Every two years, the Euro Espoirs brings together the best teams of players aged 21 or younger at the start of the competition. Of course, by the time we reach the finals, some players might be almost 23 years old.

In the last few editions, the competition's format has changed from 8 to 11, and now 16 teams. Make football bets that allow you to be part of the community of football bettors around the world.

Bet on European youth soccer matches

This is an opportunity for bettors to spot young talent that will shine for their club in the Champions League or make the transition to their national team to compete in major tournaments like the Euro, which is an almost identical competition except that it has no age limit. From now on, make bets on Euro 2024, which will be played in Germany.

The Euro Espoirs will be played right after the U20 World Cup held in Indonesia. At the end of these two major competitions, the leaders of these football nations and the bettors will be able to judge the tactics and skill levels of the youth teams.

Two nations stand out in Euro U21

For more than ten years, two nations have been particularly successful, and it comes as no surprise to punters. In the vast majority of recent editions, Germany and Spain have lifted the trophy.

Both countries have invested heavily in training and have formidable technical, physical and tactical backgrounds.

In almost every edition for more than a decade, Spain has qualified for the final and won several titles. In recent editions, Germany has always been in the final, and the "Mannschaft" has won several titles.

Recommended bets on the U21

Matches in youth soccer tend to be goal-rich and is especially the case during the qualifying rounds. For these qualifiers, the average number of goals per game is 3.04, with 48% ending in home wins

There are also very few draws — usually, only about 11% of all games played. The difference in level means that the matches are often unbalanced. Therefore, we recommend betting on games with more than 2.5 goals and keeping an eye open for the venues where the favourites perform best.
