  • Euro 2008: Italy to win but it will be in vain
    Netherlands v Romania As expected Marco van Basten has taken the opportunity to rest several of his first-teamers for the final group game against Romania. The Dutch have won both their games, they’ve won the group and have earned the right to give a few of their star performers a break. Whether you think it’s in the spirit of fair play is another matter,...

  • Euro 2008: Germany Certs to Win Tonight
    Austria v Germany It’s virtually unthinkable that Germany can lose out to Austria and end their Euro 2008 campaign in Vienna tonight. Messrs. Ballack and Co. might as well not return to their homeland if they cannot see off the tournament co-hosts for they will be savaged by a baying German press and public. Germany only really need to avoid defeat to go through...

  • Euro 2008 Bet: Netherlands could ‘let’ Romania Win
    Two fantastic results against World Champions, Italy and World Cup runners-up, France means the Netherlands have earned the right to eliminate the Italians and the French by getting beat against Romania. The Dutch top Group C by virtue of their 3-0 and 4-1 wins over Italy and France respectively. They face Romania in the final round of group matches on Monday and a win...

  • Euro 2008 Bet: Croatia v Germany
    Croatia v Germany Portugal cemented their tag as one of the tournaments favourites last night with an emphatic 3-1 win over Czech Republic. Spain have already sparkled in Group D and the Dutch blew away the Italians to lay down their Euro 2008 marker. Germany simply got the job done in their opener against Poland but have a chance tonight to prove why they’ve attracted...

  • Euro 2008 Bet: Switzerland v Turkey
    I am having a nightmare! The balance is down to just £68.01 after 4 goals in the last game sunk my latest bet. It’s a long way back and £5,000 now looks out of the question but I’m gonna keep going and see if the tide will turn sooner rather than later. Both Switzerland and Turkey are desperate for a win after losing their opening ties against Czech Republic...

  • Euro 2008 Bet: Spain v Russia
    To say yesterday’s bets were a disaster is a bit of an understatement. Betting on more than 2 goals in the bore-draw between Romania and France was bad enough, but to then see the Italians get humped by Netherlands 3-0 was rubbing salt into the wounds. Both bets sunk without trace and my balance shrunk from £317.67 to just £79.17! But I’m not about to give...

  • Euro 2008 Bet: Netherlands v Italy
    Netherlands v Italy Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. How boring has Euro 2008 been so far? That last game would be enough to have football stopped. One team didn’t really want to win the other didn’t look capable. We’ve had 5 games so far and just 6 goals. We’ve seen 10 teams and 6 of them have failed to score. There’s been few bookings, no red...

  • Euro 2008 Bet: Romania v France
    Romania v France Less than 15 minutes to kick-off and I’m still undecided about how to bet in this one. Aaaarrrgh! Bookies would have you believe that it’ll be a walk in the park for France. Les Blues are best price at 87/100 (Canbet, Centrebet), whereas Romania are surprisingly backable at 9/2 (SkyBet). Don’t forget this is a French team who only secured...

  • Euro 2008 Bet: Germany v Poland
    Germany v Poland In 15 games between these two Poland have never won. That’s the size of the challenge facing Leo Beenhakker’s men when they take on tournament favourites, Germany, tonight. But, did you know that Germany haven’t won a single match at the Euros since 1996? So which run is going to come to an end? The smart money is obviously saying that...
