Juventus vs Wydad Casablanca
John Pentin; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Juventus approach this tie full of confidence after a commanding 5-0 dismantling of Al-Ain, where their attack flowed with fluidity and their defence looked imperious. With Kolo Muani, Yildiz, and Conceição all getting on the scoresheet, they appear finely tuned across all departments.
Wydad, on the other hand, offered little to no threat in their 2-0 defeat to Manchester City. Even when the English champions were down to ten men, the Moroccan side couldn’t muster a meaningful attack. It’s a worrying sign, especially now they face a Juventus team who finished Serie A with the second-best defensive xG in the division.
There’s a gulf in both tactical structure and squad depth here. Juve won’t need to overexert themselves to dominate proceedings. Expect a disciplined Italian side to smother Wydad’s limited forays forward and take their chances with minimal fuss.
Best bet – Juventus to win without conceding
Juventus to Win to Nil | |
6/5 - odds when tipped | |
Reasoning Juventus were ruthless in their opening match and look far too strong for a Wydad side who lacked ambition or quality against Man City. The Italians' compact defensive shape and lethal forward line make this a mismatch, and backing Juve to keep a clean sheet alongside a win offers top value. |
Denmark U21 vs France U21
Wolfgang Shotten; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Both nations have lit up the U21 European Championship with thrilling football and clinical finishing. Denmark’s group-stage games have averaged four goals per fixture, while France have produced double figures in total goals across their three outings.
William Osula has been Denmark’s standout performer, contributing to five goals, and he’s been instrumental in their counter-attacking transitions. France, meanwhile, have been equally lethal, putting four past Poland with ease, and Djaoui Cissé looks increasingly influential as the tournament progresses.
Neither side is set up to sit back. Denmark will rely on pace and direct play, while France dominate possession and use intelligent off-the-ball movement to pull defenders out of shape. With both attacks firing and defences giving up chances, this should be a high-scoring affair.
Best bet – Over 2.5 goals
Over 2.5 Goals | |
4/7 - odds when tipped | |
Reasoning Goals are almost guaranteed when Denmark face France. Both teams are averaging over three goals per game and boast in-form forwards. With no clear favourite and attacking intent on both sides, expect an open contest filled with chances and entertainment. The overs line feels like a strong angle in this fixture. |
Real Madrid vs Pachuca
Steve Harrington; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Real Madrid stumbled in their opening draw against Al Hilal, but showed enough promise, particularly through Rodrygo and Garcia, to expect improvement here. Xabi Alonso’s side lacked sharpness but remain composed in possession and dangerous in transition, even without Kylian Mbappé.
Pachuca, though spirited, conceded 17 shots to Salzburg and struggled defensively, particularly on set pieces and wide overloads. They may look to frustrate early on but will eventually be stretched by Madrid’s superior movement and midfield control.
Despite a few key absentees, Los Blancos should dominate territory and scoring chances. Expect them to take control after a cautious start and press for goals against a Pachuca side who have looked brittle when defending with numbers behind the ball.
Best bet – Real Madrid to score in both halves
Real Madrid to score in both halves | |
10/11 - odds when tipped | |
Reasoning Madrid underwhelmed against Al Hilal but will find more space and freedom against Pachuca’s disjointed backline. With Rodrygo and Vinicius Junior combining well and Garcia threatening through the middle, goals in each half feels achievable. A sharper, more urgent display is likely, and Real should improve on their opening showing. |
USA vs Haiti
Tyler Morris; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
The United States have begun the Gold Cup with solid, if unspectacular, displays. More importantly, they haven’t conceded yet. Matt Freese has been virtually untested, and the Americans have only allowed two shots on target across two group matches.
Haiti, meanwhile, are misfiring. Despite plenty of effort, they couldn’t score against Saudi Arabia even with 13 shots and missed a crucial penalty against Trinidad. Their attacking structure looks disjointed, and with Jean-Kevin Duverne suspended, they are even lighter at the back.
USA are unlikely to take risks but will still control proceedings through midfield. Expect them to strike once or twice and see the game out comfortably. Haiti’s lack of composure in front of goal and the hosts’ disciplined shape suggest the Caribbean side won’t get many sniffs.
Best bet – Both teams to score: No
Both teams to score: No
| |
11/10 - odds when tipped | |
Reasoning The USA are yet to concede in the Gold Cup and have allowed minimal chances. Haiti have struggled to find the net, even when dominating possession. With a controlled US side unlikely to leave gaps, and Haiti lacking precision, a clean sheet win for the hosts looks the most logical play.
