⬤ Group A
- Germany;
- Scotland;
- Hungary;
- Switzerland;
The c𓆉lear favorite in Group A is the German national team. The odds of 1.45 on the Germans winning i𓆏n Group A. The news of Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos' return to the team must have contributed to it. Switzerland (6.00) and Hungary (8.50) are expected to compete for the second spot. Scotland (10.0) is considered the underdog of the group after their poor performance in the last qualifying games.
⬤ Group B
- Spain;
- Croatia;
- Italy;
- Albania;
Group B features three top teams. The main favorite is Spain (1.75), followed by the reigning European champion Italy (3.50), who had a hard time getting to the tournament, and World Cup 2022 bronze medalist Croatia (5.30). The undisputed underdog of the gr🐷oup is the Albanian national team (30).
⬤ Group C
- Slovenia;
- Denmark;
- Serbia;
- England;
The third group, like the first, has one clear favorite and three💎 teams that will fiercely compete for the second and third places. England (1.60) is the favorite, having narrowly missed the trophy in 2021. Denmark (5.50), Serbia (6.00), and Slovenia (10.0) will pursue England and compete against each other.
⬤ Group D
- Netherlands;
- France
- Poland;
- Austria;
The clear fa♚vorite in Group D is France (1.65). Following them are the Ne✅therlands (3.70) and Austria (9.00). Poland is placed as the underdog of the quartet (11.00).
⬤ Group E
- Ukraine;
- Slovenia;
- Belgium;
- Romania
The bookmakers are confident in Belgium's victory in this group (1.40). Next in line is Ukraine (6.50). Slovakia and Romania (both 8.50) have the least chance of gꦑettinﷺg out of the group.
⬤ Group F
- Portugal;
- Czechia;
- Georgia;
- Turkey
The mainဣ intrigue in the final group is not who wins – Portugal (1.47) is the clear leader – but whether Georgia (12.00) can compete for a spot in the playoffs in their first-ever European Championshi🦄p.
