Italy vs Bosnia-Herzegovina

Italy have found themselves rejuvenated ever since the arrival of manager Roberto Mancini back in 2018, they’ve won 11 straight international games in a row, 10 of which came in the European 2020 qualifying campaign. Bosnia Herzegovina don’t tend to travel well which has been evident in recent fixtures, they’ve lost 5 out of their last 6 away international games so they will be looking to make amends in this seasons nations league but will face an uphill battle when they travel to Florence. With the likes of Serie A’s golden boot winner Ciro Immmobile in the squad for the Azzurri’s, expect Mancini’s men to brush aside Bosnia comfortably and extend their impressive 11 game winning streak to 12 games laying down a marker in group A In the process. Italy -1 handicap – 10/11 with Paddy Power.  

Netherlands vs Poland

It remains to be seen what life will be like post Ronald Koeman for the Netherlands, the 57 year old left his role as manager of the Dutch national team to take over struggling Barcelona. The departure of Koeman will certainly be a big blow, he turned around the Dutch fortunes massively throughout the last year or so, after the side was said to be on a massive decline when they failed to qualify for Euro 2016. Dwight Lodeweges will be caretaker manager for the foreseeable future. Poland will be missing the prolific and outstanding Robert Lewandowski for this clash which will be a massive blow for Poland, he has been given extra time off after his excursions in the Champions League final. Despite losing Koeman, the Netherlands squad will still be feeling good about themselves, they have shown massive improvements in the last year and one player who has been key to their success is Georginio Wijnaldum. The Liverpool midfielder has been instrumental for Netherlands, he has netted 7 goals in his last 6 matches, expect him to keep up his fine international goal scoring record and bag another one here with a rumoured move to Barcelona on the horizon. Georginio Wijnaldum to score anytime – 9/4 with bet365.  

Scotland vs Israel

The last time Scotland qualified for the Euros was in 1996, so they will see the Nations Leagues as a massive route to qualify for a major competition. There’s been really nothing to shout about for Scotland in the last 5 years or so, however just before COViD Steve Clarke’s men did manage to string together 3 consecutive wins on the bounce bringing about some positivity in Scotland. Israel finished second bottom in their European 2020 qualifying group and have lost 4 out of their last 5 games, they also have an abysmal away record; losing 9 out of their last 11 away internationals. With the likes of Tierney and Robertson both making the squad this time around expect them to have too much for a poor Israel side. Also expect the Scottish players to play freely with the game being behind closed doors subsequently not feeling the full force of 50,000 fans getting onto their backs. Scotland to score over 1.5 goals – Evens with Bet365.  

Norway vs Austria

This should be an even contest when these 2 nations square off on Friday. Norway have been on solid form of late, they’re unbeaten in their last 9 internationals winning 4 and drawing 5. They’ve been extremely solid at home, they’re unbeaten in their last 15 internationals at the Ullevaal Stadion, a run stretching back to 2016. Austria qualified for Euro 2020 before it was postponed, however they’re coming into this game off an embarrassing 1-0 defeat to Latvia. Norway will fancy themselves massively in this game especially with the impressive home record they boast, they have found the net in 15 straight home internationals and expect them to do the same in this fixture with the exciting Erling Braut Håland showing he’s ready for the big time. The 20 year old striker has only made 2 appearances so far for Norway and after establishing himself on the club scene, he will be looking to get off the mark internationally. Erling Braut Håland to score anytime – 13/10 with SBK. For example: open a new SBK account and bet £20 on Haland to score anytime: If he scores, you win £46 cash. If he doesn’t score, you get a £20 cash refund.

Slovakia vs Czech Republic

With Scotland and Israel the other 2 teams in this group, Slovakia and Czech republic will see this a big opportunity to qualify from this group as eventual winners. By analysing recent results from both these nations it’s fair to say both sides love to play expansive open football. 6 out of the last 8 internationals Slovakia have played has seen both teams score in each, on the other hand 6 out of the last 9 internationals Czech Republic have played has seen both teams score and over 2.5 goals in each. Expect both teams to go for it in this match as they look to stamp their authority in a winnable group. Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals – 8/5 with Bet365.
