⚽ UEFA Euro 2024 in Germany ⚽ - Qualifiers➡Group Stage➡1/8➡QF➡HF➡FINAL

[fuguebtc]

Spain will remain the favorite team when they face France, especially since their level of confidence is getting bigger after successfully getting rid of Germany. The way they played when they beat Germany was very classy, ​​the Spanish squad this time showed something different from before. Even though the core squad contains many young, inexperienced players, their presence actually makes Spain stronger. France will have difficulty facing Spain, I think Germany's defense is stronger than France, the Spanish players will try to open the French defense area to score goals.

I agree with you, Spain is the favorite team to win against France because they have defeated stronger opponents in this tournament. Spain defeated Italy, Croatia, and Germany, they won against these strong teams, and I don't think France will be able to stop them in the next game, however, since the start of this tournament France has only scored three goals, one was a penalty against Poland. France, in my opinion, is a weak team in this tournament since they drew with Poland, a team that every opponent defeated in the group stage, they were just lucky to win the penalty shootout against Portugal. Spain on the other hand has scored 11 goals since the start of this tournament and has not draw any of their games, which is why I am very confident in their game, but if France wins, I believe they will be lucky with how Spain has performed.

Why France is unable to perform well despite having such a strong squad is a mystery. France's attack of Mbnappe, Griezmann, Giroud, Dembele, KOla Muani and Thuram are all very talented. Also French midfield players Camavinga, Rabiot, Kante and Tchouameni are all playing for big and renowned clubs in Europe. All are talented and experienced players. France's defense also has players like Kounde, Saliba and Theo. It would not be wrong to say that France is the strongest team in Europe.

But the main strength of Spain's squad is the understanding between the players is very good. The players have been able to adapt themselves very well to Coach Fuente's match strategy. Williams and Yamal are also able to perform well. There are many star players in the France squad, but the understanding between the players is not good. Spain team on the other hand is not very experienced but the understanding between the players is very good.

[Rabata]

With good defense system, France has a good foundation for their defensive prioritizing approach and can beat Spain in the semi final with an OG from Spanish player or beat Spain through penalties. Spain has Unai Simon, a good goalkeeper for penalties but to win it, they need their players shot well too. French players shown that they were well prepared for penalties and did it with high confidence.

Why do I feel like everyone is expecting that Spain against France match will lead to extra times, many people and analysts are saying the game will be very closed from both sides and we won’t see any opportunities of scoring. Personally, I would say that one of the teams will score very early and the match will become very open for both teams to score.
Both teams have strong defense, beside tricky attacking gameplay.

If I would bet on this match, my money will go to Spain for having a better organized team this year, young players with good speed and skills to beat France. Mbapee camarades are not in shape for defending against Spain. So I prefer taking the risk of betting on Spain with good outcome than France that I would say have more chances in penalties.

According to the player's condition we must say that Spain is better. In this tournament who are ahead in the performance of the each players in recent times are able to retain the victory. This is just speculation though. But considering the statistics, of course, Spain cannot be keep down in any way. Another big problem is that France's Kylian Mbappe is not physically fit. He has to play with a mask because of his broken nose. As much as he wants to play well, it must cost him to give his best. Moreover, there will be panic in the field when the game starts. France coach thinks that Spain will definitely be under pressure if Mbappe is on the field. But I would definitely bet on Spain.

What a boring days are the ones with no games in it.

It is undeniable that for now only the Euro and Copa America are our only spectacles in the end after this event is over then we have to wait at least a month to return to see a soccer match where the new season will start, but you can't blame it either because the players also need refreshing or just gathering with their families after the tight competition they live in, especially competitions between countries like this are sure to increase their fatigue in terms of mental and energy.

Penalties? Maybe is starting to be a normal one in this euro 2024.

One more thing, the boring performance of some big teams or championship candidates is also a common thing in this competition
England, France and even some of the eliminated teams such as Belgium also look much lower in terms of performance when compared to previous events because their performance seems ordinary for a team with the highest probability of winning.
Hopefully the semi-finals will be more interesting because honestly for the quarter-finals I felt that the Turkey vs Netherlands and Spain vs Germany matches were quite interesting, the rest I didn't see any really exciting matches.

[Velvet78]

What a boring days are the ones with no games in it.

About the games who comes, for me are gonna be like the last games in this euros, pure fierce games and pure battle games, no one is gonna take so much advantage and i expect to see at least one draw after the regular time.

Penalties? Maybe is starting to be a normal one in this euro 2024.

Euro 2024 has been fun so far although some favourites have been playing a boring game.    I'm really like I don't want it to end. But all good things must come to an end...

We are still really lucky that this summer hasn't been boring thanks to Euro 2024. Otherwise we give a really long break to the leagues you know. After Euro 2024 ends there won't be a long time period left for new season to start. The qualifiers phase of Champions League and other European tournaments would start soon after that.

Coming back to Euro 2024, I hope to see most deserving teams reaching the finale. It is Spain from the upper side of the bracket.    I can't say either England or Netherlands are great but I think it will be England to make it.

[Ryu_Ar1]

But if this happens then it is likely that the champion will be Spain because looking at the history that the Netherlands still cannot change at this time, no matter how good their performance is and no matter how strong the players they have in the end they are always runner-up specialists for state competitions.

It's just that it is also very good to expect this condition to occur because although the semi-finals are still not done but seeing the performance of England and France for this euro is actually quite monotonous and it would be better if Spain and the Netherlands are in the final which is a match that will present more interesting things I think.

However, looking at the current probabilities even though the performance of England and France is still very bad but the probability of them remaining strong to be in the final at the euro this time.

The Netherlands are being underestimated in this game against England, I say this because the odds are not balanced, they are in England's favor because they are looking at the England squad, but when we look at the h2h involving these two teams, we have a scenario in which the Netherlands had more victories in games against England



https://livescores.biz/h2h/england-vs-netherlands#european-championship

That's why I see the Netherlands with a chance of reaching the final. and in the case of Spain against France, in the last 5 games in which both teams faced each other, Spain won in 3 games, France won in just 1 game and they drew in 1 game. So I see Spain as having a greater chance of also reaching the final. Now if Spain and the Netherlands reached the final, I see Spain being champions.

It's pretty good if we look at this with the statistics of their matches that have happened but looking at the year of playing that even the last time they met was in 2019 meaning that it's been 5 years since they met so I don't think the statistics will be too applicable.

But looking at England's current performance and seeing from what the Netherlands showed actually I expected the Netherlands to be in the final even though in the end they also had to fight the runner up curse for competitions like the Euro or world cup.

It cannot be denied that until now England still have the greatest probability of becoming champions but indeed from the group phase to the quarter-finals their performance was not too convincing and if you look at the opponents faced actually this match against Switzerland and the Netherlands is their test because previously they did not really find commensurate opponents in the sense of being equally strong in terms of level and quality of players.

[shinratensei_]

Spain has a drama starts by their captain, Alvaro Morata.

He threatens to QUIT after the tournament over 'nonsense' critics - and hints his family want to leave the country too.

Is it a true drama or a boycott from Spain to mislead England preparation before the important semi final match?

I feel it's hard to believe that a captain can do this before an important match. Alvaro Morata is not a world class striker for many years and in Euro 2024, he is given the captain band maybe because he has more experience than many young players in Spain squad for Euro 2024.

It's not a drama, but it's a true story about him. Spanish fans are being too harsh on him. I know how Morata felt. He had given his all to bring Spain to the top. But, Spanish fans are used to winning in club and country. This makes them have a very high standard for a player in their national team. then again, they saw morata as a burden for the club.

But, It's coincidence with acmilan's rumor to recruit morata as a new player.

Since the teams played according to the cup format, we saw exciting matches in terms of competition, but we also saw boring matches and very few goals. Now we are in the semi-finals and no team can afford any mistakes. 5-man defenses are in vogue for some teams, but now I think we will see a bit more attacking variations, especially France, who need to go back to their usual game, because this defensive tactic won't work against Spain. Spain will find a goal somehow. France can't use Mbappe effectively and Deschamps will have to try something different if they want to reach the final.

Spain have been one of the best team in the ongoing European Championship if not the best and their ability to eliminate the host nation Germany who was also incredible with their performances makes them one of the favorite teams that can win the European title this summer. France on the other side have been short of the expectations of many because before the kickoff of the the tournament, France was regarded as the favorites because of the quality of players in the France squad as well as the depth of the team. Since the start of the tournament, France have never scored a goal from open play which I think is another reason Spain will will go into their semi finals game against them as the favorite.
Fir Kylian Mbappe who I know will post a big threat to the Spanish team, I think Spain have the needed quality of defenders to stop him even when I know it's always difficult to stop Kylian Mbappe. It'll be a very big game between the two teams but one thing is sure and that's the fact that one team will leave the tournament after that game

A draw quote is suspicious - the odds are below 3, which means an extremely high probability compared to games on average. BTTS is listed at 1.77 lol so we shouldn't expect a game with a lot of goals. Probably the most correct choice is to bet on a 0-0 draw with odds of 7.90
Who would have thought that the play of such dangerous (on paper haha) teams would be assessed so poorly.

[BALIK]

I see no chance of underestimating the Netherlands team. This group is very strong. I know that the England team has more star players. England have good players like Bellingham and Kane in their squad. Also Saka and Foden are also able to perform well. England's attack is slightly stronger than the Netherlands'. But the Netherlands team is also relatively strong. However, so far the Netherlands team has not faced any other big team except France.

The Netherlands team is ahead in the statistics of the match between the Netherlands and England. The interesting thing is that out of the last 5 matches played against England, the Netherlands team has won all four matches. I don't know why England teams have always performed poorly in the past even against Netherlands.

[baeva]

Even if England by some miracle make it to the final I think the match will still be boring. Yes, I would like to see Spain in the final, they play quite well and never once in this championship have not shown weakness - always fought to the end, the last match against Germany is proof of that. In general, France is not so bad, they are also playing well, so if they go through, I don't see any reason to be disappointed

I thought myself only who noticed that England whenever facing another opponent, the match end up being boring, less chances, less opportunities and surely less goals. They dominated a very safe gameplay, afraid of starting to attack and creating opportunities for them starts whenever they get late in score.
Spain in the other hand are playing great football with young players, not afraid of going full attack and doing their best to score first. It is the only team which is being fun to watch, and France right after it, although they miss many players which are
lacking attack skills. France throwing all the responsibility on Mbapee is not okay, then not trusting him in penalties as they have did against Portugal.

England don't have a lot of old players either, but their style of play in this Championship is stalling. That is, they pull the game to the very last, trying to exhaust the opponent's strength and only then start to act and score, so it turns out that they have all matches with a minimum score or won at all in overtime. I really hope they won't be able to use this tactic against the Netherlands

Even the Netherlands is better than England even though this squad has star players in it but still their performance is still considered bad because of the almost boring game during this tournament, it is good that England can qualify for the semifinals even some other predictions think England will be defeated by Switzerland the results are not like that.

I don't know why England are still bad even though they have never lacked anything, it's just that what we see is that England are not better than Spain and other teams, now that England are in the semifinals, it could be that the game will be different so England can win to advance to the semifinals.

In terms of their performance, Spain have demonstrated a remarkable game play, one that many onlookers have found impressive. Their mastery in managing the game flow while being able to find the back of the net at critical junctures has left quite an impact. The recent win over Germany, who also ranks as one of the top contenders in this championship, speaks volumes about their caliber and the hunger for victory that drives them. On the other hand, France seems to be struggling despite boasting an ensemble of exceptional talents with luminaries like Kylian Mbappe. A lackluster display indeed. Their failure to convert open play chances into goals presents a glaring impediment that they must address if they aspire to outshine Spain. Playing from open play: this is a problem; they need to overcome if they are looking forward to beat Spain in their next match.

The semi-final clash involving Spain and France is sure to catch the eye. Their storied pasts in the realm of international football ensure this game will serve as a litmus test for both sides. Spain, boasting cohesion in their collective play along with a stalwart defense, seem to have an upper hand as favorites for this fixture; yet, France, with its constellation of star players, always looms capable of springing a surprise and overturning expectations placed upon them.

Every semi-final match is very difficult to predict now, in fact I have to admit and agree that in all probability the penalties would seem reasonable to determine who will progress to the final. The France vs Spain match is the most exciting one to look forward to, but the England vs Netherlands match will also be great.

France and England have basically not performed very well so far, but both teams have a lot of good players who in turn can be dangerous for any opponent. Spain and the Netherlands have to be very careful, but each team should not underestimate each other and say something that is not important to their opponent.

[ZAINmalik75]

~~
I think Spain is the favorite. Spain's match strategy is good. Young players are very confident. And for these two reasons, I want Spain to advance.

Yeah, definitely Spain is a big favorite to win the UEFA EURO Cup, and soon they will be champions because from my point of view Spain has good players in their squads. Every player has the ability to do his job very well, and they also have a good tactical stance. Put all these points in perspective, and I strongly believe that Spain will be the champion of the tournament. Besides that France also has the possibility of reaching the final, but I think France doesn't have any good players who take responsibility on their shoulders, like in the midfield area. I mean they don't have any strong midfielders who've contributed to the match too well, i.e., Paul Pogba, Kanta, etc. While spain has good midfielders as compared to France, and everyone knows that if a team has a strong midfield then they have a high chance of playing the match with a dominant performance....

England were lucky against Switzerland so they won. Despite having such a strong midfield and attack, England's players managed only 3 on target shots against Switzerland. The defense of the Netherlands is also very strong. That's why I think it's very difficult for England to win against Netherlands.

France and England were the two teams that reached the semi-finals with luck. Especially, France abnormally reached the semi-finals with only 3 goals, 2 of which were scored by the opponents' own goal and one was scored from a penalty. Now, I think both England and France will be eliminated in the semi-finals and they will not be able to advance to the final. They may be considered successful at Euro 2024, but I think they had an absolutely unsuccessful tournament.

This was the exact situation that happened between Germany and Spain. It was all similar odd selection by the bookmakers. And you're analysis is what actually played in that match. Some people were expecting both teams to score in the match between Germany and France forgetting that it is Euro competition and not local league and they are already in the quarter finals. If full time draw will be very risky, HT draw could also be a good selection for bet.
But I do much avoid this type of matches, unless I decide to gamble for fun. In reality and both on paper, Spain is more formidable than France and it would be so unfair if France scale through while the mist consistent team from the beginning of this tournament goes home.

The defense of the Netherlands is also very strong. That's why I think it's very difficult for England to win against Netherlands.

The reason why England did not put up an impressive performance was because of the coach's strategy. I often see England as a boring team in a match, even though they have a very strong squad compared to other teams. Strikers, attacking midfielders, wingers, midfielders, defenders are all top players, but the team's performance is very far from expectations.

I can't expect England to suddenly play well in the semifinals, but I think England will reach the final at Euro 2024 and win the title. Even though England is boring in many ways, I still support England to qualify for the final and win the title. It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks about England and its odds, but England is one of the favorites in this tournament. In my opinion, England and France will reach the final.

England apparently play in the mode of saving forces, because the second match as soon as England concede, they immediately after a couple of minutes to get back and bring the matter to extra time. The England national team has an excellent selection of players, perhaps the best since the time when Lampard and Gerrard played, but the game England shows boring, but still to the semifinals team Southgate reached the semifinals. Of course now even after the defeat to Holland Southgate will not be fired, but I think that England can beat Holland, although I also expect an equal game.
But I think that the champion of Europe will be determined in the match Spain-France.
