After securing a 2.6 winner last night, Kev is looking for another odds in the Portuguese capital against success.
« Portugal are generally strong defensively, but they conceded a goal against Luxembourg in qualifying for the World Cup and Israel have some talented attackers. »
Everything comes to whoever is waiting and Bolivia grabbed a late penalty to secure a 1-1 World Cup qualifier draw against Chile and us a odds-versus-winners. With a scream of « Vamos! » and a feather in our step, we are traveling to Portugal because Fernando Santos’ European champion is playing his last warm-up game against Israel.
Portugal has a difficult group at Euro 2020 (France, Germany and Hungary), but it always is one of the teams who want to fight for the title again. Coach Santos will try to bring a dose of pragmatism to an incredibly talented group of attacking players and that balance between attack and defense will be key to their tournament. With Cristiano Ronaldo, Andre Silva, Diogo Jota, Bernardo Silva and Joao Felix, Santos must find a way to maximize all offensive potential without compromising defensive stability. The recent 0-0 draw against Spain didn’t exactly inspire him – Spain had plenty of chances in Madrid and Alvaro Morata hit the bar with a late chance.
Portugal have kept seven clean sheets in their last nine home games, and that is probably why Both Teams To Score is trading at 2.789 / 5 here, but I think Israel may cause a problem or two. PSV veteran striker Eran Zahavi has just had a strong season and scored in a 3-1 win against Montenegro recently. Manor Solomon scored in that game too and caught the attention of Shakhtar Donetsk’s Champions League season.
Portugal are generally very solid on the defensive but conceded one goal in the last World Cup qualifier against Luxembourg and leaked twice against Serbia in the same games in March. Pre-tournament friendlies can throw up some weird score lines with players careful to avoid injury and I just think 2,789 / 5 is too high a price to pay for BTTS here.
