We're at the business end of Euro 2020 now and eight teams put their European Championship ambitions on the line over the next two days.
Belgium v Italy
Belgium v Italy would be plenty of neutrals' idea of a final they'd like to see but one these nations will depart at the quarter-final stage after the two sides meet in Munich on Friday night.
Despite being ranked number one in the world bookies continue to underestimate the Belgians. Three of their four wins have come at odds of over even money and once more they're backable at a very tempting best price of 5/2 at Marathonbet.
But Italy look like they'll give Roberto Martinez's side their toughest examination to date. There's a club-feel about this Italian squad and that's translated on to the picth where they've barely put a foot wrong. Austria forced extra-time against the Azzurri in the last round and that might've been a timely reminder to the Italians that they need to be on it every game if they're to lift the Henri Delaunay trophy next Sunday.
There doesn't look to be too much between the two sides so Italy feel a little short at 11/8, therefore Belgium feel the value bet again. Mark Walker agrees in his match preview where he's also picked out a 14/1 Man of the Match tip.
Switzerland v Spain
After a stunning comeback and shoot-out win over France can Switzerland do it again and win against the odds gainst Spain? Well, they can draw inspiration from their last meeting at a major tournament between the two nations. That was back at the 2010 World Cup when Spain were easily the best team on the planet and the unfancied Swiss pulled off a shock 1-0 win.
Vicente Del Bosque's side recovered to lift the trophy in South Africa but there's no room for error this time round.
After just one goal in their opening two games the Spanish have struck 10 in the last last two with seven different players finding the net (plus an own goal).
That ability to score from all areas of the pitch must be a concern for the Swiss but the bookies have shown them a bit more respect after that shock win in the last round and they're a best priced 5/1 (William Hill) to win inside 90 minutes. But it's the Spanish who are hot favourites to progress; 8/13 to so in 90 minutes and 3/10 by any method.
KevMac reckons the goal-rush could continue in St Petersburg in his match preview and has two goal-related tips for the match.
Copa America
We're also at the quarter-final stage of the Copa America (live on BBC iPlayer) and a huge thanks to Tolu for his coverage of the tournament for us. Friday's late night match features Peru v Paraguay, while hosts Brazil face Chile at 1.00am on Saturday morning if you're still looking for some late night live football.

Inplay offer for tge Belgium Italy game with Bet365
Fredrikstad over 1.5tgs @ 1/1 (bet365) nap
As much as their form has been poor the last few games they still know where the net is having failed in 1 game out of 8 to hit 2+, and are playing a Ranheim side who have conceded 10 in their last 5 games. This was 5/6 earlier today so more than happy to take a shift in odds to evens.
Longshot
Fredrikstad over 3.5tgs @ 10/1 (bet365)
Good luck all 🤞
For anyone interested as well, bet365 are again being generous in the pricing for each team to have a card in comparison to elsewhere. For tomorrow it’s as low as 0.16/1 at skybet , yet evens with bet365.
The games on Saturday see bet365 go 1.1/1 for each team to get a card which I think is a good price for the teams involved. Also worth a go at those prices for all 8 teams to see a card @ 3.4/1.
Each team tomorrow to get a card @ 1/1 (bet365)
Each team on Saturday to get a card @ 1.1/1 (bet365)
All 8 teams to get a card @ 3.4/1 (bet365)
Personally just find this a nice bet to keep me interested in each game as well 😅
Good spot on the cards mate bet365 are way ahead of sky and hills in this market .
If you fancy all the teams to get over 1 card it is 24/1 at sky and just about 125/1 bet265
Not much of a difference .
Spot on Bigwigg – 365 are hugely more benevolent on card prices in this tournament!
What awful odds 0.16 for a card each in Spain game. How do they justify those odds? Should be closer to evens.

Is anyone else getting really pis@ed off with bet365? Was waiting on two corners in Icelandic game after five legs of nice acca in. My bets section disappears, along with your cash out. Cash out would’ve been about 85pc I reckon. Bet, of course, loses….and an hour later my bets returns. Gone totally downhill at a site and company in recent months.
happened to me champions league final , could not even see my bet. bet365

Afc champions league action for me today and I’m backing Japanese top dogs Kawasaki frontale to run riot and put one foot in the next round. Not much to go on in way of team news etc, the only bit of added info I can add to these is the results from the group so far that give an idea of where these sides are at
Kawasaki 3-2 daegu
Daegu 7-0 United city
United city 1-1 Beijing guoan
Kawasaki 7-0 Beijing guoan
As you can see United took a pasting from daegu, who Kawasaki beat, and drew with Beijing who Kawasaki took 7 off. I fancy something similar today.

The master.
They have been doing that for ages now.
How much money do they really need.!!!!
I ditched them half way into the euros because of the same thing they done to you. Pure greed on there behalf.
It’s crap. You need to write your bet down to remember what you have on now!
Morning gents,
A great 1st half of corners was followed by a rare barren 2nd half in Iceland to down my hopes.

Beijing 7-2 to score at Kawasaki and 40-1 to win was unthinkable until recently.
Checked their last couple of games against games they played at the turn of the year and the non Chinese names have gone.
Has the big money they were paying dried up making them this shite ?.
Is it covid restrictions ?.
If so it’s another boom and bust scenario.
They tried it in the USA years ago and it didn’t take off, their league is now a Jurassic park for washed up footballers and irrelevant cretins like Beckham.
Countries that have never been football countries can’t change their d.n.a.
The local players say in China will never become world class national side as they won’t have the mega buck imports there to guide them.
Usually it’s boom and bust and back to square one, same with clubs like anzhi Makhachkala (remember them) money ran out then they sink back to where they naturally belong).
I’m rabbiting on a bit I know while looking for a daytime to pass the time on my day off 😂😂
It’s Beijing At deagu not Kawasaki 😂
William hills has them at 100-1 to win.
What sort of team are they sending ?
Last December Beijing were 8-11 to win in Seoul in champions League.
Today they are 100-1 to win in deagu in champions League.
This shows the drop off the cliff in class terms 😳😳
Was hard to find any info about it but apparently they send their u21 squad.
21 day quarantine upon re-entry to China, so senior team (btw managed by Slaven Bilic) stayed.
The other chinese team Guangzhou FC also seems to have send a youth team.
Is the goal line on both tie worth a punt?
🌟
Cheers LC Jensen 👍.
With match odds of 1-66 deagu win and your info on the under 21 team traveling will try a team goals bet

Deagu to score 5+ goals (5 or more) EVENS (SKYBET).
Handicap -4 is EVENS also but they need to score 5 for that anyhow and if it ended 5-1 it would lose so the 5+ is the one.
Beijing lost 7-0 home to Kawasaki so sounds like their under 21 team played in that.

There has been a fair few headers scored in the Euro games so far , with that in mind I`m on a Hail Mary in the four matches . Btts a header in each game .

Czech Rep . v Denmark 22/1

Knockout now and point to note is games have no extra time and go straight to penalties.
Early goal will be useful as the longer it’s scoreless the more likely teams will be looking towards penalties after the hour.
These are equally matched and have scored against similar stature teams here and failed against the likes of Brazil, Argentina, and Uruguay.
Most recent h2h in Paraguay last October finished in a ‘desmond’ do similar will be nice but unlikely.
Prediction draw, obviously 1-1 or 2-2 😁

I said it not long ago,,,Italy will be hard to beat and should go all the way.
3 days ago
Italy at 4/1 have got to be the favourites for the euro’s now.Solid at the back,unbeaten in over 30 matches,and can score goals but putting Belgium to bed on Friday wont be easy,but i can see a penalty shoot-out with the azzuri triumphing
