Our expert tipster has cast their eye over the 17th of June set of Euro 2020 fixtures and has picked a treble that could set you up with a nice profit heading into the weekend!
It’s going to be a fascinating day of fixtures in the European Championships, with all six of the teams competing facing tricky matchups after their opening games.
Ukraine v North Macedonia is one of those games where both sides will have sat down, assessed the pool that’s out there and thought ‘this is a winnable one’. North Macedonia would be making history if they managed to get three points here, but Northern Ireland were able to do it, in a big way, last tournament, so it’s absolutely not out of the question. What North Macedonia will need to do is slow the game down to their pace, and then use the element of surprise with some pace out wide to get the ball quickly from their box to the other as Ukraine are committing bodies forward. They’ll have to be patient, and try to frustrate Ukraine, which they may well be capable of in the right circumstances. Both sides will probably need another result to consolidate the importance of this one, but it’s still a vital match due to the new structure.
After that we get two absolute bangers, starting with Denmark v Belgium. Everybody knows what they need to about the Belgian national team, but the Danes could very much have their number. Romelu Lukaku and Kevin De Bruyne both got on the scoresheet when Belgium beat the Danes 4-2 last time out in the Nations League, but we’ve learned that Denmark are more of a team that rises to the occasion than a natural powerhouse. This one could prove very, very interesting.
And we close out the day in Amsterdam with the Netherlands hosting Austria. Expect beautiful football on both sides here, and dare we say, a few goals? This is a toughie to call, but it could be match of the tournament.

Ukraine and North Macedonia draw – 53/20
Perhaps it’s wishful thinking, but we really think there’s a game here between these two sides. North Macedonia know what they need to do, the blueprint is there, and it’s up to them if they want to execute it or if they will take the beating that is expected from a team who on paper are far superior.
Belgium to beat Denmark – 21/20
De Bruyne coming back from injury is the story of this game, and unfortunately for the Danish side, we’re going for the Manchester City star and his side here.
Netherlands draw with Austria – 16/5
There will be goals here, but we are finding it too hard to split, despite bookies only giving Austria a 5/1 chance at getting a massive win against the hosts.
