GermanyEuroEuropean Championship Group F concludes on Wednesday night and Germany are firm favourites to clinch an automatic qualification spot when they take on Hungary in Munich.

 

 

 

Germany

 

Germany opened their campaign with a 1-0 defeat to France at this venue, the first time Germany had lost their opening match in the Euro finals but they got themselves back on track in some style at the weekend.

 

Had Germany lost to Portugal in their second outing they could well have been staring elimination in the face. They conceded the first goal early doors before clawing their way back to lead 2-1 at half time and they went on to claim the win 4-2. There was a touch of fortune with Portugal twice putting through their own net whilst Harvertz and Gosens were also on target.

 

Coming into the final round of matches France have 4 points, Germany and Portugal have 3 and Hungary have 1. Germany now have their noses in front of Portugal and given the Portuguese take on France in the other match in this group the Germans are in a strong position.

 

In the outright betting Germany's odds to top this group are around 9/10 and to win the tournament they can be backed at 11/2, joint second favourites behind

France.

Hungary

 

Group outsiders Hungary have played both their matches in front of capacity crowds in Budapest. They lost the first to Portugal 3-0, conceding all 3 goals from the 84th minute onwards and their chances of avoiding an early exit looked remote heading into their second match against France.

 

Hungary put in a tremendous shift against the World Champions, taking a shock lead on the stroke of half time through Attila Fiola. They were pegged back on 66 minutes and survived some nervous moments to claim a point which keeps them in some sort of contention.

 

Hungary will still to need to win this game to make the last 16 and in the betting to emerge from this group via any method they are trading at around 10/1.

 

 

The Betting

 

Germany are priced at around 1 / 5 to win the game with the draw at 6.25/1 and Hungary can be backed at around 14.5/1

 

A game of 3 goals or more is priced at 9/20 and it's 23/20 for both teams to score.

The Verdict:

 

After holding France you have to respect Hungary but they move from Budapest to Munich and this could be a bridge too far.

 

I fancy goals and will go for 3-4 in total whilst additional interest comes in at least one of those goals to be scored with a header.

 

Bets: Total match goals 3-4 at 5/4

Will a goal by scored by a header? (yes) at 15/10
