Betting Tips

Another game where the sportsbooks have odds that just don't make you want to bet on anything. You'll have to dig around to find more odds than simply betting on a win, loss or a draw. Betting on the correct score might be better and with a Russian team that can't seem to score combined with a good defensive team like Belgium, a 0-0 bore draw would be a great saviour so call the correct score and if you don't get it right, hope for nil nil score. That said Belgium still have great attacking forwards so if Belgium scores, expect Russia to open up their game a bit more to try to catch up resulting in possibly more goals. Besides most games of the tournament to date have often gone over 2.5 games. So we highly recommend betting Over 2.5 goals 11/10 odds, a great payout on a game that is surely to feature at least 3 goals.

Prop Bets Belgium vs Russia

Prop bets are certainly more interesting to bet on than just who will win or if there will be a draw. If you think you can pick the exact score then you got some interesting odds to choose from:
  • 2-1 Belgium win 15/2 odds
  • 2-0 Belgium win 15/2 odds
  • 2-2 draw 14/1 odds

Goal Scorer Odds

  • Lukaku goal 5/4 odds
  • Hazard goal 9/4 odds
  • Kerzhakov goal 13/5 odds
Until the starting lineup is announced, best to wait to see which strikers are playing for Russia. For Belgium you can bet on Lukaku and Hazard to start as they need them for their potent offense.
