    When Does Euro 2020 Take Place?

    The 2020 European Championship starts on 11 June 2021 when Turkey clash with Italy, with the group games then being played over the next few days and weeks. We then reach the knockout stage of the competition. The last sixteen stage then taking place between 26 June – 29 June to determine which sides will take their place in the last eight.

    Quarter final matches are played on 2 July and 3 July. Semi-finals take place at Wembley Stadium on 6 July and 7 July, with the final then also taking place at the national stadium on 11 July.

    Who Are the Betting Favourites for Euro 2020?

    England are effectively one of the co-hosts of the tournament. It’s looking increasingly likely that Gareth Southgate’s side will play the lion’s share of their games at Wembley. They might also get the chance to play in front of their own supporters too. So it’s no surprise to find that England head the outright betting with many football bookmakers.

    Phil Foden, Mason Greenwood, Declan Rice and Mason Mount are all young players who can shine on this big stage. Yet there are still question marks over a team who have never won this tournament and regularly flatter to deceive when it matters. There are other bets such as the popular both teams to score wager, learn more with the Whatacca.com BTTS tips page.

    France are the world champions who won the 2018 World Cup. Manager Didier Deschamps retains the nucleus of the squad that triumphed three years previously. France have key players such as Raphael Varane, N’Golo Kante, Paul Pogba, Kylian Mbappe and Antoine Griezmann key to their success.

    Belgium are clearly major players and will hope that Eden Hazard is back up to full speed. Kevin de Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku have helped their teams win their respective domestic football leagues. Roberto Martinez’s side only narrowly lost to France in the World Cup semi finals.

    Spain, Germany and Portugal Also Single Figure Betting Odds

    There are lots of leading contenders at Euro 2020 who stand a decent chance of success. This includes Spain who have become something of a forgotten side on an international stage. Despite winning the 2010 World Cup in between claiming two European Championships.

    La Roja have still got a squad packed with quality players and this could be the final European Championship in which Sergio Ramos participates. The same might be said of his former team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo who will lead the line for a Portugal side who are actually the reigning European champions.

    The Portuguese side are led by the highly experienced Fernando Santos. He can call upon Bruno Fernandes, Joao Felix and Diogo Jota among others. Pepe is capable of leading a strong defensive line in front of Rui Patricio although they’re in a tough qualifying group with Germany and France.

    Germany had a torrid time of things at the 2018 World Cup. Joachim Low took some drastic measures after that tournament. Low announced he would be stepping down after this competition and perhaps they can go out with a bang.

    Who Are the Euro 2020 Golden Boot Favourites?

    The Golden Boot betting market is always an interesting heat and we have some familiar names at the top of the betting. Harry Kane and Romelu Lukaku were among the leading scorers at the 2018 World Cup. It’s plausible that the duo could be filling their boots at the European Championship.

    England are in a relatively easy-looking group. That probably explains why Kane is among the favourites to win the Golden Boot. Kane is a nailed-on pick in the Three Lions team, although perhaps he’ll be given a breather if Southgate’s team win their first two matches.

    Lukaku has a remarkable scoring record for Belgium and has completely lit up for Internazionale domestically this season. The former Everton and Manchester United forward pilfering goals with aplomb and he looks a decent each-way shout. Kylian Mbappe broke onto the scene when helping France win the 2018 World Cup.

    Mbappe is someone who can score goals quickly. Just as he demonstrated when plundering a hat-trick at the Nou Camp in the Champions League for Paris Saint-Germain. Cristiano Ronaldo is trading at single figure odds and the Portugal captain will be on penalty and free-kick duties for his beloved country.

    What Are the Best Euro 2020 Group Bets?

    Italy are strong favourites to win Group A. It’s easy to see Roberto Mancini’s side finishing top of the pile ahead of Switzerland, Wales and Turkey. Although, perhaps the Azzurri shouldn’t be short odds-on considering that the Swiss and Turks were tough to beat when it came to qualifying. Why not take a look at the Football game fixtures for Euro 2020 here.

    Belgium will be a popular pick to win Group B. It might be worth chancing them in a Straight Forecast bet with Denmark considering that Russia might struggle to get points against either team. Finland are the rank outsiders and are heavily reliant on the firepower of Teemu Pukki.

    The Netherlands will be happy with their Group C draw and they’re heavy favourites to secure the top berth. Ukraine potentially giving them the most to think about. Austria might also be in contention although North Macedonia are expected to finish bottom of the pile. Check out our William Hill Football betting section to learn more about the type of football bets available.

    Easy Group for England

    Despite England being in the same group as Croatia and Scotland, they’re expected to rack up lots of points. The Three Lions are likely to be a popular accumulator pick for many. While the same can be said of Spain who are in the same group as Poland, Sweden and Slovakia.

    Finally, Group F will definitely be regarded as the Group of Death. It features none other than Germany, France and Portugal clashing for a place in the last sixteen. Bookmakers have a slight preference for the French although the real shame is that Hungary are 40/1 to win the group.
