The Turkey vs. Portugal Euro 2024 odds suggest Roberto Martinez’s men will win on Saturday, June 22. It’s not just because they have one of the most well-rounded rosters in the entire tournament. It’s also because they’re very motivated to win this game.
It’s because the Turkey vs. Portugal game will probably decide the winner of Group F, which will play against the 3rd-placed team from Group A, B, or C, in the Round of 16. Meanwhile, the runner-up will play against the winner of Group D, which will probably be France.
In simple terms, the Turkey vs. Portugal game is a battle for avoiding France in the first stage of the knockouts. So, who will win this battle?
Before Betting on Turkey vs. Portugal Euro 2024 Game
Many pundits believe Turkey could be the dark horse of the 2024 Euros. These guys have already won one game, but it happened against a debutant at the Euros. The team in question is Georgia, who put on a real good fight against Turkey. Nevertheless, the Turks showed resilience and got themselves a 3:1 win.
The same day, Portugal beat the Czech Republic 2:1. This game too was a real war, which Portugal was losing at one point. But Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates kept on pressing and creating chances, which eventually led to the equalizer and the winner.
We say “eventually” because Portugal scored the winning goal in the second minute of the stoppage time.
Turkey vs. Portugal Offshore Odds & Pick
Portugal struggled a lot against the Czechs in the opening round of the Euro 2024. However, there’s an explanation for that. The Czech Republic “parked the bus” in front of their goal, especially after going 1:0 up. It took time and effort for Portugal to tear down their defensive wall.
Turkey probably won’t employ the same tactic as Chechia. These guys do best when they attack, which is what they’ll probably try to do on Saturday. The bad news for them is that this strategy can’t work against such a mighty opponent as Portugal. In fact, we doubt any strategy would work for Turkey against this opponent.
Pick: Portugal
