Euro 2016 Tips: Group B Betting - Slovakia To Shine
Underrated as debutants, Slovakia have defeated Spain and Germany in recent times and arrive 8 matches unbeaten.
With pre-tournament talk in the UK inevitably dominated by England and Wales it’s no real surprise that one team in Group B is really slipping under the radar.
Slovakia are considered the outsiders - the only team odds-against to qualify - but there’s no justified reason for it. They qualified with 22 points, more than any other runner-up, and that included a famous victory over defending champions Spain.
The underdogs have kept their momentum going since then and will arrive off the back of an eight match unbeaten run which includes a recent 3-1 success in Germany.
Jan Kozak has built his side around the brilliance of Napoli playmaker Marek Hamsik who chipped in with five goals in qualifying and created many more.
The Slovakians love to counter-attack and being unfancied in all their Euro 2016 matches will really suit them. WilliamHill offer 2/1 on them finishing top two and that’s a bargain.
