Football – Europe – Euro 2016 Betting Tips

Czech Republic find themselves joint bottom of Group D along with Turkey following their opening 1-0 defeat to Spain, and they now face a tough task of getting something out of a cock-a-hoop Croatia who secured all three points in their opening group game.

Czech Republic have now lost their last two competitive matches on the trot as they fell to an unexpected and surprise 2-1 defeat at home to Korea Republic in their final warm-up match ahead of the Euro 2016 finals, and they just don’t seem to have the quality in the squad they once possessed.

Arsenal midfielder Thomas Rosicky is now the wrong side of 35 years old, and has had limited match-time under his belt in the recent domestic English season, while the Czech’s look to be a little short of options up front.

Croatia took the maximum three points in their opening Group D game against Turkey, winning 1-0 thanks to Modric’s’ wonder goal where he showed superb class and technique to volley from outside the box.

It was a game which left nothing to the imagination and included some thunderous tackles in a hard-fought game where the Turks left nothing behind in the dressing room and were fully committed to the cause.

But Croatia stood firm, and their class and ability to hold onto possession for longer periods may well be the difference against Czech Republic this evening. Forwards Mandzukic and Perisic still remain the major goal threats up front for the Croatians.
