Saturday's Best Football Betting Picks

While some countries still hold hope of securing a place at the European Championships in Germany, other sides are already beginning their preparations for a shot at glory this summer.

With most European sides in action during the international break, we've compiled some of the best betting picks from the upcoming action on Saturday.

France vs Germany - France to win; Over 3 goals scored

The home side are unbeaten in four games and collected 22 points from a possible 24 on their way to topping Group B in EURO 2024 qualifying. They also boasted the highest expected goals (xG) tally during qualifying (2.57), and were Europe's top scorers with 29 goals in total.

Germany meanwhile head to Paris with only two wins in their last ten. Julian Nagelsmann's side have also lost their last two matches, and have averaged an expected goals against (xGA) tally of 2.2 in their last five outings.

It's hard to look past a home victory in a game featuring plenty of goals as France look to step-up preparations for a run at a potential third European Championship trophy.

England vs Brazil - England to win; Over 2.5 goals scored

EURO 2024 favourites England return to Wembley Stadium unbeaten in their last ten games. Gareth Southgate's side scored 22 goals on the way to topping Group E, conceding just four in the process. They also exceeded an xG tally of 1.63, scoring an average of 2.6 goals across their eight matches. They also excelled in the defensive columns; an already impressive xGA of 0.63 goals was bettered with an average 0.5 goals conceded.

Brazil meanwhile head to London on the back of three consecutive defeats, leaving them sixth in the CONMEBOL World Cup 2026 qualifier standings. Their six qualifying matches have score eight and concede seven so far. Brazil have only kept a clean sheet in just 10% of their matches since the Qatar World Cup.

With all this in mind, an England win is the obvious pick on Saturday. Their rich goal-scoring form coupled with Brazil's habit of conceding should also make for a high-scoring encounter.

Republic of Ireland vs Belgium - Belgium to win

With interim manager John O'Shea now in charge, Ireland head into the match with one win in six matches. Former manager Stephen Kenny's decision not to renew his contract compounded a fourth-place finish in Group B, with Ireland picking up just two wins in their eight qualifying matches (both against bottom-placed Gibraltar).

Ten goals conceded with just two clean sheets makes it difficult to look past the away side on the moneyline, especially given Belgium's averaging of a 1.73 xG across their own qualifying campaign. The Red Devils also impressed in defensive columns, registering an average xGA of just 0.88, making them the clear pick in this one.

Denmark vs Switzerland - Denmark to win; BTTS

The home side come into the fixture after topping Group H to secure a place in Germany this summer. Denmark's matches rarely disappointed, with at least 2.5 goals scored in eight of their ten qualifying matches. They also found the net on regular occasion, with 2.6 scored on average.

Switzerland are without a win in four, though, and though they too will feature at EURO 2024, the Swiss haven't recorded a win in an away friendly in almost six years. Nevertheless, they also showed their attacking qualities during qualifying, with an xG of 1.8 across the campaign.

60% of both sides' qualifying matches saw goals from both teams, meaning more goal-mouth action can be anticipated as both nations edge closer to the Championships in three months time.
