Wednesday's Euro 2024 best bets come courtesy of Group F.
The pregame narrative: Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal are in action against Georgia and I'm expecting a Portuguese win following a first-half lead. Elsewhere, I'm betting on offence in a showdown for the second spot in Group F.

Euro 2024 best bet
Best Bet: Portugal halftime/fulltime (+102)
Portugal was dominant through Euro 2024 qualifiers, going 10-0-0 with a +34 goal differential.
That has continued into the tournament as Cristiano Ronaldo and company have started with a 2-0-0 record. I think they have a prime opportunity to end group play flawlessly.
Georgia has put up a valiant effort so far, showing flashes of offensive brilliance created by its young talent.
But the squad's defensive side seems to be lacking. Giorgi Mamardashvili, who plays his club soccer in La Liga, has provided some brilliant goaltending — but there's only so much the 23-year-old can do when the team has given up 49 shots (20 on target) through two games.
An offence like Portugal's should be salivating.
Roberto Martinez's squad beat Turkey, 3-0, last match and converted all three shots on target. Even if starters rest because of the nation's guaranteed top spot in Group F, I still believe in the talent.
The bench is littered with players from many of Europe's top clubs, which is more than Georgia's starting 11 can even claim.
Key stat: This bet has cashed in five of Portugal's last six wins.
Quick pick
Czech Republic/Turkey over 2.5 goals (-117): Two nations go head-to-head for the second spot in Group F.
Turkey was held without a goal against Portugal but the team created 11 shots (three on target) against a very strong side.
Czechia didn't fare too badly against Portugal either, scoring a goal and cashing this bet. Then again, the Czechs only converted once on 27 shots (12 on target) against Georgia.
But that was a masterclass in goalkeeping and I think both these sides have some goals left in them.
This bet has cashed in six of the last seven matches for the Czech Republic, as well as four of Turkey's last five.
