The national team of Ukraine is preparing for the decisive match against Belgium at Euro-2024
The national football team of Ukraine was in the center of attention before the decisive match of the group stage of Euro-2024. On Wednesday, June 26, the team under the leadership of Serhii Rebrov will meet with one of the strongest national teams in the world - the Belgian team.
Chances of success: what do the bookies say?
According to the authoritative British bookmaker William Hill, the odds for the victory of Ukraine is 5.00, which indicates small chances of success. At the same time, bets are accepted with a coefficient of 1.67 for the victory of the Belgians, who occupy the third place in the world ranking of FIFA. A draw, according to analysts, is also unlikely with odds of 4.00.
"We understand that we have a very difficult task ahead of us, but we are ready to fight to the last," said the head coach of the Ukrainian national team, Serhii Rebrov.
History of performances in group E
In the first round of Group E, the Ukrainians were defeated by Romania with a score of 0:3, which became a real sensation. However, in the second round, the team showed character and won a strong-willed victory over Slovakia with a score of 2:1, which allowed them to keep their chances of reaching the playoffs.
After Belgium beat Romania 2-0 in the second round, all the teams in Group E have 3 points. This means that the result of the last round will be decisive for determining the participants of the 1/8 finals.
Possible playoff scenarios
Before the third round, there are several options for the development of events, in which the national team of Ukraine can reach the 1/8 finals of Euro-2024. A victory over Belgium guarantees the Ukrainians a place in the playoffs, but even a draw can be lifesaving if other results are favorable.
Results and forecasts
The match between Ukraine and Belgium will start at 19:00 Kyiv time. This game will be a real test for the Ukrainian team, which must show its best game in order to continue participating in the tournament.
"We believe in our team and know that we can achieve success if we play with full dedication," Serhiy Rebrov added.
Will the national team of Ukraine be able to overcome this challenge and win against one of the strongest teams in Europe? We will find out the answer to this question very soon.
