After Holland’s stunning 5-1 rout of defending champions Spain last night, Paddy Power are rolling out a tempting offer for those yet to register an account. With Roy Hodgson’s England set to face Italy in the 11pm kick-off, our bookmaker mates are offering odds of 8/1 for the Three Lions to triumph, 7/1 for a draw or 6/1 on Cesare Prandelli’s troops to open their campaign with a victory:

Given that the regular odds are 2/1, 2/1 and 7/4 respectively, this is clearly another great offer from Paddy. Click here to get involved.

Those who already have an account with Paddy can still take advantage of a Money Back Special on offer. Paddy will refund all losing First Goalscorer, Last Goalscorer, Correct Score & Scorecast singles on the match as a free bet if Italy win – found out more here.

To clarify, the England v Italy enhanced odds special is limited to a £10 stake, open to new Paddy Power customers only and subject to the terms and conditions specified. New customers can only opt for one of the three offers.

Finally, of course, we should state that all these offers are only available to those aged 18 and over and are subject to Paddy Power’s terms and conditions. Also, if you’re going to bet, always gamble responsibly.

    Hey guys, have set up the Deadzone Picks in a clearer spreadsheet with average ranks and deviations from the mean. Red means you are well below the mean and green means you are well above it. Uruguay killed me today.

    Will it be an obvious choice such as RvP, for those playing Fox and FiT?

            I jest. Know you rate Welbeck but I think the Italians will probably be happier about the inclusion of Welbeck than the majority of the English. I'd say it indicates England are hoping to grab a point. Playing Sterling would have been more aggressive and, IMO, would have made more sense.

                Just noticed that, thanks. Would have had Lallana in there over Welbeck though too. Assuming this is purely because it's Italy.

      100% agree. I'm pretty baffled. Assuming Hodgson is treating Italy as England biggest threat in the group (understandably) and thinks Welbeck the better option. A bad job when England are taking a player pretty much because he 'works hard and runs alot'.

    Apologies if this has already been asked. But what happens when you change formation in the Mcshite game? I am trying to replace a forward with a defender and don't want to lose Sanchez points.
