Your support makes all the difference.Wales were considered 66-1 to win the Euros at the start of the tournament – now they are 6-1 and just 90 minutes away from the final.
To get there, they need to beat Portugal, who have yet to win a game in 90 minutes at the tournament.
BetVictor offer 6-4 on the Welsh making it to the final, with Portugal evens. Chris Coleman’s side also trade at 21-10s to win the semi-final in 90 minutes, while a Portugal win is 11-10 and it is 3-1 on the draw.
Portugal, who booked their place in the knock-out stage as one of the four best third-placed teams following three draws, are 3s to be crowned kings of Europe. They required penalties to defeat Poland in the last eight and a similar method of victory for them is 9-1. Wales have scored 10 goals in five games and more than two goals at the Parc Olympique Lyonnais (90 minutes only) is 17-10.
Real Madrid club-mates Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo will go head to head on Wednesday night and BetVictor have come up with a special ‘Galacticos’ bet to mark the occasion. Bale is 3-1 to outscore Ronaldo, who can be backed at 7-4 and the tie is evens. Ronaldo and Bale are 29-10 and 19-4 respectively to score the opening goal in Lyon.
