Euro 2022 Tournament Preview and Football Odds
Hosts England will be quietly confident heading into the tournament as they look to win their first ever major trophy. The Lionesses are second only to favourites Spain in the odds at 4/1 to claim the crown, and their group will have provided an additional boost to morale. Norway will provide some stiff competition, but England will be expected to cruise through a group consisting of Austria, ranked at 21st in the world and Euro debutants Northern Ireland.
England have also been aided by the sheer strength of some of the other groups, meaning some strong contenders could find themselves dumped out in the group stage. Current 15/4 favourites Spain are up against Germany, who have won six of the last seven competitions, and Denmark, who finished runners-up in Euro 2017. The top two from this group will face off against the frontrunners from England’s group.
Group C also has some talented teams, with reigning champions Netherlands and world number two Sweden up against Switzerland and Portugal. These two will be desperate to top the group in order to avoid playing likely winners of Group D, France, in the next round. France are many people’s picks to have a strong tournament this year, and they are currently tied as third favourite with Netherlands at 5/1.
When looking at the tournament odds, it’s hard to look past favourites Spain. They have found themselves in what is probably the toughest group, but they could be set to go all the way. They dominated their qualifying group, winning seven of eight games, scoring 48 goals, and conceding just once. They have an incredibly strong squad, and of course the 2021 Ballon d’Or winner and World Player of the Year Alexia Putellas. The Barcelona star registered 18 goals and 15 assists in a title winning campaign, and she’ll be the one to watch out for in Euro 2022.
Euro 2022 Betting Tips
Spain to win Euro 2022 – 15/4
There’s a reason Spain are the favourites – their squad is littered with talent. Providing they can navigate a tricky group, they have the quality to go all the way.
Top goalscorer: Alexia Putellas – 11/1
There are a few good options when it comes to picking a top goalscorer, but we like the look of Alexia Putellas. She has had a simply outstanding individual campaign for Barcelona, and if Spain go deep into the tournament, her goalscoring capabilities from attacking midfield will be crucial.
England to win Euro 2022 – 4/1
This is one for the romantics. The Lionesses are still yet to claim a major trophy, but could this be their year on home soil? They have edged closer in recent years, achieving fourth place in the 2019 World Cup and losing out to eventual winners Netherlands in the Euro 2017 semi-finals. In front of a buzzing home crowd, they might just go all the way.
