Super Six for England as they ease past Panama

Free Flowing Uruguay Fancied to Comfortably Beat Japan

Anyone who saw Uruguay open up their Copa America campaign with a fantastic 4-0 victory over Ecuador will no doubt have been impressed. They had a great flow about their game, winning the ball back in midfield before allowing their attacking players to do their thing and create plays. That all resulted in four goals on the night and to be honest, that was a fair reflection of the game, Uruguay were very impressive and look genuine contenders for the trophy this summer.

Colombia Set to Make Light Work of Qatar

Colombia caused the first shock of the Copa America 2019 with a win in their opening game against Argentina. Now they face someone who they should beat, in Qatar, and have to handle being a favourite and show that they can dominate games.

There was no dominance shown in that first game at all, in fact, it was a game that Argentina completely dominated and should have won. They had chances in the first half to take the lead but couldn’t find a way past the resilient at times Colombian defence.

Should big clubs be playing much smaller clubs in their pre-season friendlies?

Brazil Fancied to Build on Strong Copa America Start

Brazil are strongly fancied to win the Copa America this year as hosts and perhaps one of the few things that could beat them in this tournament is not handling the pressure that is on them. After the first game, while it wasn’t perfect, I am expecting to see them settle better and show their real class when they come up against Venezuela on Tuesday night.

The hosts went off to boos after a goalless first half against Bolivia on the opening night,

Germany Crash Out of 2018 World Cup with Defeat to South Korea

Germany U21 Face Denmark U21 In Euro U21s Championship

As if we didn’t already have enough international football to scream and shout about this summer, another tournament is starting to grab the attention of the masses: and that is the European U21s Championship. We all know that Europe is the biggest hotbed for world class football throughout the world, and as such, this competition is pretty important. For most of these kids, it serves as the final step up before they attempt to start playing for their senior national team.

Bohemians Look a Solid Bet to Pick Up Home Win

Uruguay And Ecuador Clash In Copa America

The Copa America got underway with Brazil vs Bolivia last night, as the Brazilians were able to take their first step towards what they hope will be a successful tournament. Beyond that, though, there are many, many other top nations in the running to try and lift the trophy in just a few short weeks. We’re going to be looking at two more of them today, as Uruguay and Ecuador prepare to square off. With the two nations being located at opposite ends of South America,

Croatia favourites to beat Iceland and lead the table with maximum points.

Brazil Host Bolivia In Copa America

International football is back in more ways than one, as we bridge the gap between the domestic seasons. The Women’s World Cup and Africa Cup of Nations, alongside the European Championship qualifiers and Nations League, have certainly received plenty of attention as of late. On top of that, however, you’ve also got Copa America coming up. It represents the very best of the Americas in more ways than one, and with the tournament commencing shortly,

Brazil Kick Off Copa America on Friday Night

The premier South American football tournament, Copa America, kicks off on Friday night in Brazil. The hosts will take to the field first and play a game they should win with ease against Bolivia. The home nation appear to have a great chance of winning the tournament this time around and that is without their star man Neymar, who will miss out through injury.

For all of their talent, the question with Brazil is can they handle the pressure?

Mallorca Fancied to Gain Advantage Against Albacete

Mallorca take on Albacete in the second of the Spanish Segunda playoff games on Thursday night. This is the first of two legs, taking place in Mallorca and the teams will fight it out again a few days from now in Albacete to decide the winner. Whoever does that will play in the final, taking on either Deportivo or Malaga.

Albacete are coming into the playoffs on a poor run, falling from 2nd down to 4th in the table after a string of late defeats.

In Form Malaga Value in Spanish Playoffs

The Spanish playoffs are still taking place, with a place in La Liga up for grabs to the winner. On Wednesday, Malaga travel to Deportivo with both clubs looking to progress. The winner of this two legged tie will take on the winner of the game between Mallorca and Albacete in a winner takes all game, with the winner of that becoming the 20th and final team to make it into the La Liga line up for the 2019/20 season.

Wales Value Away at Hungary in Qualifiers

Wales head to Hungary on Tuesday in the hope of picking up a win from their last of two games during this Euro 2020 qualifying period. They come here on the back of a 2-1 loss to Croatia, but there was plenty to like there against far superior opponents and playing Hungary gives them a much better chance of victory. The Welsh are a good side on their day, and look good value here to go to Hungary and come away with three points.

Spain Tackle Sweden In Euro 2020 Qualifiers

The European Championship qualifiers are in full flow, as teams up and down the continent attempt to secure their qualification for next year’s tournament. Courtesy of the Nations League there’s a good chance we’re going to see a few unlikely faces in the 2020 edition, but even with that being the case, there are still some regulars that will be popping up too. Two such examples of high profile regulars are Spain and Sweden, both of whom will feel pretty confident about their chances of qualifying as they prepare to go head to head tomorrow.

Champions league 2018-19 Starts Here for Many Teams

Portugal Face Netherlands In UEFA Nations League Final

We’re into the full flow of international football for the summer, and that’s an exciting position for a lot of fans to be in. Sure, some are going to miss seeing their team on a week to week basis, but this also gives us a chance to get a taste of last summer’s World Cup once again. Obviously, it’s not quite going to be on the same kind of scale which is to be expected,
