England v Slovakia Betting Preview – Euro 2016, 20th June
There’s still an interesting set up in Group B because the only thing which has been settled so far is that England are guaranteed a top three spot. That’s it, so things are still wide open here and there will be pressure coming in from a winner of the Wales v Russia match as well. England need a point to secure progress in the top two, while they need to win to confirm top spot. Slovakia could finish top with a victory and a failure of Wales to beat the Russians. With so much up in the air still, this could get pretty interesting still in Euro 2016 Group B.

England v Slovakia Betting Tips
Group B has turned out to be as exciting as was hoped for. England will be guaranteed a top three finish whatever happens, but would naturally like to top the group, which would do wonders for confidence and momentum. It would be a bit of a blow if they didn’t push on from that win over Wales to take a victory in this one. England have superior fire power out of the two teams here and Daniel Sturridge and Jamie Vardy, who came up with the goals against the Welsh are likely to be drafted into the starting line up. Those two, along with Kane are trading at a price of 6/5 in the anytime goalscorer market against Slovakia. Both teams have scored in six of England’s last seven games so they may again need their firepower to cover up some cracks that they have at the back.
The last time that England and Slovakia met, England won 4-0 and that is three wins in a row that England have posted over the Slovakians. After the pressure was relieved with that late win over the Welsh, this is where England fans and backers would like to see them really push on and take back to back victories in the Championship, putting in a commanding finish. But there could be life in this game and it may not all be plain sailing over the 90 minutes at all because Slovakia are in the play off picture and they can’t afford to suffer a loss. If they do lose and Russia beat Wales in the other game, then it is Slovakia who could be going home. Slovakia go into the sat on three points, level with the Welsh and just the one behind England, so the best way to guarantee their own progress is to beat England and that could make this interesting.
They have the energy to take on the English defence, but the thing about Slovakia is that they are just as capable of turning up and playing a stinker as they are to play a lively, energetic positive game. They are in decent form though and both teams to score in this game is trading at a price of even money which should have some big appeal. Star player Marek Hamsik scored a brilliant winner against Russia and he is a 3/1 quote in the anytime goalscorer market for the game. They will probably create some good chances in the game and they may well play their part in this game going over 2.5 goals is a price of 11/10. They’ll be keen to test Joe Hart with some direct free kicks no doubt.

England v Slovakia Predictions
The safest option on this one is to look for goals. This should be a lively and entertaining finish to the Group B action from these two. It’s a good setup for the game and England should be winning the match given the extra quality they have but they will get periods of pressure from the Slovakians most likely. England will probably still get the maximum points but look for them to concede again.
