EURO 2024 & Copa America Best Bets Today
Now, each day, this page will cover the matches for the EURO 2024 and the Copa America. However, I will not necessarily have a bet on every single match of the entire tournament. There aren’t specific edges to be found in every match, and just because something is on TV, doesn’t mean you have to bet it. But, with that being said, this piece will absolutely touch on every game in the entire tournament!
Here are today’s Soccer Best Bets.
-
Switzerland/Italy Under 2 (-118) Bovada
-
Denmark or Draw Double Chance (+135) BetOnline
-
Canada/Chile Under 2.5 (-112) Bovada
Listed above are my best bets for today in the EURO 2024 and Copa America. I also have some leans for the other matches as well. Check back tomorrow to see what else we have in store for these massive international tournaments!

Can the Italians keep their dreams of repeating alive?
Switzerland vs Italy Best Bets
In our first game of the EURO 2024 round of 16, our defending champions take on the mighty Swiss. Now these teams have not met since 2021. In EURO 2020, which happened during 2021, Italy beat the Swiss 3-0 in group stage, but both played to a nil-nil and 1-1 draw in two World Cup Qualifying games that followed the EURO. Both teams ended up placing 2nd in their group, and now they matchup with each other, with the winner facing England or Slovakia.
Now, my immediate thought in this game is under. Big surprise, right?
Swiss vs Italy Round of 16
Had Italy not allowed the fastest goal in EURO history to Albania to kick off their 2024 campaign, all three of their matches would’ve gone under 2.5 total goals. Now, that number is juiced to high heavens, but I’ll pay some reasonable juice for under 2.
Something to keep in mind when betting these knockout round games, be sure to know the house rules of whatever bet you are placing. For example, most soccer bets are settled after the 90th minute of action, even if teams go into extra time. Be sure to know exactly what you need to happen in order for you to cash your bet.
Now, we are taking under 2 at (-118) on Bovada. I think we ultimately see a nil-nil draw after 90, or maybe 1-nil either way. My lean is slightly with the Swiss to pull off the upset, but I certainly don’t have the stones to back them. I see both teams using the first half to feel each other out, which make me like the typical 45 minute sweat of Under 0.5 goals in the 1H, however offering me +122 is laughable and even I will hold off that.
Regardless, the lines are telling me that we see a very meticulous, boring soccer match, with the winning goal most likely coming after 90 minutes or even from the penalty spot. Give me a nil-nil draw, or 1-0 Switzerland.
Best Bet: Under 2 (-118) Bovada
![Christian Eriksen scored the opening goal for Denmark at the EURO 2024](https://wp.bettingnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Erikson.jpg)
Can Eriksen lead the Danes against the German hosts?
Germany vs Denmark Best Bets
Our hosts are taking on Denmark in their battle of the Round of 16, with the winner advancing to face Spain or Georgia. Germany was on the verge of losing the group when Niclas Füllkrug scored in stoppage time to draw with the Swiss, secure a point, and win the Group. Now they face Denmark who will be no easy foe.
Germany has looked utterly dominant in all 3 of their EURO 2024 matches so far, but now the real work begins. In my opinion, Germany is much too large of a favorite in this game, but that does not automatically mean we are backing the Danes. While I understand the power that Germany has behind them offensively, I also understand the tactical advantage of Denmark. For starters, the Danes have won the possession and corner kick battle in all 3 of their matches, and it hasn’t been particularly close. Denmark has won 21 corners this EURO, while only conceding 9 of their own.
Again, Germany has looked incredible, coming back from behind to draw with the Swiss, but something tells me the Danes could surprise everybody today. I booked Denmark Double Chance for plus money when they played England, and I will be going right back to it today as it is plus money again.
We are taking Denmark or Draw Double Chance at (+135) on BetOnline and rooting for them to hold on. Keep in mind, this is a 90 minute bet, meaning we just need to force extra time to win. If Germany advances in extra time or on PKs, we will still walk away a winner.
Best Bet: Denmark or Draw Double Chance (+135) BetOnline
![Lautaro Martinez has 2 goals for Argentina in the Copa America](https://wp.bettingnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Lautaro.jpg)
Lautaro Martinez has 2 goals for Argentina in the Copa America
Argentina vs Peru Best Bets
Our defending Copa America champions play their final match of group stage tonight against Peru. Now, because there is no head to head tie breaker, Argentina has not quite clinched this group, although they can do that with just a draw against Peru who will be fighting for their lives. Peru likely needs a win and a Canadien/Chilean draw, which I’ll spoil it for you, one of those things ain’t happening.
Even if Argentina rests some studs, they are still Argentina against Peru. They are more than capable of securing one point tonight, and ultimately I think they do get the win. Peru are a very relentless team, however they will be without Miguel Araujo after his red card against Canada. I lean with Argentina, but would not pay the (-197) that they are asking for on the ML.
I certainly don’t hate Argentina -1 (-115), but I would wait until lineups were dropped before clicking that button. Argentina could very easily net one and then sit back and play defense, although they would probably go for more goals. I will be staying off betting this game, but I would be surprised if Peru finds the back of the net at all.
Heavy Lean: Argentina to Nil (+110) BetOnline

Alphonso Davies and Canada likely need a point to secure their spot in the Copa America Quarterfinals
Canada vs Chile Best Bets
Canada have set themselves up for success going into their final Copa America group stage match against Chile. They most likely just needs a draw to survive and advance to the Copa America Quarterfinals. While their offense has certainly been iffy, there is no question the back line has been solid, holding strong for 45 minutes against Argentina, and then shutting down Peru. Tonight, I think they can easily hold Chile scoreless, and secure a point.
Chile has not scored in the Copa America tournament yet, and they’ve only produced 4 shots on target, 14 total attempts, and 3 total corner kicks in two matches. Even though they possessed the ball 65% of the time against Peru, only 1 shot found the target in their scoreless draw. As you can probably tell, I have been very unimpressed by the Chilean offense, and I don’t see it changing against Canada.
Plus, Canada holds the high ground as they are in the much better group position going into this game, simply needing a point to almost guarantee their advance. I think Canada plays conservative, facing the Chilean attack head on, and holding strong for the entire match. Give me the Under in what I think ends up being a 1-1 draw.
Best Bet: Under 2.5 (-112) Bovada
