Match Facts, H2H & Predictions 08.09.2020 19:45 Belgium vs Iceland News Kevin De Bruyne, the Manchester City midfielder, have missed the Denmark match because of the birth of his child, but has now joined the Belgium squad. Michy Batshuayi was self-isolating for 14 days and is now an option for Tuesday, while Yannick Carrasco has left the squad. Thibaut Courtois is now available and Simon Mignolet will continue in goal. Iceland is missing Kari Arnason and Sverrir Ingason after their 1-0 defeat to England on Saturday and Jon Gudni Fjoluson will probably fill one of the spots. Other unavailable players are Kolbeinn Sigthorsson and Hannes Thór Halldórsson.

Iceland lost against England 1:0 on Saturday and they are now missing even more players in the upcoming match against Belgium, so it’s safe to say that Belgium are the favourites here. BetPlusWin Suggestion: Home Team Win Over 2.5 goals Both Team to Score – NO Belgium 3:0 Iceland 19:45 Sweden vs Portugal News Dejan Kulusevski is expected to replace Sebastian Larsson. Jan Olof Andersson probably won’t make a lot of changes to his team, given they played well against France. After Portugal’s 4-1 win against Croatia, Bruno Fernandes is a doubt here because of the birth of his child. Cristiano Ronaldo had a toe injury and missed the victory, but if he is available to play he will probably lead the line.

Bruno Fernandes might miss the match and that may impact the European Champions, but even so, Portugal are the favourites here. BetPlusWin Suggestion: Away Team Win Under 2.5 goals Both Team to Score – NO Sweden 0:2 Portugal 19:45 Denmark vs England News Even though Denmark lost 2-0 to Belgium at the weekend, they aren’t expected to make changes for the upcoming match against England on Tuesday. Phil Foden and Mason Greenwood supposedly broke protocol and invited girls back to their rooms after their win against Iceland, so they will miss the match. Jack Grealish could’ve had his debut here, but was injured and missed some sessions, so he might only be fit for the bench. Trent Alexander-Arnold is expected to start on Tuesday, with Kyle Walker suspended. If James Ward-Prowse or Declan Rice need to be replaced, Mason Mount and Kalvin Phillips will start in central midfield on Tuesday.

England, on the other hand, started with a win over Iceland. This is the two nations first meeting since 2014, where the late Daniel Sturridge’s goal secured a 1-0 win. BetPlusWin Suggestion: Draw Under 2.5 goals Both Team to Score – YES Denmark 1:1 England 19:45 France vs Croatia News Didier Deschamps decided to go for a 3-4-1-2 formation when they won 1-0 against Sweden and he is expected to keep this setup. Steven N’Zonzi and Anthony Martial are pushing for start here and Ferland Mendy might start at left wing-back. Zlatko Dalic will probably make changes to his XI, given that Croatia lost 4-1 to Portugal last week. Bruno Petkovic might be rewarded with a start here.

Croatia lost 4-1 against Portugal and they also have it difficult here, so France are the obvious favourites.
