This group is wide open with all 4 nations on 3 points although Ukraine (-2) are at the biggest disadvantage in terms of goal difference.

Ukraine 3.75/1 Draw 32/10 Belgium 13/20

Ukraine were aa big disappointment in losingg their opening match 3-0 to Romania but they showed character to put themselves back in the mix with a 2-1 win over Slovakia last time out. At 1-0 down at half time they were staring elimination in the face but second half goals from Shaparenko and then Roman Yaremchuk 10 minutes from the end of normal time turned things around.

Goals from Youri Tielemans (2 mins) and Kevin De Bruyne (80 mins) in a 2-0 win over Romania last time out put Belgium back in contention for a place in the knockout rounds. They were playing catch up after finding themselves on the wrong end of a shock result in their opening match against Slovakia. They lost the game 1-0 and will be cursing their luck with a number of chances created and missed and Lukaku had 2 goals chalked off by VAR.

The Verdict:

Normally I would have no hesitation in going high on goals here but the way the group stands it could be a nervy evening.

Ukraine will be hard pushed to keep Belgium out though and surely Lukaku is due a change of luck.

Slovakia 2.15/1 Draw 2.14/1 Romania 2.65/1

Ivan Schranz gave Slovakia an early lead against Ukraine but they failed to press home their advantage and Ukraine hit back in the second half to win 2-1. First time out Slovakia caused one of the biggest shocks of the tournament when they beat Belgium 1-0. Schranz needed just 7 minutes to open the scoring for Slovakia and they rode their luck as the match wore on they held out for a famous win

Romania were spirited but very much second best in their 2-0 defeat to Belgium in their second outing. They were very much the underdogs for their opening match against Ukraine but ran out comfortable 3-0 winners. Nicolae Stanciu punished Ukraine for a defensive mistake in the first half and Razvan Marin tried his luck from distance in the second to make it 2-0. Romania didn't stop there and Denis Dragus added the third just before the hour mark.

The Verdict:

This looks really tricky to me but you can see why the draw is trading on the short side as if we see a winner in the Belgium game a point each could well see both sides through.
