Not the best start to the quarterfinal round for us, as we went 0-2 on average and high risk bets from France vs. Morocco. Let’s turn it around today, shall we?
SPAIN VS BELGIUM
Euro vs Euro matchup in the 2nd quarterfinal, but these teams aren’t as familiar with one another as it would seem. As a matter of fact they have only played once since 2009 and it was a 2-0 Spain victory in a 2016 friendly. Spain has picked up the pace since drawing with Cape Verde in the opening match and have yet to concede a goal at the World Cup. Belgium is coming off a 4-1 trouncing of the United States. Big time step up in class for the Belgians, and Spain is not going to make the same mistakes as the USA made.
- Low risk parlay toss in: Spain to advance (-320)
- Average risk parlay: Game over 2.5 goals AND Lamine Yamal 1+ shot on target
- High risk parlay: Spain moneyline AND Yamal 2+ shots on target and Mikel Oyarzabal to score or assist (+320)
