Euro 2020 betting: Picks for the semifinal games
Welcome to the semifinals. We'll know the two teams who will play for the Euro 2020 championship on Wednesday afternoon. And here are your betting picks to fade for the two semifinal games. All odds are from BetMGM.
Italy vs. Spain
Tuesday, 3 p.m. ET, ESPN
Italy (+145)
Spain (+200)
Regulation Tie (+220)
Over/under: 2.5 goals
Italy enters Tuesday’s semifinal as the favorite despite the loss of marauding wingback Leonardo Spinazzola. He’s been one of the most dynamic fullbacks of the tournament but suffered a torn left Achilles tendon in the win over Belgium. As Spain will look to control possession, Italy’s ability to strike quickly on the counter-attack will be key. And Italy has shown that it’s one of the quickest attacking teams of the tournament.
Official picks
Italy (+145)
Over 2.5 goals (+120)
Bold bet
Italy to win 2-1 (+900)
England vs. Denmark
Wednesday, 3 p.m. ET, ESPN
England (-150)
Denmark (+450)
Regulation Tie (+270)
Over/under: 2.5 goals
Jadon Sancho saw his first action of the tournament against Ukraine. Will he start again against a Denmark squad that’s much better equipped to keep the game competitive? Denmark has played incredibly fun and organized soccer since its traumatic opening game and don’t be surprised if it scores the first goal of the tournament against England. Will England go with a back three and two wingbacks or a standard back four? England has only gone with three centerbacks once so far this tournament. It will probably go with three at the back if it makes it to the final. Will Gareth Southgate try it in the semifinal?
Official picks
England (-150)
Over 2.5 goals (+120)
Bold bet
England to win and both teams to score (+325)
