Milan:
Euro2012, Group D: Sweden vs. France   6.50 4.20 1.50 Bet NOW

Sweden meet France on the last match of the Group D. France face a dilemma ahead of a game, as they have qualified for the quarter-finals by beating co-hosts Ukraine and they now need just one more point to be safe. Sweden are without chances to go through after squandering a one-goal lead to lose to England in their second match.

Sweden had the lead against both Ukraine (1-0) and England (2-1), but failed to get anything from the two games and they now enter the France game completely out of confidence. Despite the loss against England, nobody can deny that Sweden put up a good fight to challenge England. That is not to say that Sweden haven't shown some potential at the tournament, the lack of character proved to be a major issue. Their defence has been questioned throughout this competition and rightly so. The goals they have conceded have been very poor from a defensive point of view and I can't see them keeping France for very long.

Euro2012, 1. Quarter-final: Czech Rep. vs. Portugal   4.80 3.50 1.72 Bet NOW

The first quarter final of Euro 2012 will be between the Czech Republic and Portugal at the National Stadium in Warsaw. Both team lost their opening games, but have since rallied the troops and earned a chance to fight for one place of the semi-finals, where they will meet either Spain or France.

It was a bad start of Czech Republic at the beginning of the tournament, being thrashed 4-1 by Russia. Their second match's result was better beating Greece 2-1. That set up a crucial game against co-hosts Poland and they managed to spoil the party with a 1-0 win, knocking Poland out. Petr Jiracek scored the lone goal of the game; his two goals in three group games propelled the Czechs to the summit of group. Thanks to this goal they won the group A two points clear of Greece. The Czech's have surprised all and sundry with their run to the quarter-finals, especially given how they started the tournament. Their first match was catastrophic, with the Russian's running rampant, helped in no small part by the poor defending by the Czechs. They managed to bounce back though, with an amazing start against the Greeks putting them on course for a 2-1 victory, while their last gorup-match was their better games, they were tactic nas patient. As a reward Czech Republic faces an easier match-up from the Group of Death: group B runner-up Portugal.

Euro2012, 2. Quarter-final: Germany vs. Greece   1.35 5.00 11.00 Bet NOW

The second quarter final of Euro 2012 will be between Germany and Greece. Greece were the surprise winners of this tournament in 2004 and Germany have won it three times - in 1972, 1980 and 1996. The winner of this match will play in the second semi-final on 28 June 2012. Their opponents will be the winners of the England-Italy quarter final.


Germany are unbeatable. After winning all ten of their matches to qualify for Euro 2012, they followed this with an amazing performance in the „Death of Group B". They started with a narrow 1-0 win over Portugal, what followed the second win over Netherlands 2-1. In their final game, against the Danes managed a draw at half time after Lukas Podolski's 19th minute lead, but finally Lars Bender saved them. They were ruthless against Portugal, Netherlands and Denmark, so no wonder everybody expects them to reach the final without too many problems. Germany have a strong and stable first eleven without any need for changes. The 4-2-3-1 formation is a system everyone in the team is extremely comfortable playing. Germany's midfield and defence make sure they are the dominant team for large portions of games and that leaves Mario Gomez to do what he does best, finding spaces in the box and finishing chances.

Euro2012, 3. Quarter-final: Spain vs. France   1.80 3.50 5.00 Bet NOW

The third quarter final of Euro 2012 will be between France and Spain at the Donbass Arena in Donetsk. Spain are the defending champions, winning the trophy last time. The winner of this game will play in the first semi-final on Wednesday 27 June, also at the same stadium in Donetsk, where they will meet Portugal.

Spain could only draw their opening game against Italy (1-1), but rallied to demolish Ireland 4-0 in their second game. They were given a few scares in the final match against Croatia before Jesús Navas bagged a late win. Cesc Fŕbregas and Fernando Torres are their top scorers, both with a brace. Their best form player is Iker Casillas, who has allowed just one goal in his three matches to date. Currently Spain looks solid and are expected to bring their aggressive brand of football into the Quarter-finals against France.
