Major Football Fixtures Upcoming in July 2024

The June Sports Events might be over already, but each month has some football activities. In July, we are happy to witness the playoff matches in both Euro 2024 and Copa America. These football themed events will be filled with excitement, intensity and a lot of action. 

Added to that, we will have the Olympics, where top nations will also feature. Make sure to read the comprehensive information below about upcoming football events in July, as well as the predictions.

Euro 2024

So far, it has been one of the best Euro editions in Germany. We saw a lot of goals scored, sensations and most notably – debutant Georgia have been a real discovery as noted by experts. 

All favourites managed to advance to the next round. Some teams got a relatively easy draw, while Spain, Germany, France and Portugal are in the same bracket. Don’t forget to check the upcoming predictions below.

France vs Belgium

In the list of upcoming football matches, we should certainly mention France. While having one of the strongest squads in Europe, they did not leave a decent impression. 

First of all, they only managed to score two goals. One was an own goal in the game against Austria and the second one a penalty against Poland. Neither of these matches illustrated their real powers leading some people to believe, that their tactics were simply not working.

Belgium also were unconvincing. Their golden generation is slowly approaching the end. Romelu Lukaku had three goals disallowed due to VAR interference and in a group alongside Romania, Slovakia and Ukraine, qualified from the second place. 

However, France will likely find the strength in the knockout to combat Belgium and advance to the next round. A reasonable football prediction in this game will be France to win and score two goals. 

Romania vs Netherlands

Romania, one of the dark horses of the Euro 2024, showed solid football. They acquired one win, one draw and one loss, taking first place. However, they were not completely lucky in the pairing, as they will face the Netherlands in the round of 16. This is a match where you should certainly bet on live events and football as there will be plenty of action.

The Netherlands lost the final game against Austria, taking third place in the group. To put it plainly, their performance deserved nothing more than criticism. It will not be an easy match against Romania. As for the upcoming prediction in this game, we would suggest placing a bet on under 2.5 goals. 

Copa America 2024

Copa America, taking place in the United States started with fashion. This is one of the most unique editions, as we can also watch teams from North America as well. Make sure you follow the action to the fullest and explore the upcoming football predictions below.

USA vs Uruguay

The United States started the tournament convincing on home soil, beating Bolivia 2-0. However, the second match turned out to be a disaster for them. Already in the first half, Timothy Weah was sent off for his reckless option, leaving his team with 10 men for the majority of the game.

While the US had a lead, Panama made a comeback and beat their opponents 2-1. Both teams have three points right now, and the final round will decide everything.

Uruguay on the other hand are playing tremendously well. They won both matches, scoring eight goals in total against Panama and Bolivia. The draw will be sufficient to get the first place, but Fede Valverde and co. will fight for the victory. Uruguay are favourites and they will likely get a win in this meeting.

Brazil vs Colombia

Brazil were the authors of the biggest sensation in the first round. They drew against Costa Rica 0-0 and while having an advantage, did not manage to gain the upper hand. Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo who were the stars in Real Madrid this season, failed to showcase themselves in the national team.

Colombia won the first match against Paraguay in a close game (2-1). Brazil’s draw against Costa Rica changed Selecao’s plans immensely, but Colombia are not an easy opponent to beat. The clash will be one of the best in upcoming football matches at Copa America 2024. We suggest betting on Colombia not lose and under 2.5 goals. 

Major League Baseball All-Star Game

The 94th edition of the Major League Baseball All-Star Game is set to take place on July 16. This eagerly anticipated matchup will feature teams from the American League (AL) and the National League (NL) and will be broadcast nationwide by Fox. 

The Texas Rangers will host the event at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. Torey Lovullo from the Arizona Diamondbacks will manage the NL team, while Bruce Bochy from the Texas Rangers will lead the AL team. Lovers of baseball will definitely enjoy the game.

Additional Sports Events to Consider

There may not be a huge list of football tournaments in July, but there are other sports events that you have to keep track of. We will explore these tournaments and potential favourites.

Wimbledon

Taking place from July 1 to 14, Wimbledon is the most prestigious Grand Slam tournament in tennis. All the best players will be featured. Novak Djokovic, who has recently announced, that he will take part in the competition, will aim for another title. However, defending champion Carlos Alcaraz will be on his way, as well as Jannik Sinner, who is probably the best player of the year.

Given the circumstances, Jannik Sinner is undoubtedly the main favourite to win the trophy. The world number one proved himself on hard courts already and the grass is also a preferable surface for him.

Summer Olympics 2024

The flow of football matches in 2024 will be complemented by the Summer Olympics 2024. Taking place in Paris, it is one of the most watched tournaments worldwide. We will see action in almost every top-notch sport ranging from basketball to judo. 

The United States will be present with the strongest possible squad in basketball. LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Steph Curry are only a small portion of players who will go for another gold medal. Make sure you don’t miss a second at this Olympics!
