Euro 2020 Player of Tournament Betting Tips
There are lots of antepost player-related betting markets available for the 2020 European Championship and this includes Player of the Tournament where punters have to try and predict the player who is going to receive the official recognition of being the standout operator during Euro 2020.
The main downside to betting on the Euro 2020 Best Player of the Tournament is the fact that you can’t place an each-way bet on this market in the same way as Golden Boot where you have an actual chart, with this being a win-only market although there are some tasty prices.
Who Are the Player of the Tournament Favourites?
The 2020 European Championship is going to showcase some of the world’s best players, with France boasting several of the leading contenders and that includes Kylian Mbappe who broke on to the international scene during the 2018 World Cup where the Paris Saint-Germain forward claimed the Young Player of the Tourmament.
Mbappe clearly has the credentials to reach the same level as Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi and the Frenchman is a best price 10/1 to scoop the main prize this time around, although he’s as short as 6/1 with some bookies to indicate that the layers want to keep him onside.
Kevin de Bruyne is trading at a best price 14/1 although he’s half these odds with some Euro 2020 betting sites and the Belgian’s chances have to be respected if the nation goes deep in the tournament as expected.
KDB is generally at the centre of Belgium’s attacking moves and some punters might be interested in backing the midfielder to rack up the most assists throughout the 2020 European Championship.
Can Harry Kane Land Golden Boot and Player of Euro 2020?
Harry Kane is currently contemplating life after Tottenham Hotspur and he can now put himself in the shop window at the 2020 European Championship, with the England captain third favourite with the majority of football bookies when it comes to landing the Player of the Year award.
You can get anywhere between 12/1 and 16/1 about Kane firing his team to glory and picking up the ultimate accolade and there’s a school of thought which suggests that there’s more value in backing Kane to scoop the award than actually lumping on England to win Euro 2020.
Ronaldo, Griezmann and Lukaku Can Win Golden Ball
Cristiano Ronaldo might be playing in his last European Championship for Portugal and the Juventus star helped to lead the country to success in France five years ago, with the former Real Madrid star able to count on even better team-mates this time around.
Therefore, it wouldn’t be a major surprise if Ronaldo came close to scooping this award, especially if you were banking on his country to go deep in the tournament although they do have a tricky section.
Antoine Griezmann is just one of several France players who can contend hard for major honours and it appears that the Barcelona star tends to thrive in the big tournaments, although Mbappe could take the limelight away from his team-mate.
Who Are the Best Euro 2020 Golden Ball Bets?
We’re really taken by the betting odds regarding N’Golo Kante. The Chelsea midfielder was the best player on the pitch in the 2021 Champions League final and there’s every reason to think he will shine during the European Championship as part of a quality team.
On a similar note, Serge Gnabry is also a player that can light up the tournament if you’re anticipating that Germany could make major progress and there’s plenty of room at the last sixteen stage for this team despite a tough Group F.
Youri Tielemans is another high-quality operator that might shine if De Bruyne or Eden Hazard aren’t fully fit, with last year’s winner Luka Modric trading at betting odds of 50/1.
