Prediction
England 2, Ukraine 0
Money line (ML)
“LEAN” to ENGLAND (-250) despite the seriously high price. There’s no way I’d suggest taking anything else in this match. However, there are better bets favoring England.
On BetMGM, you can get England to tie the first half and win the game at +290. England hasn’t conceded a goal this entire tournament, and 3 of its 4 goals have come in the second half.
England’s skill and pace are what’s important. It’ll wear Ukraine down, and win this game in the second half. That’s why the +290 odds yield more risk, but is the better side.
Ukraine has a defense that will be scored on as it has given up a goal in each of its four games, even to North Macedonia. England doesn’t get going to the second half, even in “easy” games.
Over/Under (O/U)
BET on the UNDER (-135) because this is a pretty solid price to pay to bet on an English defense that has yet to give up a goal this tournament. On the other hand, England’s offense hasn’t been great, scoring just 3 goals in 4 games.
Ukraine scored 2 goals in three of its four games and lost the other one to a now-eliminated Austria side 1-0.
