Denmark only need a draw in Dublin to qualify from Euro 2020 Group D and recent history suggests they can hold the Republic of Ireland. These teams have met five times over the past couple of years and four of those games have ended in stalemate, with the Danes winning the other. More...

England have qualified from Euro 2020 Group A in impressive fashion, but they were given a scare by Kosovo when these teams met in Southampton. Gareth Southgate's side ultimately prevailed 5-3, but not before their opponents had created a favourable impression with some enterprising play. More...

Argentina lost out to Brazil in this year's Copa America semis but have won two of their last four Superclasico de las Americas meetings. La Albiceleste head into the latest renewal of this fixture in good shape and could prove a value bet to come out on top again in Saudi Arabia on Friday evening. More...

England have already hammered Montenegro 5-1 away in Euro 2020 Group A and are priced at prohibitive odds to do the double over them at Wembley on Thursday. The Brave Falcons have failed to score in their last four qualifiers and are currently without star striker Stevan Jovetic due to injury. More...

Belgium and Russia have dominated Euro 2020 Group I in impressive fashion, but we just feel the Red Devils are a class apart at present. They prevailed 3-1 when these sides met in Brussels at the start of this pool back in March, since when both teams have rattled off seven straight victories. More...

Scotland salvaged some pride from a poor Euro 2020 qualifying campaign when thrashing San Marino 6-0 but may have to settle for a draw when visiting Cyprus. Steve Clarke began his reign with a 2-1 victory over Cyprus at Hampden in June, but has been hit by injury problems ahead of the reverse fixture. More...

Wales must win their last couple of Euro 2020 Group C qualifiers to have any chance of a top-two finish and can start off by beating Azerbaijan in Baku. The hosts are bottom of this pool, having picked up just one point from six fixtures, although they have scored in all three home matches so far. More...

Michael O'Neill will be hoping to sign off his tenure as Northern Ireland boss on a high but faces a daunting test when the Netherlands visit Belfast. O'Neill is still in charge despite securing a switch to Championship club Stoke and will at least oversee this game and a trip to Germany in Euro 2020 Group C. More...

Switzerland must go for a win when taking on the Republic of Ireland in Geneva and are fancied to get their Euro 2020 qualifying campaign back on track. The Swiss are four points behind Ireland and Denmark, but have a game in hand and finish off with matches against Georgia at home and Gibraltar away. More...

England will be determined to quickly exorcise the demons of Friday's loss in the Czech Republic when visiting Bulgaria. The Three Lions tamely surrendered a decade-long, 43-match unbeaten run in European and World Cup qualifying matches in Prague but are expected to get back on track in Sofia. More...

Northern Ireland have a good record against the Czech Republic and are worth backing to grind out a draw in Prague. The Green and White Army picked up a point at Generali Arena during qualifying for the 2018 World Cup and have gone four head-to-head clashes without defeat. More...

Scotland must try to salvage some pride from a miserable Euro 2020 qualifying campaign when hosting Group I whipping boys San Marino. The Scots suffered a fourth straight defeat in this pool when losing 4-0 away to Russia on Thursday, but their opponents were crushed 9-0 by Belgium on the same night. More...

Wales have work to do to qualify from Euro 2020 Group E but can keep their hopes alive by drawing with table toppers Croatia on home turf. The visiting World Cup finalists impressed when slamming Hungary 3-0 in Split on Thursday but have not travelled too well during this campaign. More...

Netherlands were almost caught napping by Northern Ireland but will hopefully be more on the ball when visiting Belarus in Euro 2020 Group C. A fully focused Dutch outfit should be able to secure a smooth success in Minsk, against opponents who have failed to score in their last four home games. More...

Republic of Ireland will face Georgia for the seventh time in six years when travelling to Tbilisi for Saturday's Euro 2020 qualifier and have a great head-to-head record. The men in green have won five and drawn the other of their previous encounters, including a 1-0 Dublin victory back in March. More...

England have adopted an attacking approach in claiming four straight Euro 2020 Group A wins and can continue that trend when visiting the Czech Republic. Gareth Southgate's side beat the same opponents 5-0 at Wembley and have since scored 14 times versus Montenegro, Bulgaria and Kosovo. More...

Emile Heskey won 62 international caps for England as a powerful front man and performed with distinction for several Premier League clubs. In an exclusive interview with bwin, the former Liverpool, Leicester and Aston Villa forward discusses some of the hot topics in the game. More...

Germany entertain Argentina and a home win is expected in a rematch of the 1986, 1990 and 2014 World Cup finals. Die Mannschaft should be in good spirits following the recent Champions League exploits of their Bundesliga teams and have a youngish squad full of energy and enthusiasm. More...

Scotland's hopes of qualifying for Euro 2020 via Group I are all but over, so they should be able to play with freedom when visiting Russia. Their hosts are on course to finish second after posting five wins and a loss to leaders Belgium from six fixtures, including last month's 2-1 triumph at Hampden. More...

Wales look set to fight it out with Slovakia and Hungary for second place behind Croatia in Euro 2020 Group E and this is a crucial trip to Trnava. The Dragons prevailed 1-0 when these teams met in Cardiff back in March, but were clinging on at the end after Daniel James had given them an early lead. More...

After suffering a post-World Cup slump, England Women are fancied to return to winning ways when hosting Brazil in a Middlesbrough friendly. The Lionesses enjoyed a 2-1 victory when these teams met in the SheBelieves Cup in America in February and prevailed 1-0 in Nottingham last October. More...

Scotland's hopes of qualifying for Euro 2020 are hanging by a thread after Friday's loss to Russia and they face another daunting test against Belgium next. The Red Devils prevailed 3-0 when these teams met in Brussels and have rattled off five straight wins in Group I, with 15 goals scored and only one conceded. More...

Brazil seemed a touch careless in the first half of Friday's 2-2 draw with Colombia but will hopefully be more focused when facing Peru in Los Angeles. The Selecao beat Los Incas twice when hosting this summer's Copa America, romping to a 5-0 victory in the group stage and then prevailing 3-1 in the final. More...

Mexico have gone nine games against Argentina without a win but may be a value bet to buck that trend when they meet in a San Antonio friendly. El Tri have named an experienced squad for this contest, which takes place a week ahead of their Independence Day, and are coming off a 3-0 triumph over USA. More...

Wales boss Ryan Giggs earned a welcome reprieve from recent criticism with Friday's win over Azerbaijan and will be keen to build some momentum when hosting Belarus. The visitors also ended a frustrating run of results by beating Estonia in a Euro 2020 qualifier and both teams should be in good spirits. More...

Bitter rivals Germany and Netherlands are set for another blockbuster battle in Hamburg but we just favour the hosts in this Euro 2020 qualifier. Die Mannschaft have already defeated the Dutch 3-2 in Amsterdam in Group C and that should allow them to play with more freedom here. More...

Brazil look worthy favourites to follow up this summer's convincing Copa America success with a friendly triumph over Colombia in Miami. Both sides are without some key players, but the Selecao still have enough star names present to make them an attractive betting proposition. More...

Argentina beat Chile in the third-place play-off at this summer's Copa America and are again fancied to come out on top in Friday's LA friendly. La Albiceleste have prevailed in four of the last five meetings between these teams and have not lost to La Roja in normal time for eight encounters. More...

Senegal got the nod in our pre-tournament Africa Cup of Nations preview, but Algeria have already beaten them 1-0 during the pool stage in Egypt. With both teams coming through dramatic semi-final victories, everything points towards this being another close encounter in our book. More...

Tunisia and Nigeria suffered heart-breaking semi-final defeats at the Africa Cup of Nations and Wednesday's third-place play-off will be a test of their resolve. The Super Eagles have tried to play more enterprising football throughout the tournament, though, so the feeling is they will still be up for this. More...
