Euro 2020 Betting Tips
France are the worthy bookies favourites in the Euro 2020 betting odds given the fact that not only are they the current World Cup holders, but they have a great depth of talent available at present. This might also be Belgium’s last chance of glory with their current squad.
There are question marks over several of the traditional powerhouses of European football in Germany, Spain and Italy, but it would be unwise to write any of them off.
The Netherlands have a number of talented youngsters coming through and could be worth a small Euro 2020 bet, while defending champions Portugal also seem to have some quality coming through the ranks and can still count on a certain Cristiano Ronaldo.
Then of course we have England, with Gareth Southgate putting a clear emphasis on youth that is currently paying dividends. With the final being played at Wembley, England might just be worth a punt in Euro 2020 betting.
