JUNE 18th EURO 2016 PREDICTIONS

EURO 2016 PREDICTIONS 

7/9 correct predictions in yesterday's bets was fantastic. Those single bets must be multiplying well seeing the high odds made available by the EUROS. The highlight of the day must have been Italy's win against Sweden. The Azzuris are proving to be a hard nut to crush, having not conceded a goal thus far in the competition, and I must say that it will be hard for any team to score against them considering the solidity displayed by the back three. Today's matches see Belgium playing Ireland, Iceland playing Hungary and Portugal playing Austria.

BELGIUM vs IRELAND (GROUP E)

Belgium are highly ranked by FIFA in the world rankings and were seen as favorites who were expected to beat every team in it pool, but that was not to be! They are currently trailing the group, with a game in hand. Looking at their previous five matches, and considering their rank, Belgium have performed dismally, winning twice, drawing once and loosing once. They have scored 7 goals, conceded 8 goals and have an imaginary 7/15 points. Their opponents, Ireland have displayed average results, winning once, drawing thrice and loosing once. They have scored 6 times in five matches, conceded 6 times and have an imaginary 6/15 points. A head to head review of the two teams has Belgium winning twice and drawing 3 times. 2/5 times had more than 2.5 goals and 3/5 times had less than.

Verdict is that considering the form, the two teams are not having a good time even though Belgium are seen as the favorites to win. Despite being under dogs in this match, Ireland will be difficult to beat and this game will produce goals both sides.

Prediction is Belgium win or draw, 1 OR X
Prediction is OVER 2.5
Prediction is BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE (YES)

ICELAND vs HUNGARY (GROUP F)

Hungary are leading group F and are looking to extending their chances of advancing past the group stages. The winner between the two will be the leader in the group. That said, Iceland are second with only a point to boast of. They, in their last five matches, have won twice, lost twice and won once, scoring 11 times and conceding 8 goals with an imaginary 7/15 points. Hungary, are not that better still, winning twice, drawing twice and loosing once, scoring 5 goals, conceding 4 goals. They have an imaginary 8/15 points. Their previous five head to head meetings has Hungary winning 2/5 and Iceland winning 3/5. In 3/5 matches, there was more than 2.5 goals and 2/5 below 2.5 goals.

Verdict is that this will be a hard match and Hungary are tipped to win it but Iceland are equally good. There will be a winner but with a very small margin.

Prediction is Hungary win or draw, 1 OR X
Prediction is OVER 2.5
Prediction is BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE(YES)

PORTUGAL vs AUSTRIA (GROUP F)

With only Hungary winning in this group, Iceland and Portugal have a point each with Austria beaten. Question is, are they going to be beaten again? Portugal are a good side and have won in 3/5 previous matches, loosing once and drawing once. They have scored 13 times, conceded 3 times and boast of 10/15 points. Their counterparts, Austria have been having a bad time on the pitch, winning twice and loosing thrice. They have scored 5 times and conceded 8 goals. They have 6/15 points from their last five matches.A head to head review of their meetings has Portugal winning in 2/5, Austria winning 1/5 and two were draws. 2/5 of their head to head matches ended up producing over 2.5 goals and the rest under.

Verdict is that Portugal might win this match considering the generosity displayed by the Austrian defense.

Prediction is Portugal win or draw, 1 OR X
Prediction is UNDER 2.5
Prediction is BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE (NO)
