There are three cracking Euro 2024 fixtures on Monday with France’s clash with Austria the highlight of the day.
Ukraine, considered dark horses by many, take on Romania in Munich, while Belgium and Slovakia meet in Frankfurt.
- BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE - UKRAINE VS ROMANIA
- AUSTRIA TO BEAT FRANCE
- BELGIUM TO BEAT SLOVAKIA AND OVER 2.5 GOALS
Expect A Munich Cheer Festival
Ukraine take on Romania in Munich in the first Euro 2024 contest of the day and it looks like a clash when supporters of both sides will have plenty to cheer.
The Blue and Yellow are a forward-thinking and progressive outfit and they have undoubted talent in forward areas.
Artem Dovbyk, who ended the domestic campaign as La Liga’s top scorer, is likely to lead the line for Serhiy Rebrov’s men and there is threat out wide from Viktor Tsyhankov and Mykhailo Mudryk.
Ukraine have seen 14 goals scored in their last five matches and, while the Blue and Yellow will offer plenty going forward, they are not watertight at the back.
Romania are a seriously underrated side, who have lost only one of their last 15 matches and they look capable of causing Ukraine major problems.
The Tricolours have sometimes been frustrated by defensive-minded opposition, but Edward Iordanescu’s men should get plenty of space to exploit in Munich and backing both teams to score looks the play.
Ralf’s Men Can Nick A Result
France boast a talented squad, but Les Bleus look a side massively overrated by the prices.
It’s worth noting that Didier Deschamps’ men will start the competition with a 37-year-old striker, Antoine Griezmann is past his best and a midfield duo of Aurelien Tchouameni and Adrien Rabiot isn’t entirely convincing.
France were held by Greece in Euro 2024 qualifying and victories against Ireland, Netherlands and Greece all came by a single-goal margin.
Austria are an excellent side and in Ralf Rangnick they have a coach that may be able to outsmart his rivals.
Das Team look a bet to shock France in their opening Euro 2024 contest.
Belgium A Red-Hot Bet
Belgium may find things tougher as Euro 2024 progresses, but the Red Devils look capable of turning the heat on Slovakia.
Domenico Tedesco can field a top-level front three of Romelu Lukaku, Leandro Trossard and Jeremy Doku and that trio will be fed by the elite Kevin de Bruyne.
There are concerns in other areas of the pitch, but going forward Belgium have scored 25 goals in their last 10 matches and they can add to that tally against Slovakia.
The Falcons look likely to be outclassed in Frankfurt and taking Belgium and over 2.5 goals in the game could be the way to play this Group E contest.
BELGIUM TO WIN AND OVER 2.5 GOALS
