Euro 2016 Betting Tips for an Each-way Top Goalscorer Bet

Euro 2016 betting tips for the top goalscorer market where our tipster has looked at three outside bets who could be in with a chance of winning the top scorer accolade.

 

With only playing a maximum of seven games if you reach the semi-finals of the competition the top goalscorer is normally decided on just a small number of goals scored. If you look back at Euro 2012 for example the Golden Boot was tied by six players on only three goals each. The competition saw 76 goals in total by 54 different players and one own goal. That pretty much means anyone has a chance at taking the golden boot.

 

As we are looking at outsiders here with bigger odds it makes more sense if all explained. All teams will play three games in the group stages, if a striker can grab a goal a game, or even two goals in one game they are already giving themselves a great chance of winning it. If you look, the chances of a German player scoring a brace against Northern Ireland in the group stages is quite likely.

 

Realistically you want your players’ country to make it to the Euro 2016 semi-finals, at this point it means they will have played seven games (the final or third place play off) and thus given themselves more games to score in. With it normally being settled on a small number of goals this isn't a necessity as it only takes one player to have two/three good games at any point in the competition to get some goals under his belt.

 

The favourite in the latest Euro 2016 top goalscorer odds is currently tied between Ronaldo, Muller and Griezmann at the odds of 8/1 with different bookies. I want to pick up some higher odd players who have an outside chance of challenging these shorter odds and landing us some big profit.

 

Euro 2016 Top Goalscorer Tips

 

Artiz Adruiz – Spain

Top scorer odds – 40/1 888Sport.

Firstly, I am going to look at Artiz Aduriz of Bilbao. At the age of 35 he has finally broken into the Spanish national team and with good reason too. Bilbao have been scoring for fun this season in La Liga and Aduriz is a big reason why, he has managed 36 goals this season in all competitions which is a breathtaking stat. Spain are travelling without Diego Costa and it is rumored that they will start with Vasquez up front with Morata the man who will be relied upon behind him. If Spain are struggling and need to take a new approach in games or feel they need a more mature, experienced head up front then Aduriz will be given the nod, especially with this season behind him I can guarantee he will get decent game time.

Mario Gomez – Germany

Top scorer odds – 40/1 888Sport.

Secondly, the player I am going with another experienced head for my second Euro 2016 betting tip and Mario Gomez. The big German tied for the top goalscorer award at Euro 2012. Gomez has been on loan at Besiktas this season and once again has been banging in goals for fun, he has managed to get 29 goals this season in all competitions which has earned him a place in the Germany squad for the European Championships this summer. Germany have named Thomas Muller as a striker as well and we all expect him to be the main choice this time around. With games coming so thick and fast, and Germany having a really good chance to play five, six or even seven games this summer he will need to be rested and that is when Gomez will have the chance to step in and make a name for himself. The boss will trust him knowing his impressive form this season and his goal scoring record last time in the euros, he will definitely get a good amount of game time and its almost certain he will make use of it by banging in a goal or two.

GOMEZ TOP GOALSCORER – 40/1 888port.

 

Jamie Vardy – England

Top scorer odds – 50/1 Coral.

Finally, my third and final Euro 2016 prediction for top goalscorer is one of the stars of the Premier League season. As an optimistic England fan I can look no further than Jamie Vardy. Vardy has become a household name in England this season by helping Leicester City win the Premier League and taking home the Golden Boot at the same time. He has 27 goals to date in all competitions and with a few friendlies left he may even add more. He has scored three goals for England so far, admittedly all in friendlies but it means he has continued his blistering form of late and he has been showing the boss how well he can link up with the likes of Kane and Alli thus pushing for a place in the England starting 11 for their match against Russia. There has been big debate about who should start up front for England at Euro 2016 but Kane and Vardy have shown in a few friendlies now how well they complement each other with both of them scoring a few goals. He will get a good amount of game time this summer and it wouldn't be right as an optimistic England fan not to include him.

VARDY TOP GOALSCORER – 50/1 Coral.

 

Don't forget most bookies offer each way betting on the top goalscorer, they normally offer them at 1/4 of the odds meaning that Vardy coming in the places could get you odds of 12.5/1. 

 

Be sure to check what odds the bookies are offering and top how many places because they will all offer different place amounts and odds. We recommend Coral to bet on your Euro 2016 top goalscorer tips – you get 1/4 the odds for the first four places.
