Euro 2024 Outright Winner Odds
The European Championships are the biggest football tournament in Europe alongside the Champions League. The next competition will be in 2024 which will be hosted by Germany and football fans around the world will have their eyes on the tournament. Germany last hosted the event in 1988 where they made the semi-final losing late-on to eventual winners Netherlands. However, the last time the event was held in Germany, England lost all three of their games against the Soviet Union, Netherlands and Republic of Ireland.
A fourth title for hosts Germany?
No nation has performed better in the history of the European Championships than this years hosts. They first won the competition in 1972 and also won the competition in 1992 and 1996. They also made the finals in 1976, 1992 and 2008. However, this is currently Germany's worst ever run in competitions, they have only dropped out of the group stage of the World Cup twice, in 2018 and 2022 and in-between that they scraped through their Euro 2020 group late on against Hungary and lost against England in the round of 16.
Can England FINALLY win the Euros?
Sir Alfred Ramsey and Terry Venables took England to their greatest performances at the Euros in 1968 and 1996. However, England's performances in 2020 should have seen them win the tournament. After an early goal from Luke Shaw, everyone believed England were set to storm to a final victory. However, Italy's resistance saw them come back and take the game to extra time for the third time in four games, England missed three penalties in a row as Rashford, Sancho and Saka all missed. Interestingly enough, out of those three players Bukayo Saka was the only player to make England's 55 man provisional squad and has become a designated penalty taker for Arsenal since then. It was a devastating day that saw England hearts broken by the savvy Italians who fully deserved their tournament victory over the course of the tournament. However, England come into this tournament as favourites for the first time in over 30 years and a sports bet on England can be found at 3/1.
Can England or Scotland Win the Euros?
Who are the dark horses to win Euro 2024?
There are eight nations that sit at 16/1 and under to win the European Championships but after that, there are no nations priced at an average of 40/1. The teams that the bookies believe could win the tournament are:
England, France, Germany, Portugal and Spain all sit between 3/1 and 8/1. Meanwhile, the three nations sat at 14/1 - 16/1 and deemed as dark horses are holders Italy, Netherlands and Belgium. Italy have been poor since winning the competition last time out, Netherlands won the only other competition in Germany but would need to overperform to make it deep into Euro 2024. Meanwhile, Belgium's golden era is almost completely gone but the likes of Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku will regularly feature. However, their younger players such as Jeremy Doku, Arthur Vermeeren and Amadou Onana could provide a solid foundation for success at this European Championship.
Which underdogs could perform well at Euro 2024?
When looking at the rest of the pack, Denmark offer good value at 40/1 to win the competition and 2/1 to make the final 8. Players such as Christian Eriksen and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg are out of form but when you look at some of their squad players, they are looking very solid with the likes of Joachim Andersen and Matt O'Riley having very good seasons. They also have some very good younger players such as Rasmus Hojlund, Victor Kristiansen and Mikkel Damsgaard all likely to make the tournament. Many wouldn't bet on Denmark beating England but if you think they will, they could definitely go onto win the competition and that can be found at 40/1 in this football market. Hungary are another nation that are currently underdogs but could cause one or two shocks at the tournament. Hungary performed well last time out and were 10 minutes away from qualifying in the group of death featuring France, Germany and Portugal. Portugal were the only nation to beat Hungary and their late capitulation saw the game at 0-0 after 83 minutes and 10 minutes later, it finished 3-0 to Portugal. They also nearly won their UEFA Nations League group which featured Italy, Germany and England - who ended up relegated.
Bet on Euro 2024 Winner by Group
One of the most popular betting markets for those looking to bet on Euro 2024 is the 'winner' by group market. If you're looking to back a big team, it gives a back-up policy for those looking to bet on the winner of the tournament. if you're looking to back England, it's unlikely to be beneficial as group C has Denmark, Serbia and Slovenia and you'd get significantly better odds by just backing Denmark outright alongside England. However, for groups such as Group B and Group D where Spain, Italy and France, Netherlands are match-ups. You can back two teams to be victorious in the tournament. So, if you think France will be victorious but think Netherlands could have a fantastic tournament, you can back both across this one bet.
