After recording a stunning 2-1 victory over two-time defending European champions Spain to clinch top spot in Group D at Euro 2016, Croatia has gained real traction at the sportsbooks ahead of its Round of 16 clash with struggling Portugal. The Croatians have vaulted to +900 on the odds to win Euro 2016 at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com.
Croatia entered the tournament trailing the defending champs with +300 odds of winning its group, and was pegged as a middling +2500 bet to earn its first-ever Euro championship.
But with a 10-game undefeated streak on the line, the Blazers have emerged as solid +164 three-way betting favourites to advance to the quarterfinal with a win in Saturday afternoon’s Portugal vs. Croatia betting matchup at Stade Bollaert-Delelis.
Host nation France continues to lead the way on the Euro 2016 futures as +400 chalk to win its third overall European championship, and their second on home turf.
Les Bleus powered to a seven-point finish in the group stage, good for top spot in Group A and a Round of 16 matchup with Ireland on Sunday as heavy -217 three-way betting chalk.
Germany did not give up a goal en route to a first-place finish in Group C and remains on France's tail on the Euro 2016 betting odds, holding steady at +450.
Die Mannschaft are also expected to advance to the quarterfinals after drawing a Round of 16 matchup with Slovakia. Germany is pegged as enormous -233 favourites to end the Falcons' dark horse run.
Spain and Belgium round out the front of the pack on the Euro 2016 championship odds, knotted at +550. La Roja will look to bounce back from their loss to Croatia, which ended a 14-match win streak at the Euros, as they battle Italy on Monday as +100 chalk.
Belgium, who avoided a date with Spain by virtue of 2-0 loss to Italy in their tournament opener, is expected to have an easier time as -152 favourites in its meeting with Hungary on Sunday.
England needed stoppage time to eke out its lone win of the group stage, a 2-1 victory over Wales, and enters the knockout stage with its championship odds stalled alongside Croatia at +900.
Portugal, who advanced on the strength of three draws, follows at +1000, while Italy sits in the middle of the pack at +1600.
Undefeated in the group stage, Poland joins a surprising Wales squad at +2500, ahead of Hungary and Ireland, who are deadlocked at +10000, while Iceland is tied with Slovakia at +15000, and Northern Ireland trails as a +20000 long shot to win the tournament.
