Euro 2024 Betting Tips: Thommo’s got a 15/2 shout in his Croatia v Italy bets

Thommo reckons the Euro 2020 winners will bounce back from their defeat against Spain.

Croatia v Italy Betting Tips

Italy to Win
Both Teams to Score
Italy to Win 2-1

 

Italy edged past Albania in their opening group game before losing 1-0 against Spain last time out. A win for the Euro 2020 winners will see them reach the knockout stages.

Croatia need a win to have any chance of getting out of the group after picking up just one point from their opening two Euro 2024 outings. Can Luka Modric and Co. get the job done?

We sat down with Paddy’s mate Phil Thompson to get his thoughts for this Group B face off…

Monday, June 24: 20:00 – Croatia v Italy
Euro 2024 Group B match – Leipzig
TV: BBC One/RTE2

This is a tough one to call! Italy are sitting on four points, while Croatia only have one point after two games.

Croatia will be kicking themselves after conceding a 95th-minute equaliser against Albania last time out. Their backs are against the wall and it makes you wonder whether the legs in midfield have gone.

 

Italy only had four shots – and one on target – in their defeat against Spain but they should have enough quality to bounce back and get the job done against Croatia.

I’m backing Italy to Win but it could be a tight affair. I’m expecting Both Teams to Score so my prediction is Italy to Win 2-1.

For a Bet Builder, I’ll go with Italy to Win, Both Teams To Score, Gianluca Scamacca to Score, Federico Chiesa to have 1 or More Shots on Target and Andrej Kramaric to have 1 or More Shots on Target for Croatia.
