Euro Special - Top Scoring League
Ladbrokes offer a novelty market in which you can bet on the highest scoring league at the Championships - with the Premier League, Bundesliga, La Liga and Serie A the four options.
The Premier League heads the market at 1/2 and although Robin Van Persie represents this division and looks set to knock in a few, the likes of Torres and Ballotelli were peripheral figures for their respective sides during qualification. With Rooney suspended for England's opening two matches and his likely replacements (Wellbeck, Defoe and Carroll - all representing the same league) falling short of world class, I feel the favourite is worth taking on.
Serie A have Ibrahimovic, Sneijder, Klose and Di Natale on their side and have fair claims, but La Liga and Bundesliga look the pair to focus on.
La Liga boast Benzema, Ronaldo and Llorente, then beyond that trio there are the likes of Pedro, Iniesta, Oezil and Postiga that could also weight in with a contribution.
However, the most potent armoury looks to be in the BUNDESLIGA, with Bayern Munich mainly responsible for some of the most exciting attacking players in the world. Gomez (top goalscorer favourite for the tournament), Huntelaar, who scored 12 goals during qualification for Holland, and Lewandowski (scored over 20 for Borussia Dortmund, representing Poland) and Mueller, Robben and Ribery are all lively runners for the Bundesliga. The 3/1 on offer could be considered too big considering the Dutch and German representation against a Portugal defence who shipped more than a goal a game during qualification.
