Hi Friend,


After the first round of the Euros, one or two things have stuck out while one or two teams have done so too.

Italy have looked really good. Two games, six goals, both 3-0 victories and they won them both in style.

Wales have been a bit of a surprise package already picking up 4 points while Switzerland have been the disappointment - only picking up a point from their first two games.

No other side has played twice apart from GROUP A which is why I wanted to get this review out to you yesterday.

The group involving England looks there for the taking for England especially after the 1-0 over Croatia, although the Czech Republic did look good in their victory over Scotland - albeit Scotland had 17 shots!

Russia were poor in game 1 against Belgium, but much better last night against Finland.

Spain were disappointing, but still performed well. The disappointment comes in their lack of cutting edge players to score goals when they actively didn't select one or two of these players for their squad (Rodrigo being an example).

In the group of death, France beat Germany at a canter and they are definitely tournament favourites.




PRE-TOURNAMENT BETTING REVIEW:

Anyone who followed the 22 page guide I sent out before the tournament - it's all looking very good.

The winners

The odds we picked in terms of the 3 winners (Portugal France and Belgium),

FRANCE down from 6.20 to 4.90
BELGIUM are still in the same odds range of 8.40
PORTUGAL down from 10.00 to 8.80


Top Goal Scorer betting:

We backed HARRY KANE and ROMELU LUKAKU to be tournament top goalscorers.

Kane didn't start well and failed to score, although I think we know a goal or two will be just around the corner while Lukaku superbly grabbed a brace first game.

LUKAKUs odds have dropped from 7.80 to 4.1 which is huge
KANE has gone slighly up from 8.2 to 11.5 but a goal will change that quickly.

A Lukaku goal today will change it and push his odds down to the 3.50's at least.


To Reach The Final betting - the bets for this will be the same proportional movement to the winners considering all 3 were the same.


Group Betting:

We picked Italy to win the group - This is basically done and dusted. All Italy need to do is not lose in Rome against Wales.

Belgium are also a victory away from winning the group.

So it looks like both of these selections are about to win.
