This one is easily shaping up as one of the best betting fixtures of the tournament with no real amount of space between the two teams. It’s a great match for betting if you’re a neutral punter as well - deals are out there and the betting volume on these match-ups is going to be very high even if it is being played on a Monday.
Right now, you’ll find Germany getting the distinct edge from the bookmakers with a 2.15 price tag right now. It will be especially interesting to see how the market moves as we get closer to the actual kick-off and many might see Germany beat down to an even money price by the time the national anthems are playing.
Portugal are an interesting side in that they have some really massive talismanic players, but they also have some lower-profile players who can hold their own against anybody on the planet. They are generally viewed as an attacking flair team, but they have a style of play to their defensive midfielders and defenders that can be easy to miss but is very much quality stuff for those with a keen eye.
You’ll find Portugal trading at a 3.60 price tag right now and that could rise once Germany starts taking more volume as the match gets significantly closer.
It’s probably not a huge surprise that Cristiano Ronaldo is the favoured first goalscorer in this one with a 6.0 price tag that puts him right alongside Miroslav Klose. There are an awful lot of potential match-winners on the field in this match-up so you might find that elusive first goal being scored by somebody who has come up for a corner or is out of position.
Two high-powered offenses can oftentimes cancel each other out so it will be interesting to see how this one pans out.
