A week of Euro 2024 qualification ties kicks-off tonight and with most nations embarking on the second half of their campaign there's lots at stake in the next six days.
In Group B the Republic of Ireland face a tough assignment at the Parc des Princes against World Cup runners-up who have yet to concede a goal let alone drop a point in qualifying so far.
It's hard to make any kind of case for Ireland especially with wonderkid Evan Ferguson pulling out through injury.
Elsewhere in the group the Netherlands, who finished fourth in the Nations League finals, host Greece. The Dutch squad features players that ply their trade at top clubs across Europe but it lacks the real star quality of yesteryear at the moment.
As for the Greeks, they’re often a tough nut to crack. It took a Kylian Mbappe penalty for the French to beat them 1-0 in Paris in June and of their eight defeats since the start of 2020 only Sweden have beaten them by more than a single goal margin.
Only eight of their last 23 competitive matches have seen Both Teams Score so it could be a low scoring affair Eindhoven where Under 2.5 goals is 19/20.
The Slovenians performed admirably in their Nations League campaign up against Serbia, Norway and Sweden. The finished third in the table to maintains their tier 2 status whilst forcing the Swedes down a level.
They’ve already drawn with Group H favourites Denmark and harbour outside ambitions of sneaking in to the qualification spots.
Northern Ireland are at a low ebb and have won just seven of 32 matches since 2020, those victories coming against San Marino, Kosovo, Luxembourg, Lithuania (x2), Estonia and Malta – hardly Europe’s leading lights.
The Slovenians were just shy of even money earlier yesterday but have been backed in to 3/4.
A straightforward Treble featuring France, Netherlands and Poland pays near enough even money at Bet365. The Poles haven't been ripping up any trees lately been but they're reasonably reliable against the smaller nations at home. Faroe Islands can be stuffy opponents but with the likes of Lewandowski, Milik and Serie A champions Zieliński to call upon the Poles should get the job done.

Poland – Faroe Islands
Poland -2.5 Handi @ EVENS
After disastrous away loss to Moldova (0:2 HT / 3:2 FT) Poland needs to bounce back at home with a convincing win over Faroe Islands.
Longshot:
Poland Win & Matty Cash to score @9/1 Unibet
Cash is one of those defenders who likes to run after the action and have a go on goal. He’s in good form now and Faroe Islands is not the toughest of opponents. The price for him to score with Bet365 is 4/1 so the 9/1 Unibet is offering is a great value.

Denmark v San Marino
Denmark to score a pen – 17/10 at Hills
San Marino concede quite a lot of pens, esp v the stronger nations, so this looks the only value bet in this match. I’ve no idea who takes the Denmark pens so taking goalscorer is far riskier.
17/10 seems decent enough for a Danish pen scored. GL with your bets.

Any tennis plays from MJT today?
No plays from me today. Both matches extremely difficult to call and could really go any way in terms of both the result and total games. Think the lines are set about right.
I would lean on Sabalenka -3.5 games but the odds are tight. She completely outplayed Keys at Wimbledon but both players have been playing so well to this point. In the other I think Gauff will edge it but I just worry about her nerves if the match is close. Muchova didn’t start that well but has been improving in each game. Will just be a watch from me tonight.
Just going through my NFL plays for the season which I will post shortly in case anybody follows the sport.
That’s refreshing to hear, MJT – no point at all having a punt if it doesn’t feel right ?
PS NFL thoughts would be great too ?
I’ve just posted my NFL season plays in the NFL Ante Post round up thread ?
