With Euro 2024 groups starting to take shape and teams knowing what they need to do to progress to the next stages of the competition, the pressure is well and truly on.
This Friday, Slovakia – buzzing from their win over Belgium – will take on a Ukraine side looking to bounce back from an opening loss to Romania. Both without a point yet, Poland and Austria will battle it out to get back into contention and in the main event, the Netherlands take on France in a clash that may decide who tops the group.

Ukraine to beat Slovakia and Mykhailo Mudryk to score @ 9.50
After a lacklustre performance against Romania in their opener, Ukraine will be looking to bounce back in spectacular fashion against Slovakia. A draw may not be enough for them as they look to qualify for the tournament’s knockout rounds, so expect them to come out swinging. And with such a plethora of attacking options, a better, goal-filled performance is to be expected. One of their brighter sparks last time out was rapid winger and Chelsea star, Mykhailo Mudryk. All of their play came through him and his pace is a lot to handle, even for the world’s best defenders.
Austria to win to nil against Poland @ 3.47
Both teams were unlucky to lose their first games with Poland succumbing to a late winner from the Netherlands and Austria losing to an unfortunate own goal vs France. Each side looked solid and organised and at the end of the day, they lost to superior teams. But that is not to say they do not have it in them to produce match-winning performances. Austria pushed Les Bleus right to the end, keeping their attack at bay and applying pressure of their own. Were it not for the aforementioned own goal, the match very well could have ended in a deadlock.
France to beat the Netherlands and Antoine Griezmann to score first @ 7.85
With Kylian Mbappe set to sit this one out after suffering a broken nose against Austria, it is likely France will look to the ever-reliable Antoine Griezmann to provide some attacking threat. Les Bleus struggled to penetrate an organised Austria team who were content with a draw bit fortunately for them, the first-half own goal secured victory. Netherlands will look to take the game by the scruff of the neck which should allow for a more fluid match and an improved number of scoring opportunities for France, whose lighting-quick transitional play may be allowed to really flourish.
