Pick 1 - Russia U21 vs Iceland U21

I think Russia is the big favourite in this game, they are coming with a strong squad here and they had an very great qualification and this youth of Russia is really good, they have a very good Goalkeepers in Maksimenko and Lomaev, good defenders in Grulev, Diveev, Oblyakov, midfielders full of quality in Zakharyan, Makarov, Glebov, Umyarov, solid wing players in Lesovoy and Shapi and solid attackers in Tyukavin and Chalov, overall this is a very strong team with players who are playing already in nice clubs and most important is they know each other a lot has a collective team and play well together like we saw in their qualification, I think they are in the 2nd line of favourites in this tournament but they are in a tough group where Iceland is the weak link so they can't really lose points here if they wanna advance to the knock-out stages because they next two games will be very difficult.

I see Russia on another level compared to Iceland, Iceland to be here in this tournament is already a big achievement for them but in the qualification they where great against the lower teams winning every game but when facing strong teams they struggled what is normal, Iceland is always a team like their main team, they don't have the talent but they fight a lot in their games and give it all and are a solid unit together but in this group I see them losing every game, they got unlucky with this group, even the other groups they would be the weak link too.

I see Russia starting this tournament with a win here.

俄罗斯一个强大的阵容来这里和他们有一个非常伟大的资格,这青年的俄罗斯是非常好的,他们有一个很好的守门员Maksimenko和Lomaev Grulev好后卫,Diveev, Oblyakov,中场Zakharyan质量,马卡罗夫,Glebov, Umyarov,固体翼球员Lesovoy沙皮和固体袭击者Tyukavin Chalov,总体上这是一个非常强大的团队,球员在不错的俱乐部,最重要的是他们已经知道彼此很多的集体团队和玩在一起就像我们看到在他们的资格,我认为他们是在第二行最喜欢的比赛,但他们在一个困难的小组,冰岛是薄弱环节,所以他们不能失去点如果他们想晋级淘汰赛阶段,因为他们接下来的两场比赛将是非常困难的。

我看到俄罗斯在另一个层面上与冰岛相比,冰岛将在这届世界杯上已经取得了重大成就,但在伟大的资格,他们对较低的球队赢得每一场比赛,但当面对强队他们挣扎是正常的,冰岛一直是一个团队就像他们的主要团队,他们没有天赋,但他们在游戏中经常吵架,给这一切和固体单元在一起,但在这一组我看到他们失去每一场比赛,他们在这一组中很不幸，甚至在其他组中他们也会成为薄弱环节。

我认为俄罗斯将以一场胜利开始本届杯赛。

Pick 2 - Portugal U21 vs Croatia U21

Portugal is clearly one of the favourites to win this tournament for so many reasons, they already won major tournaments in the other youth tournaments and had always solid results and this is a very strong team, especially because they play together since the U17 with big success and if we look at their players we have Costa, Correia, Leite, Queiros, Dalot, Florentino, Gedson, Ramos, Pote, Trincao, Conceicao and others who are also good, this is a very strong squad and for me the best team in this tournament, for example, France has more talent in my eyes but has an collective team who know each other really well and who pratically play with closed eyes together makes Portugal in my opinion the strongest team in this tournament, now they need to prove it but overall I do expect this team to go at least to the semi-finals, too much talent, very good has a collective team and also really well coached.

I just see Portugal a number to high for Croatia here, I was expecting lower odds on Portugal but I get, Croatia is not a bad team at all but in compare to Portugal I just see Portugal on another level, I know this kids since the U17 and have followed them since then and I expect big things from this team for this tournament, I expect Portugal to start the tournament with a win here.

Good Luck

葡萄牙显然是最受欢迎的球队之一赢得这场比赛有很多原因,他们已经赢得了其他主要赛事青年锦标赛和一直坚实的结果,这是一个非常强大的团队,特别是因为他们一起玩自参加U17和巨大的成功如果我们看球员科斯塔,科雷亚是雷特,奎罗斯,Dalot,弗洛伦蒂诺,Gedson,拉莫斯,种种折磨,Trincao,主力,其他还好,这对我来说是一个非常强大的阵容,最好的球队比赛,例如,法国已经在我的眼睛但更多的人才有一个集体的团队谁知道对方很好,几乎玩闭着眼睛让葡萄牙在我看来最强的团队一起在这个比赛,现在他们需要证明它但总的来说我希望这支球队至少要走到半决赛,太多的人才,很好有一个集体的团队也很好教练。

我只是看到葡萄牙一些高克罗地亚,我期望低几率葡萄牙但我得到克罗地亚是个不错的团队,而是在与葡萄牙我只看到葡萄牙在另一个层面上,我知道这孩子自从参加U17和跟随他们,我希望大事情从这支球队比赛,我希望葡萄牙开始赢的比赛。
