⚡ A DEAD-RUBBER MATCH WITH REAL SUBPLOTS: MBAPPÉ'S GOLDEN BOOT CHASE, DESCHAMPS' FINAL MATCH IN CHARGE, AND HEAVY ROTATION EXPECTED ON BOTH SIDES · WILLIAM SALIBA CONFIRMED OUT FOR FRANCE, REECE JAMES A DOUBT FOR ENGLAND · KICKOFF 5PM ET TODAY

How it works: The 3-way moneyline covers only the result after 90 minutes plus stoppage time. "To Finish Third" covers who wins across regulation, extra time, and penalties if needed.

Even without Saliba, France's overall attacking depth and Mbappé's individual motivation give them a clear edge.

How it works: Anytime Goalscorer pays out if your player scores at any point during 90 minutes plus stoppage time. This board is unusually deep for both teams given the expected rotation — lots of names to choose from.

The only outright favorite on this entire board — tied with Messi for the Golden Boot and genuinely motivated to pull ahead outright.

A genuine hedge if Kane's heavy tournament workload results in a rest — Watkins is the direct beneficiary at a reasonable price.

How it works: A simple yes/no question — does each side find the net at least once during the 90 minutes? Third-place playoffs tend to run looser than earlier rounds given expected rotation on both sides.

Heavily favored, and it lines up with everything else about this matchup — rotated defenses, motivated attackers, and a dead-rubber setting that rarely produces defensive discipline.

How it works: You're picking the exact final score after 90 minutes plus stoppage time. Biggest payouts, lowest hit rate — treat it as a smaller stake even on your best-supported pick.

The only price at the top of the grid consistent with a France win, Over 2.5 goals, and Both Teams to Score all landing together — a genuinely internally consistent single-bet pick.
