Euro 2020: June 23 Matches |
Group E is intriguing. This match has Slovakia as the biggest underdog of the entire group stage. However, Slovakia is ahead of Spain (3 points to 2). Should Spain be favored? Sure. By those odds? Erm.
Spain must beat Slovakia to go through. And they could still go through as group winners if Sweden lose (or draw even depending on gd). Also, Spain would qualify as a third place finisher with a draw and a Poland loss.
Slovakia need a draw to advance. They can finish atop the group with a win and a Sweden draw or loss.
This match takes place at 12pm ET. In the US, it can be viewed on ESPN.
Slovakia +1400| Draw +525| Spain -455
Ok, Poland is favored. But their path to advancement is complicated af. Deep breath:

France has already qualified. If they win, they advance in the top spot. If they draw, they also advance in first if Germany do not win.
For Portugal, a draw assures they advance. A win can see them top the group if German do NOT win. Portugal could also qualify in third so long as they don’t lose by more than 3 goals AND Hungary lose.
This match takes place at 3pm ET. In the US, it can be viewed on ESPN.
Portugal +190 | Draw +185| France +132
Hungary is the biggest underdog now of the group stage.
Has Germany done enough (or Hungary done so little) to justify that line? No. Here’s what is on the line:

Germany looks to win Group E on Wednesday when they host bottom-of-the-group Hungary in their final group-stage match.
Germany looked like a completely different team against Portugal than one we saw lose to France 1-0. The Germans came out with much more pace and aggressiveness in their attack, and it paid off in the form of four goals against a side that conceded only six goals during Euro 2020 qualifying.
With a win and a France draw or loss, Germany would win Group F and set up a very favorable draw in the knockout stage.
Hungary got a massive result against France in their second match, drawing the defending World Cup champions 1-1 at home. They needed to hold on for dear life in the final 25 minutes of the game after Antoine Griezmann leveled the match in the 67th minute.
It’s pretty simple for Hungary. They need to win to qualify for the knockout stage, which means they have a tall task in Munich on Wednesday.
