
Both sides have killer offenses but their defenses are kind of a mess, so this pick at 2.05 odds feels like a solid play to me
good luck if you're riding with me

I caught some of the action, though I'm guessing most people were watching the Netherlands against Denmark... there were plenty of chances and the Dutch looked way sharper, but Germany just has that knack for showing up right when it counts, even if the Netherlands was all over the place with their rhythm... honestly, I'm just taking the away win for a small stake today because Germany at 2.6?! you can't leave that on the table...

They’re playing Denmark last and they’ve already got 3 points from the first match, so this could easily end in a draw...

Haven't really hit my stride this Euro yet, sitting at 1w/5l/1 void, down about 4.76 units...

The handicap kind of saved my skin, otherwise it would've been a total train wreck. 😁

Can't say I'm doing much better, 1w/3l
only nailed Russia, missed on Spain and France winning and that USA-Ireland game being under 2.5 goals...

Gonna try my luck with Russia again today, gotta grab that 2.5 coefficient since they looked so good in the opener. Poland might be playing at home, but they can't sustain it against Russia for the full ninety. You saw what happened against Greece—they look great in the first half, which is what I'm expecting today, but then they just fall apart in the second... On the flip side, the Russians played at a high level the whole match against the Czechs, pressing hard and bagging two early goals before cruising through halftime, then coming out and doing the exact same thing mid-way through the second half... We can't forget they conceded one, but it didn't really mess with their rhythm...

I’m thinking about calling a France win today, though I'm a little iffy on the goal count... since England's been playing such a tight, defensive style under their new manager—both those pre-season matches were just 1-0 shutouts—but looking back at their last five matchups, they usually end up with something like 2 or 3 goals total

11/17/10 INT England vs France 1 : 2
03/26/08 INT France vs England 1 : 0
06/13/04 EUR France vs England 2 : 1
09/02/00 INT France vs England 1 : 1
02/10/99 INT England vs France 0 : 2

Over at FanDuel, the 2-3 goal range is sitting at 1.7, while over 2.5 goals is at 2.40

well if that's how they play things, I guess it shouldn't be a surprise they're pulling these kinds of stunts on payouts...
what's the word on other sportsbooks regarding stuff like this?

St. Louis vs. San Diego
I’m not even gonna get into her stats because, honestly, I just want San Diego to pull off the win, or at least grab a draw...
But looking at the rosters, the St. Louis lineup should technically come out on top, especially since they're playing at home with odds around 1.90 if anyone's feeling lucky enough to bet on them...

p.s. Deep down, I'm really rooting for them to blow it 😍

goldenmarlin5 said:hey. i've got an account on DraftKings, but i was thinking about setting one up on FanDuel too. basically, if i open an account there, can i just use FanDuel gift cards to load cash into my main account?
i mean... i buy the card and then just type in the activation code on the site?

if i remember right, the funds should just show up in your balance automatically once you activate the voucher...

A few quick thoughts before Zadar vs Inter kicks off

Both sides have been absolutely terrible this part of the season, so I really don't expect anything resembling decent football at Stanovi today... Zadar is basically playing without a striker since Santini left, especially with Mršić suspended, four guys out with injuries, and the rest of the squad just looking totally lost...
On the flip side, you've got Inter, who got hammered in both their appearances last spring, so they're looking to redeem themselves against Zadar in Stanovi, which is never going to be an easy task... Inter is also missing some key pieces right now...
If you ask me, betting on a draw feels like the move here, given the odds are sitting around 3.30 depending on which sportsbook you're using...
