France vs. Belgium prediction
Best Bet: Both teams to score - no (-137)
France was the pre-tournament favourite heading into Euro 2024 but ended up losing out on Group D to Austria.
But it wasn't due to a lack of defence.
Les Bleus gave up just one goal in the group stage to Poland's Robert Lewandowski from the penalty spot, outside of open play.
Defence has been a bright spot for France for quite some time now. This bet has cashed in 11 of its last 15 games.
Part of that is also the lack of offensive firepower many expected from Kylian Mbappe and Co.
The side has only scored two goals (one penalty and one own goal) which is rather unimpressive considering the talent that is present on the roster.
Belgium has been a weird case as well but underperforming has sadly been the standard for this country over the last decade.
An offence that was held scoreless during two of three matches during group play cannot be trusted against France.
Across the last two major international tournaments (Euro 2024 and 2022 World Cup), this ticket has cashed in every Belgium game.
Much to be credited to its defence which has conceded only three goals across those six games.
Key stat: This bet has cashed in seven of Belgium's last eight contests.
Pick made at 11:50 a.m. on 06/30/24.
