Four Teams Who Could Win Euro 2020

It may be happening a year late but that hasn’t diminished our appetite for the upcoming Euro 2020 tournament. In this article, we’ll take a look at the four favourites to win the whole thing before giving you our ultimate pick which will hopefully win you even more money than you could at the best au online casino.

France

The bookmakers consider France to be the frontrunners to lift the trophy when Euro 2020 is finally over and done. Of course, this is not surprising at all considering the same group of players won the World Cup in Russia a few years ago. The 9/2 favourite’s boast an exceptional squad filled with elite-level footballers including Hugo Lloris, Raphaël Varane, Paul Pogba, Antoine Griezmann, Kylian Mbappé and Karim Benzema who has been brought in from the cold after being left out by his national side since October 2015.

In order to make good on their favourite’s tag, France will have to make it through a super tough Group F which features Germany and Portugal – two teams you’d expect to also be in the running for the trophy.

England

Somewhat surprisingly, England are considered the second-favourites to win Euro 2020 with bookmakers pricing them at 5/1. Gareth Southgate is yet to announce his full squad but has named 33 players that will be cut down to 26 later today. ‘The Three Lions’ boast a strong squad that features the attacking talents of Raheem Sterling, Harry Kane, Phil Foden and Jadon Sancho. Harry Maguire and John Stones seem set to partner in the centre of defence but question remarks remain about who will join them on the right side. England are blessed with an abundance of talented right-backs with Kyle Walker, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Kieran Trippier and Reece James all battling it out for the starting spot.

England have a relatively easy route to the knockout stages as they shared Group D with Croatia, Scotland and Czech Republic. Is this the year they win their first trophy since 1966?

Belgium

Belgium boast an extremely strong squad and have seemed on the cusp of doing big things for the last few years. Perhaps, Euro 2020 is the tournament they put it all together and make something big happen at odds of 6/1. In the 2018 World Cup they finished third under the guidance of Roberto Martinez who is rumoured to be stepping down from his role after this tournament is done. He’ll be looking to finally find success with the Belgium national side which features the likes of Thibaut Courtois, Toby Alderweireld, Kevin De Bruyne, Eden Hazard and Romelu Lukaku.

Like England, Belgium have a relatively straightforward passage to the knockout stages as they share Group B with Denmark, Russia and Finland.

Germany

When it comes to international football you can never count out the Germans. The 2014 World Cup finalists have every chance of taking home the Euro 2020 trophy at odds of 7/1. The German squad is littered with top talents including Manuel Neuer, Mats Hummels, Toni Kross and Timo Werner who recently won the Champions League with Chelsea.

Germany’s surprisingly long odds are due to the fact they share what can only be called the group of death with France and Portugal. If they emerge through the early fixtures and advance to the knockout stages, you’ll quickly see the odds on Germany lifting the trophy dramatically drop.

Euro 2020 is wide open and any of these four teams and a few others are capable of winning. Spain, Portugal and Croatia are all at even bigger odds but must not be counted out. Ultimately, we’ll be backing France to win Euro 2020. They have the strongest squad and are now used to winning as a team following their success at the 2018 World Cup. A relatively young team we expect them to dominate this tournament and international football for the next few years.
