It's the Ukraine v Austria for our Bet Builder Euro 2020 column on Monday and this Group C clash where just a draw would be enough for Ukraine to qualify from the group stages for the first time, but also most likely do the job for Austria as well.

A nailed-on carve-up draw then? Well, as Kevin Hatchard points out in his in-depth preview it may not go that way despite the bookies favouring a stalemate.

Ukraine for one just don't look like a side that are built for playing out meaningless draws.

Andriy Shevchenko's side have been an entertaining watch so far, and can bag second spot behind the Netherlands with a point or more against an Austrian side that left it late to beat North Macedonia before being easily disposed of by the Dutch.

'Das Team' have had just seven shots on target in their two matches so far, even including scoring three goals against North Macedonia, that's one less than the combined total of Ukrainian duo Andriy Yarmolenko and Roman Yaremchuk.

Ukraine as a team had seven shots with five on target against the Netherlands and 16 shots with eight on target against North Macedonia - they're much more likely to be taking pot shots than Austria here.

Yarmolenko has scored two and assisted one already in a fine couple of games so far, while firing in three shots and two on target against the Netherlands and another five with two on target against North Macedonia.

Yaremchuk has also bagged two goals, and has a perfect 100 percent shooting accuracy with four shots on target from his four attempts.

The pair rank tied third after two group games with 2.26 shots on target over 90 minutes in this tournament, with Yarmolenko's 4.53 shots per 90 minutes good for sixth most in the tournament.

For those reasons we're doubling up on Yaremchuk hitting one shot on target and Yarmolenko hitting two in a 6.31 double for the first two legs of Monday's Euro 2020 Bet Builder.

However, we're not resting there as a flick through the stats show us that Ukraine have failed to keep a clean sheet in their eight Euros finals matches they've ever played, while they've not stopped Austria from scoring in their two previous meetings.

With that in mind we're also putting both teams to score in the mix which takes our overall Bet Builder up to around the 11.010/1 mark for the treble - which by the way has paid off in both Ukraine's games so far in Euro 2020.
