Despite their lackluster performance in the group stage, England still has the absolute trust of experts and European bookmakers. According to the latest odds from leading European bookmakers, the "Three Lions" are still the brightest candidate for the Euro 2024 championship.
Major bookmakers such as William Hill, Sky Bet, Ladbrokes, Bet365… all have the same odds for England’s chance of winning the championship at 1 to 4 (4/1). The second candidate is Spain at 1 to 4.5, followed by Germany at 1 to 5 and France at 1 to 5.5.
The biggest surprise was Austria - the team that just had an impressive performance with a 3-2 victory over the Netherlands to squeeze into the top 8. The odds for Austria to win the championship are 16 to 1.
Meanwhile, Belgium, with a disappointing performance in the group stage, is only rated as the 9th candidate out of 16 teams with odds of 28.
In the lower group, Slovenia, who held England to a 0-0 draw in the group stage, is the lowest rated, with odds of 1 to 200.
Georgia and Slovakia have the same odds of 150 for the championship chance. Romania is 1 to 100. The remaining teams are Denmark at 65, Türkiye at 50 and Switzerland at 35.
According to experts, the reason why England is rated the highest is because they have a team full of world- class stars. At the same time, their competition is also quite easy.
England will face Slovakia in the round of 16. If they win, they will face the winner of the Italy-Switzerland tie in the quarter-finals. If they go through to the semi-finals, England will face one of four teams: the Netherlands, Romania, Türkiye and Austria.
In this bracket, England's most formidable opponents are Italy and the Netherlands. In which, the reigning champions Italy are not in good form and they almost got eliminated, if not for Mattia Zaccagni's goal in the 90+8 minute against Croatia.
The Netherlands is no longer the "orange whirlwind". In the 3 group stage matches, the Netherlands is playing pragmatic football and lacks firepower in attack.
