Portugal vs Wales Betting Tips and Predictions – Euro 2016

Portugal vs Wales predictions and betting tips for the first Euro 2016 semi-final with the best odds for our tipsters’ three bets.

 

Portugal vs Wales is the first game of the two semi finals and will take place on Wednesday at Parc Olympique Lyonnais which kicks off at 8pm.

 

Portugal vs Wales Predictions

 

Portugal head into the semi-final without winning a single game in 90 minutes so far. Every game has resulted in a draw at the full time whistle and they continue to show they are just about edging past every team they play. Maybe Ronaldo will thrive off the pressure and be a match winner for the Portuguese, but they definitely need to turn up and can’t under estimate Wales.

 

Not many would have predicted it at the beginning of the tournament but Wales getting to the semi-finals is an achievement in itself. The confidence within this squad will be sky high after thumping Belgium 3-1 and although they may not have the best squad on paper, the belief they have can count for much more than anything Portugal have at the moment.

 

It’s hard to put your money on Portugal at the moment as they continue to search for their first win of the tournament in regular time. Best price of 6/5 against this Wales team seems incredibly short from the bookies. A draw could be a good shout for our Euro 2016 tips considering the way Portugal’s results have panned out but surely that has to come to an end at some point. I think the Wales win is where the best value is after watching the performance against Belgium.

 

A team is always going to be much stronger than any individual and that’s what Wales are. I think the winner of Wednesday’s match will be down to who wants it more and at the moment it definitely looks like Wales do so my first Portugal vs Wales prediction is for Wales to win in 90 minutes. The best odds for this are currently 16/5 with Betfair and I’m backing them to do it.

Although the obvious choice for a Wales anytime goalscorer bet is Bale, I think Hal Robson-Kanu is incredible value for this one. His confidence has to be sky high after the incredible goal against Belgium and since then all the talk about him has been about Premier League clubs showing interest in singing him. There will be no better way to seal a move than to turn up with a goal in the European 2016 semi-final.

 

My second Portugal vs Wales prediction is going to be Robson-Kanu to score at any time. The best odds for this are currently 9/2 with Betfred which seems an amazing price for any striker.

 

OFFER: Anytime goalscorer bets still win if the goal comes in extra-time at Betfred and you get a £30 free bet when you open a Betfred account via this link.

 

Both teams scored in each of the quarter finals and I am expecting this trend to continue. Wales have shown they have goals in their squad and can shock any opponent. It’s hard to rule out Portugal scoring with the talent they have in the final third of the pitch, but as the game against Hungary suggested, they aren’t defensively solid.

 

My final Portugal vs Wales betting tip for the Euro 2016 semi-final is going to be both teams to score. Any game that offers above Evens for this market is always worth a punt and at Paddy Power you can get this at 5/4.
