Football Accumulator Tips: Spain to start with a strong win on Thursday

Action from the Uefa Women's European Championship dominates on Thursday evening as Iberian rivals Spain and Portugal do battle in Bern. They are preceded by the clash of Belgium and Italy in Sion on day two of the tournament in Switzerland.

I've picked out a 4/1 accumulator including both of tonight's games at Euro 2025 as well as action from MLS and the Argentine Cup. Check out my Football Accumulator Tips for Thursday, June 3.

Italy Women (N) to beat Belgium Women (17:00 BST, BBC Two) @ 8/15

Italy and Belgium join Spain and Portugal in Group B at the Women's Euros, and a fast start will give one of them a great chance to reach the knockouts.

Italy have not reached the knockout round of the Women's Euros since 2013, but they'll fancy their chances of emerging from this group if they can take care of business before facing tournament favourites Spain in the concluding group match.

Today's Football Fixtures

Belgium had to qualify via the play-off route, while the Red Flames finished third in Nations League A3, losing four of six matches and conceding 16 goals.

The Italians, meanwhile, finished top of Group A1, ahead of the Netherlands and Norway, and can count a stalemate with Spain and a win over Germany amongst their achievements last year.

Spain Women (N) -2 handicap vs Portugal Women (20:00 BST, ITV1) @ 7/10

Spain are the top-ranked team at the Euros and should be more than capable of taking care of Iberian neighbours Portugal in this opening assignment.

The 2023 World Cup winners had five wins from six in qualifying, averaging three goals per game.

La Roja topped Nations League Group A3 in the early part of this year ahead of European champions England.

Football Odds

Spain have scored at least two goals in eight of their last nine fixtures, while Portugal have failed to score in each of their last three matches.

The most recent meeting of these rivals ended 7-1 to Spain, ensuring they have scored four or more in three of the last four meetings, and they are taken to overcome a two-goal handicap in Bern.

Under 2.5 Total Goals in Instituto de Cordoba vs CA Huracan (23:45 BST) @ 1/3

To the Argentine Cup for what may not prove a barnstorming clash between Instituto de Cordoba and CA Huracan.

Only five times in the last 17 head-to-head meetings have both teams found the net.

Huracan have been defensively solid of late, keeping clean sheets in four of their previous five matches.

Indeed, three of those contests ended goalless after 90 minutes, and the other two produced just one goal each.

Instituto are entitled to be a little rusty as they return to action for the first time since May 11, and under 2.5 goals has paid out in five of the last six meetings between this pair.

New York City (H) to beat Toronto FC (00:30 BST, Friday) @ 4/9

MLS action comes just after midnight as New York City host Toronto FC in the Big Apple at Yankee Stadium.

The Pigeons have won the last five head-to-heads, and the hosts have collected maximum points in seven of 10 home games so far this season.

Toronto have collected away-day wins over CF Montreal and Real Salt Lake recently, but both those teams tend to struggle on their patch.

The Reds were without a win in five on the road previously and should leave New York empty-handed.
