Russia
The odds on every team's first match are up at Pinnacle here. Those pairings for the first round of games, played in locations in both Switzerland and Austria, are as follows:

Switzerland vs. Czech Republic (lean: Czech +181 and/or Draw +215)
Portugal vs. Turkey (lean: Portugal -121)
June 8
Austria vs. Croatia (no lean)

Italy vs. Netherlands (lean: Italy +156)
June 10
Spain vs. Russia (lean: Spain -0.5 -104)

Grover and I enjoy the World Cup/Euro Cup wagering, and we've done OK the last couple of opportunities, but if anybody out there has a real strong talent for the futbol betting, we'd love to hear your thoughts and suggestions.

I don't know much about soccer but don't you feel that Italy at +156 would get a ton of love from the public?
My inner square would tell me to pound the Italians in that first game.
I hear ya, Wagers. I typed those leans after looking at the lines for just a few minutes. But you're right, as one of the tournament favorites, there's something strange about that Italy line. Thanks for the heads up.
