If you’re playing this one, here’s the real talk.
England (profik) at 3.27 to win feels tight given their inconsistencies in the ESB Volta (2x3 min.) this term. Their xG (expected goals) suggest they’re overperforming — analytics guys would fade them.
Portugal (bucho55)’s 2.9 odds tempts, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his cold streak.
The sharp players’ll likely poke at the Draw 2.12 — these derbies often play out tight, and pressure can stifle attacking flow.
