Best Football Betting Tips Today: Italy v Wales
Football betting tips today kicks off with Italy v Wales from the European Championships.
The Italians are already through to the next round, having won both matches against Turkey and Switzerland by a 3-0 scoreline.
Italy stay in superb form and looked to carry a huge attacking threat.
They are now on a ten-match winning streak with a clean sheet in each of those victories.
It has been just one goal that Italy have conceded in their last fourteen international fixtures.
They have won three of their last four against Wales as well (L1), scoring at least two goals on two of those three occasions.
A draw will be enough on the day to see Italy win the top spot.
Wales produced a tremendous display to claim a 2-0 win over Turkey in their second group stage match at Euro 2020.
That added to the point that they had reduced against Switzerland in their opener.
Wales need a draw in the fixture to guarantee a top-two finish.
They can’t finish lower than third. Four of the six third-placed teams will go through to the next round.
The Welsh are W3 D2 L2 in their last six fixtures, the defeats happening against Belgium and France.
It’s those results against stronger nations that leaves them a little vulnerable in this one.
Italy to win to nil at 5/4

Football Betting Picks Today: Switzerland v Turkey
Football betting for today looks at the final Group A match from Euro 2020.
It’s all to play for in this one.
Switzerland has to get a win to have a chance at automatic qualification. They are sat on one point from an opening draw against Wales.
It was then a 3-0 hammering at the hands of Italy that they took, barely laying a glove on the Azzurri.
They find themselves three points behind second-placed Wales, who face Italy in the final round of group stage matches.
So they are playing catch up, however, three points could see them finish as one of the best third-place finishers.
Turkey have looked very short of quality and have conceded five unanswered goals now in the tournament.
Victory for them could see them move through to the knockouts as one of the best third-placed teams at the expenses of Switzerland.
To be fair, neither of these nations have looked very good at the tournament.
Turkey have won three of their last four against Switzerland and may be worth an underdog punt.
Turkey to win at 4/1

Football Betting Tips for Today: Hartlepool v Torway
Today’s football betting tips moves on to the National League back on the domestic front.
Hartlepool and Torquay meet for a place in League Two next season.
The fixture is being held at Ashton Gate in Bristol, to obviously avoid a clash with Euro 2020 matches at Wembley.
In the playoff quarterfinals, Hartlepool claimed a 3-2 home win over Bromley at Victoria Park.
That sent them through to the semi’s where they snuck a 1-0 road win at Stockport.
Torquay entered straight into the semi finals because of their league finishing position.
They had a lot of work on their hands, needing extra time at Plainmoor to record an eventual 4-2 win over Notts County.
During the course of the regular season, the two of them traded away wins.
But the longer head to head form sides with Hartlepool who are W3 D1 L1 in their last five against Torquay.
As for the respective current form of both, Hartlepool looks the slight favourites.
They have won four of their last five games now.
Torquay in contrast, while hard to beat, have drawn their last five fixtures (90 minutes).
It may just be worth siding with Hartlepool to dig out a narrow win
Hartlepool to win at 8/5
