So, just a year later than expected, Euro 2020 is upon us. After a year of losing our freedoms, our locals and, worst of all, Lord Bendtner, it’s time to say that enough is enough and get back to winning ways.

NEW TO PADDY POWER?
Friday 8pm: Turkey v Italy
BBC One and BBC iPlayer
Over 2.5 Goals
Only one Euros opener since 1988 has served up few than two goals and with the calibre of forwards on show, we’re bound to see plenty of action and Over 2.5 Goals in the delayed 2020 curtain-raiser.
Burak Yilmaz to Score Anytime
He’s 35 but could well be a sleeper choice for the Golden Boot. Yilmaz bagged 17 goals for Lille this year in their Ligue 1 triumph and will receive excellent service from the likes of Lille teammate Yusuf Yazici and AC Milan ace Hakan Calhanoglu. I’m backing Burak Yilmaz to Score Anytime.
Burak Yilmaz to Have 2 or more shots on target
A joy to watch this season in the Ligue 1, averaging 1.86 shots on target per 90 minutes, the only high-profile names averaging more shots on target per 90 minutes than him are Harry Kane (2.05) and Kylian Mbappe (2.46). It would be rude not to include Yilmaz to Have 2 or More Shots on Target in our Bet Builder for this game.
Both Teams to Score
Both teams are in great goal-getting form with Turkey scoring 12 goals in their last five, and Italy failing to score just once in their last eight. It would be a surprise if we didn’t see Both Teams Scoring on Friday night.
Lorenzo Insigne to get an Assist
Insigne creates opportunities no matter who is around him, with 12 assists this season at Napoli. Let’s hope he can provide the goods for Italy with another Assist.
