England v DR Congo Football Betting Odds Preview

England v DR Congo betting form

England face DR Congo in their first knockout match of the tournament after finishing top of Group L. Despite progressing unbeaten with two wins and a draw, England have had to battle for their points, with many supporters left underwhelmed by their last two performances following an impressive opening display.

They now come up against a DR Congo side expected to sit deep and defend in numbers — an approach that has caused England problems at times during this tournament. DR Congo impressed in the group stage, collecting four points thanks to a victory over Uzbekistan and a notable draw against Portugal.

England v DR Congo football spread betting prices

Our football spread betting prices have England as the favourites with a Goal Supremacy quote of England/DR Congo 1.6 – 1.8. This means a 'buy' bet at 1.8 would need an England two goal win to start turning a profit (e.g. two goal win would win 0.2x your stake, three goal win would win 1.2x your stake etc.).

A 1.6 'sell' bet would need a one goal England win, draw or DR Congo win to turn a profit (e.g. one goal England win would win 0.6x your stake, draw would win 1.6x your stake and a one goal DR Congo win would win 2.6x your stake etc.).

Our spread betting Total Goals line is 2.65 – 2.85. So a 2.85 'buy' bet would need at least three goals to be scored in the match to start turning a profit. Conversely, a ‘2.65’ sell bet would need two goals or less to be scored in the match to turn a profit.

Remember that with spread betting, get the bet wrong and losses can exceed your stake/deposit. E.g. a 2.85 'buy' Total Goals bet would lose 2.85x your stake if the match ended 0-0. In the 1.8 'buy' Supremacy bet example above, a one goal England win would lose 0.8x your stake,  a draw would lose 1.8x your stake and a one goal DR Congo win would lose 2.8x your stake etc. And in the 1.6 'sell' Supremacy example above, the bet would lose 0.4x your stake on a two goal England win, 1.4x your stake on a three goal England win etc.

England v DR Congo betting specials and price boosts

Price Boosts are typically available on the Spreadex website the day before the game, so it’s worth checking back closer to kick-off for enhanced odds.

Jude Bellingham has been arguably England’s key player this tournament scoring twice in three games. His goal’s have both come in the second half with his goal v Croatia coming in the 47^th minute whereas his goal against Panama came in the 62^nd. This time round Jude Bellingham Total Goal Minutes spread is just 17-20. This means a ‘buy’ at 20 would win 42x your stake if he were to score in the 62^nd minute like he did last time out against Panama.

Remember that with spread betting, get the bet wrong and losses can exceed your stake/deposit. So for example if Jude Bellingham failed to score, Jude Bellingham Total Minutes would make up at 0. This means a ‘buy’ at 20 would lose 20x times your stake.
