There are strong stats and trends in this market that can help guide us to a winner, which are:
- Most of the goals scored come in the group stages
- Centre Forwards have dominated the award
- You need 3+ goals to place
- Plays for a team with a good chance of making it to the semi-finals
- Big prices (50/1+) have performed well
Harry Kane (11/2)
You're all aware of Kane's unbelievable stats and performance this season for Bayern, so I won't repeat them. England have a very soft group and a weak centre-back pairing, so they should be involved in some high-scoring games. He's on penalties, and everything should go through him as the focal part of England's attack, with many attacking options servicing him.
Niclas Fullkrug (66/1)
After it was announced that Kai Havertz would be the starting centre forward, Fullkrug doubled its price to a backable number. Like England, Germany have a very soft route to the final and a massive home advantage. There are two ways this bet can win. Havertz's finishing lets him down and forces Fullrug to step in as the starter in the tournament's latter stages, or he can get to three or four goals off the bench and get us an excellent place return. He has 11 goals in 16 appearances for Germany, which includes two in three sub-appearances at the 2022 World Cup. He leads Germany in xG per 90 over the previous two years at 1.70 - a small sample but impressive.
Michael Gregoritsch (100/1)
Austria were tipped as our tournament dark horses, which we think are good value to make it to the semi-finals, so there is some correlation with this selection. Gregoritsch had three goals in qualifying, which was second-best behind Sabitzer and tied with Baumgartner. Both are fine options, but I prefer Gregoritsch's underlying numbers of him leading the side in shots per 90, total xG, and xG per 90 over the past two years.
Robert Bozenik (500/1)
I like Group E to be a high-scoring group, and I think Ukraine and Romania are overrated. Slovakia play an aggressive 4-3-3 and face Belgium first, so they'll likely need to be on the front foot in the two remaining group games. Bozenik will lead the line for Slovakia, and although his long-term goalscoring record could be better, he does have two in his last five. The trends for this market suggest it's best to target the position.
