⚽️ EURO 2024: England v Switzerland
After a thrilling Round of 16 escape, England (2.28) is set to take on Switzerland (3.95) in the quarterfinals on Saturday. England, which needed a late equalizer from Bellingham to get past Slovakia, continues to look flat offensively this entire tournament. Up until Bellingham’s stoppage time equalizer, England had scored just two goals its previous four matches.
Switzerland on the other hand, is coming off a momentum building Round of 16 match where it netted two goals to eliminate Italy from the tournament. After already having earned a key draw against host nation Germany in the group stages, Switzerland has shown they can hang with the best of them.
There’s nothing we’ve seen over the last two weeks of this tournament that makes us think England will be able to get anything going over Switzerland; give us Switzerland in a gritty 1-0 match.
⚽ Copa America: Uruguay vs. Brazil
Two of the top South American favorites face off in Las Vegas on Saturday night in what looks to be an epic quarterfinal showdown. Uruguay (3.0) tore through the group stage, with nine goals in three matches, and an impressive victory over the USA to eliminate the host nation.
After a slow start vs Costa Rica in the opening round of the group stage, Brazil (2.7) found its groove with 4-1 thumping over Paraguay but settled for a draw vs Colombia. Despite coming in 2nd in its group, Brazil still boasts the second shortest odds to win Copa America. This is the match where Brazil shows up, and reminds the rest of the field why they’re a top favorite with a 3-1 win over Uruguay

🎾 Wimbledon
13th seeded Taylor Fritz faces off against 24th seed Alejandro Tabilo on Saturday at Wimbledon. Fritz enters the match as the favorite (1.26) with momentum, after winning at Eastbourne just two days before the start of the Wimbledon.
However Tabilo is entering the match on a hot streak too, having won the Mallorca Championships just a week ago. Fritz is 8-1 on grass this year and has won 96% of his service games so far. He’ll be too much to handle for Tabilo. Fritz in three sets is the play.
