Saturday's Euro 2020 last 16 predictions including Wales vs. Denmark

Sports Mole provides score predictions for both of Saturday's Euro 2020 last 16 matches - Wales vs. Denmark and Italy vs. Austria.

The Johan Cruijff ArenA in Amsterdam plays host to the first of the Euro 2020 last-16 ties on Saturday evening as Wales take on Denmark.

Wales finished second to Italy in Group A, while Denmark defied the odds to finish as runners-up to Belgium in Group B despite losing their first two games.

We say: Wales 1-1 Denmark (Wales to win on penalties)


Denmark got the better of Wales home and away when the sides met in the 2018 UEFA Nations League and are seven places higher than their opponents in the FIFA rankings.

However, the Dragons have had a day's extra rest and have more recent experience of competing in the knockout stages of a major tournament, which will surely come in handy.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Italy vs. Austria (Saturday, 8.00pm)

Having emerged as one of the tournament favourites, Italy meet unfancied Austria at Wembley on Saturday, in the last 16 of Euro 2020.

While the Azzurri's sparkling start to the championships has continued a record-equalling unbeaten run, the Austrians are into the knockout phase for the first time ever, after finally ending their Euros drought with two group-stage wins.

We say: Italy 2-0 Austria


Undoubtedly, the impetus will be on Italy to create chances and dictate the tempo against obdurate opponents, but they are well versed at probing patiently and then striking with clinical accuracy.

Even if Austria can thwart them for the first hour or so, the Azzurri can turn to the likes of pacy winger Federico Chiesa to make the difference from the bench, so should seal progress in the end.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.
