UEFA Nations League- Best Bets, Top Picks & Predictions for 08/06/2025

Ritam Dey

The UEFA Nations League final and third-place decider is upon us after a week of intense drama in the semi-finals. Germany and Portugal faced off in the first semi-final of this year’s Nations League, where a Cristiano Ronaldo winner sealed a spot in the finals for the Portuguese side. Later in the week, Spain hosted France, and in a dramatic 5-4 victory, the current European champions also secured their spot in the finals of the UEFA Nations League. The third-place decider between Germany and France will be played at 3 p.m. CET on Sunday, 8 June, where both teams will aim to end the Nations League campaign on a high note after losing out on the semi-finals by just one goal.

Portugal and Spain will play the big finals at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany and it will be a test of time to see whether Lamin Yamal and company wins the Nations League or Cristiano Ronaldo has a fair little finish to his Nations League campaign.

Best Bets for UEFA Nations League Fixtures 08/06/2025

Bet 1: Lamine Yamal to score anytime @ +200 as per BetMGM: The 17-year-old Spanish sensation is in his hunt for the first Nations League trophy of his career after providing a man-of-the-match performance against France in the semi-finals. As he takes on Portugal in the finals of the Nations League, eyes will once again be on what the Barcelona right winger produces.

Bet 2: Both teams to score in Portugal vs Spain @-172 as per FanDuel: Portugal and France have both shown attacking firepower throughout the tournament and also in the semi-finals, scoring in consecutive games. Portugal came on to the semifinal against Germany after scoring 5 goals past Denmark and went on to score twice against Germany, whereas Spain scored five against France and three against the Netherlands in the game before. With such attacking flair on display, both the teams are expected to score.

Bet 3: Kylian Mbappe to be the first goal scorer @ +420 according to FanDuel: The poster boy of French football, Kylian Mbappé, scored a penalty in the semi-final, but that was not enough to take them through to the finals. In the match to decide the third place of the tournament, Kylian Mbappé will be one of the key figures to get his name on the score sheet as he has scored 43 goals for Real Madrid in the club campaign so far this season.

Bet 4: Florian Wirtz to score anytime @ +220 as per FanDuel: The German forward, Florian Wirtz, was the best performer for the side in the semi-final against Portugal, scoring a goal. The Bayern Leverkusen attacking midfielder is a hot prospect in the transfer market this season and will be on the cards to get his name on the scoresheet in the match deciding the third position for the Nations League this season.
