Prior to Euro 2012 there was only one thing we knew going into Denmark vs Portugal – Denmark would be going into this with a loss. Portugal would most likely be as well, but you just never knew how Ronaldo or Nani would perform, and if they could create magic against Germany.
Yet here we are. Portugal looked extremely uninspired vs Germany, while Denmark are coming into this on the back of an incredible 1-0 win over the Dutch. Let’s look at the Denmark vs Portugal Live Betting Odds:
What’s interesting about this game is if Denmark win, they are almost assured qualification. But it’s a very tricky bet and I think the bookies have the odds right on this one. Denmark beat Holland but they were lucky to do so – Holland were extremely poor when it came to finishing.
To be honest with you, looking at the Denmark vs Portugal Match Betting Odds I just don’t see the value there in any bet. Not Denmark, not Portugal, and not the draw.
I think we have to look at additional markets, to get value for this game. Half-Time/Full-Time for example: I much prefer Portugal-Portugal at 21/10 odds than the odds for them to win. I think if Portugal are going to win this game, they will dominate it right from the off.
So my #1 bet for this game would be Portugal-Portugal – you can get 21/10. I think this bet presents much better value than just betting Portugal outright.
I also don’t hate Portugal -1 at 13/5. Again, I can’t see it being Portugal 1-0. If they score, they will counter and they have lethal players for the counter so they could get 2 or even 3 goals.
Those are the only two bets I currently see value on with Portugal and Denmark.
Prior to the tournament, I wrote a Denmark vs Portugal Betting Preview. This is below:
Denmark vs Portugal takes place on Wednesday June 13th, and is the 3rd game in Group B. By the time Denmark vs Portugal takes place, both teams will already have a clear idea of how they stand in the groups.
It’s very probable that both teams will have losses going into this match, with Denmark taking on the Netherlands and Portugal taking on Germany. That’s going to make this an interesting game, with both teams really needing a win.
This is the best place for Denmark vs Portugal Betting Tips. Lets look at the latest match betting odds for Denmark vs Portugal:
Denmark vs Portugal Live Betting Odds:
Now unfortunately, this really is a “placeholder” type page because it is being written before the first group games take place. If Portugal get something against Germany, then they could be a lot more confident going into this game. While if they lose, they may fear the act of desperation which will cause them to make mistakes.
At the end of the day though, I think no matter what the first results are – there’s value in Portugal winning this game. I also don’t think we will see the odds change – unless Portugal destroy Germany, and Denmark get destroyed by Holland. In which case, the odds will change drastically in Portugals favour.
Whatever happens – this is an absolute must-win game for Portugal. There’s no two ways about it – they absolutely NEED to win this game, out of all 3 of their group games. Which is why I like Portugal to win. With the special bet available, I recommend betting Portugal to win
Even Portugal-Portugal for Half-Time/Full-Time is a good bet at 2/1 odds Portugal really need to be wiping the floor with Denmark.
With this being a game where both teams are going to be going for it, I think we also need to be looking at the overs. Over 2.5 goals in this game is 23/20 . This is NOT a game for the timid. This is a game where both teams are going to be attacking, and both teams will most likely need the win. I really like Over 2.5 here because neither team has a solid defense or goalkeeper.
I’ll be back after the initial Group B games with updated analysis and additional Denmark vs Portugal Betting Tips.
