The second day of the Euro 2024 playoffs will begin with the 1/8 final match England - Slovakia. One of the main disappointments in the quality of the game will be against a team that few expected to see in the playoffs. Betting on England's victory is too dangerous, in my opinion, let's try to find a more suitable option.
England took first place in their group, scoring only 5 points with teams such as Slovenia, Denmark and Serbia. The vast majority of football fans were unhappy with the overly cautious, toothless, pragmatic England team, in which every player is a top star. But those who have been following Gareth Southgate for many years know that he has never played any other football with the national team. So the question naturally arises: "England took 1st place, what's wrong?" And what's wrong is that the team can simply crumble at the first serious opponent, since they are not used to not controlling the course of the game. But I don't think that the Slovaks are the team that can stop the English, it will be much more difficult for them later.
Slovakia showed very good football in the first match with half-dead Belgium, but already in the second game with the far from best Ukrainian team they lost, which showed the problems with recovery and frequent matches for the veterans of the Slovakian national team. Therefore, I expect that in the first half we will see little action, England will slowly look for their chances, and the Slovaks' physics will allow them to defend well and may even try to snap back. It is also worth paying attention to the fact that the Slovakian national team has scored first in the first half for 5 matches in a row, so at least not to lose in the 1st half is a very good chance.
Sportwars.net forecast for the England - Slovakia match, 1/8 finals of Euro 2024: 1st half X2 (Slovaks will not lose in the first half), odds 1.88.
Correct score prediction (regular time): 0-0, odds 7.8.
