Turkey v Romania

Suggested bets: Romania +1.25 (min odds 1.88) & Under 3 Goals (min odds 1.83)

Romania look underrated for this tie. Turkey can be inconsistent — capable of dominant performances but also of turning in quieter displays — and in a playoff scenario they may be content to protect a narrow lead rather than chase an open game. Romania showed their quality by beating Austria in the group stage and are well structured defensively. Backing Romania on a +1.25 handicap gives a cushion if Turkey nick a narrow win, and pairing that with under 3 goals reflects the likelihood of a tense, low-scoring affair where Turkey prefer to control rather than press for multiple goals.

Wales v Bosnia & Herzegovina

Suggested bets: Wales -0.75 (min odds 1.92) & Over 2.5 Goals (min odds 2.01)

Wales have shifted to a more attacking approach recently and carry strong offensive options into this match — players like Harry Wilson, David Brooks and Brennan Johnson offer goal threat, and the 7-1 win over North Macedonia shows their capacity to score. Bosnia & Herzegovina can be vulnerable at the back but are capable of finding the net themselves, so this looks like a contest with goals at both ends. Wales on -0.75 covers a narrow win for the home side while the over 2.5 captures the expectation of an open, higher-scoring match.

Poland v Albania

Suggested bets: Albania +0.75 (min odds 1.94) & Under 2.25 Goals (min odds 1.83)

Albania set up very defensively and recent results show low-scoring patterns — 12 of their last 15 competitive games contained two goals or fewer. On paper Poland should be favourites, but Albania have shown they can frustrate stronger sides (they beat Serbia in the group) and may be very hard to break down in Warsaw. A +0.75 handicap gives protection if Albania lose by a single goal, and expecting under 2.25 goals aligns with Albania’s disciplined, compact approach.

Ukraine v Sweden

Suggested bets: Ukraine +0.25 (min odds 1.88) & Under 2.25 Goals (min odds 1.90)

Sweden are missing key attackers and are in patchy form; injuries to players like Alexander Isak and Dejan Kulusevski weaken their threat. The match is in a neutral venue (Valencia), which tends to suppress goal expectations and makes tight contests more likely. Ukraine have vulnerabilities but on +0.25 you’re protected from a narrow defeat while keeping exposure to a draw or win. Given the context and recent results, a low total goals market is also attractive for this game.

Czechia v Republic of Ireland

Suggested bet: Republic of Ireland +0.5 (min odds 1.93)

This pick is largely an anti-Czechia wager. Czechia arrive under pressure — recent coaching changes, off-field stories and squad disruption (Tomas Soucek’s omission and reported internal issues) reduce confidence in their performance. Ireland have momentum after a dramatic win in Hungary and should be competitive in a close match. A +0.5 handicap gives a safety net if the Irish lose by a single goal while still profiting on a draw or win.
