Why you should back England

The English face a lot of pressure to perform after an underwhelming group stage performance. Even though they won Group C, they only scored two goals in three games, they know that won't cut it for the rest of the tourney. They will need forward Harry Kane to step up to help carry the team to victory, especially on the offensive end.

Kane has solid dribble moves to blow past defenders with a powerful strike from different angles. During the group stage, he had one goal on eight total shots. Last year with Bayern Munich, Kane notched 36 goals and eight assists. Midfielder Jude Bellingham provides the English with another athletic difference maker. Bellingham plays with great patience and ease. The 20-year-old had 27 starts for Real Madrid, totaling 19 goals and seven assists. See which team to pick here.

Why you should back Slovakia

This is just the third time that Slovakia have qualified for the Euro in its History. In 2016, they made it to the Round of 16 but in 2020 they didn't make it past the group stage. Heading into the tourney, the Slovaks only dropped one Game in their last seven outings. Meanwhile, in the group stage, they went 1-1-1. They are going to need more of an offensive push, logging three goals in three Games.

Forward Ivan Schranz has been impressive thus far in the Euros. Schranz has done a sound job creating high-percentage scoring chances around the net and he's capitalized. In three group-stage games, the 30-year-old had a team-best two goals on three shots. Midfielder Ondrej Duda can be another weapon, scoring two goals in three Euro tournaments for Slovaks. See which team to pick here.
