Ready for some chaos, July 2nd's knockout round is about to hit harder than a hangover after bottomless margaritas. Let's break down these matchups with some smart picks and some wild possibly batshit crazy bets.
12 PM EST: Romania vs. Netherlands The Dutch Massacre
First up we've got Romania versus the Netherlands at 12 PM EST. Let’s be real Romania stands no fucking chance in this game. The Dutch are going to steamroll them. Xavi Simons is going to run riot and the Romanians will wish they’d stayed home. Now for the picks. Here’s something new one smart bet, and one wild bet.
Smart Bet:
Netherlands to win by -1.5 at +115
Wild Bet:
Xavi Simons to score and the Dutch to be leading at half at +450
3 PM EST: Austria vs. Turkey The Underdog Uprising
Next at 3 PM EST we have Austria versus Turkey. Honestly how the hell are Austria such heavy favorites? They’re good but not that good. I’m taking the Turks happily at +333. For our wild bet we’re getting really stupid: Arda Guler to score anytime and Arnautovic to have a shot on goal at +650. This is the kind of bet you place when you’re a few beers deep and feeling invincible.
Smart Bet:
Turkey moneyline at +333
Wild Bet:
Arda Guler to score anytime and Arnautovic to have a shot on goal at +650
Parlay Payouts:
Smart Bet Parlay: +784
Wild Bet Parlay: +4000
Let's get lucky. Place your bets, grab your drinks, and buckle up for some football action that’ll either make you a legend or a lunatic.
