Croatia needs to do a lot better if they want to get a point from this match. Im expecting a whole new other match and Croatia to put a lot more presure on Turkey

not sure that Croatia will put too much pressure, yeah try to win, but both teams almost secured qualification from this group
possibilities for Wales and Armenia to catch top2 position are really distant and only mathematical

but, I am watching Spain, Scotland is still locked on goalless draw, and Spain needs this win to have easier match in Norway, although Norway to surpass them also looks to distant

If Scotland somehow wins this match thats it and they will secure 100% for sure the euros. But i dont think that will happen Spain needs a win badly here if not they will make things a lot more complicated. Spain has a young team but i think if they score and early goal it will be a walk in the park for them.
It may happen that Scotland wins. There is more pressure on them now that Norway leads because they now need to win this game if they will qualify. Spain came close to scoring in the first half  with Rodri in midfield they controlled the midfield and defended very high up the pitch but still did not score, If they let Scotland score first, Spain will have a very difficult time winning this game.

From Group D games, Turkiye leading Croatia, I will be surprised if the game ended that way.

No way, Spain does not score tonight. No matter how good your defense is 180+ minutes against top team like Spain is impossible to hold.
[snip]
The second round of this match has just begun. In the 45+ minutes of the first half Spain had not been able to score a goal, meaning the challenge for Scotland's defense had proven to be good even though they still had 45+ minutes to play.
Spain played an attacking game from kick off, but none of the 9 shots in the first half became a goal.

Turkey won the first half 1-0 against Croatia. Turkey managed to take the lead with the goal scored by Baris Alper and I think Turkey played a good game in the first half. The team is playing well except for a few players especially Ismail, Salih and Ferdi had a good first half. Livakovic saved the first 3 shots on goal but I can say that he made a big mistake in the goal. I can say that he took the mistake of leaving the goal early by conceding a goal.

He left the goal too early and Barış Alper managed to score with a beautiful shot. It is an enjoyable match for him. I didn't think we would play this well in the Croatia match. The best player for Croatia is Gvardiol. He showed once again that he is an important defender by blocking many positions. I hope to watch a more enjoyable match in the second half.

Turkey playing good attacking football and created a couple of chance in the first half and got a goal from it. Croatia needs to do a lot better if they want to get a point from this match. Im expecting a whole new other match and Croatia to put a lot more presure on Turkey

Ffs it looks like I jinxed us, Croatia looks like shit this first half, Turkey is better and they deservingely lead 0:1. Livakovic has been very good until the moment he went full reteard and went out of 16m for no obvious reason. He saved our ass so many times in the past so I guess it something like this was bound to happen eventually.

Biggest problem is that on Croatia's bench I don't see players that can change the situation. No Perisic, no Kramaric, Brozovic looks awful (as expected since he plays in that shit Saudi league), Stanisic and barsisic are even worse..Then again, we never lost home game for Euro qualifiers so I hope we don't break that streak.

In today's first match in Group D, interestingly Latvia managed to defeat Armenia. With this win, Latvia got their first point, which is a very good achievement for us. Considering that we are going to have a tough time against Croatia, this win should actually motivate us even more to get out of the group. Croatia is a difficult opponent, but any points we can get here will be very important in the future. Although we saw more of Armenia's attacks in the game, Latvia made a bit of a surprise by winning the match.

I fully hate national teams breaks man, i so hard to bet on them, because when you think you have  full undestandment of the amrkets the teams start to be so fucking irregular in many ways.

For example i see the bet above and i read turkish team, that one is one of the most irregular teams i see in my life, they lost or play like shita gainst very weaks teams without so much reason.

Turkey is playing against Croatia and everyone sees Croatia as the favorite in this match. Türkiye, on the other hand, sometimes surprises and can win some big matches. Croatians are a very difficult opponent for our team, but I am hopeful for our team in this match. I hope we can beat them today.

That's bad news for Norway, but there is one thing I never fully understood and maybe one of you guys can shed some light on the situation. I read that there are some backdoors for European national teams to also qualify via the so called Nations League. Does this mean that Norway still has a chance to make it to the UEFA Euro 2024 or is it game over for Norway at this point? All these different ways to qualify for the Euro are confusing as there are also play-offs from the group stage I think. Is Norway officially out (apart from the unlikely scenario that KTChampions outlined)?

Norway has a chance to get to the Euro if they win one of the 3 tickets that the losers will compete for in a separate tournament. To qualify for this tournament (for 12 participants) you must have success in the League of Nations, as I understand Norway has no problems with this. There is a very confusing system, but to win the tournament you literally need to win two games, details here:

Spain vs Scotland should be a good game tonight, obviously Spain will be favourites but Scotland are doing really well. They have 15 points with 5 wins in 5 games.
Scotland squad understands the situation of this group and Scotland understands that their statistics are better than Spain in this group. Because Spain is targeting victory, in my opinion Scotland will target to get at least 1 point.
So, the best scenario in this fight is a draw and Spain will have difficulty for the next step.

Scotland has already gained a significant advantage by winning all 5 matches with a big surprise. If Spain wins this match, Norway will have almost no chance. I think Spain will beat Scotland in this match and make sure that both teams will qualify from the group today.

I think it's nothing strange that Spain is favoured so much. Yeah, Scotland won previous time, but they played at home, now game is in Spain. And if they would play 10 games, I'm wondering how many games Sctoland would win. 1, maybe 2.

At risk of repeating myself too much all over the forum, I think I have to stick with the Scots here. Spain is awesome and rightly the favs as you say but I can't possibly overlook the value in odds. I completely agree 1 maybe 2 in 10... which gives max 10/1 -- any extra above that, as is the case now, is pure value.

- Scotland : 12.00

The difference of odds between Spain and Scotland to win is just huge.

Where you getting your quotes?
1.25 | 6 | 12.5 is available now on Sportsbet... and it only went down today, since Monday Scotland was 14/1, over 15/1 with the price boost as you can see on my slip:

Truthfully bookmakers are underestimating Scotland too much

It's a good opportunity to think about the risk/reward and bet on Scotland. Although I think it's a bit hard because Spain is a strong opponent in any situation, even if Scotland are in great form
Maybe a bet in Scotland win / draw no bet

But I'd like to point out one important detail about this group: if Spain lose today, Norway could have a glimpse of hope for possible qualification
It's difficult, of course, but a miracle could happen  Cheesy
Norway would have to win today, beat Spain and Scotland
And hope that Spain lose to Scotland (possible), and lose to them (very difficult)

Truthfully bookmakers are underestimating Scotland too much. I mean we are talking about a team with 5 wins in 5 matches now. Spain were also one of those victims as you know. Spain must be aware of the seriousness of the situation so I hope to see them showing a good performance accordingly.

They should focus on making use of players in-form especially. Morata has really been on fire so far. He is playing wonderfully not only in the La Liga but also the qualifiers. I don't remember him this much productive before when it comes to scoring goals.

If this becomes one of his good days then Spain can score many goals being in control of the match also.

Scotland have a big advantage for Euro 2024 by winning all 5 matches in the group. With a point from this match, they can secure qualification for the European Championship depending on the result of the Cyprus-Norway match. Spain can give Norway hope in case of a possible mistake. Scotland have found success under Steve Clarke and their defense is at the forefront. This could be a problem for Spain. Scotland's tough defense could leave the match low scoring. My prediction is that the match will be in the middle and I favor a draw.
No way, Spain does not score tonight. No matter how good your defense is 180+ minutes against top team like Spain is impossible to hold. In order for Scotland to have some success tonight I believe they must score again. McTominay is on fire for them and i hope he will add another one tonight and that should be enough for my both to score bet to pass. Odds are very good @2.2

I think Spain are overrated too. Scotland are in first place right now and are there for a reason. They haven't lost one game in five and they managed to beat Spain in a home game. So they might not lose again today. I don't understand why everyone thinks that Spain must win.

Spain for me has a very good and a young team that will be even better in the upcoming years. Scotland might be first and unbeaten but i think this will be the end of their streak. I am even predicting an easy win for Spain in tonights match against Scotland
