Belgium rank amongst the favourites for this whole tournament with the bookmakers listing them as the third lowest-priced side. You’ll find them trading at a very solid price of ¾ to get the outright result against Russia. This is a team that will definitely see themselves having a genuine chance to win this and their young squad can further etch their names into European football history.
The Russians are always an organized side that can punish you if you’re making mistakes and they can be backed around a 23/5 listing with several major European bookmakers. The draw here sits at a 3/1 margin and there’s plenty of punters who might think Belgium could struggle against a Russian side that they may not know too much about.
One has to assume that Kevin De Bruyne is going to view Euro 2020 as a chance to establish himself in a way that several other global footballing legends have failed to do by dominating both club and international competitions. As Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo enter the twilight of their careers, major international results have eluded them.
That’s not the case with Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne, who was also just voted PFA player of the year after City’s English Premier League winning season. He will likely be the major focus of this tournament along with Erling Haaland and Jadon Sancho.
