Either England or France are the most likely to win the UEFA Euro 2024 scheduled to begin on Friday, June 14, as per predictions made by Opta Supercomputer. Apart from these two nations, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands, Italy, and Belgium are remaining favourites, according to Opta Supercomputer.
Opta Supercomputer shows that England has the maximum percentage of 19.9 per cent, followed by France 19.1 per cent.
Hosts Germany has been awarded 12.4 per cent, Spain 9.6 per cent, Portugal 9.2 per cent, Netherlands 5.1 per cent, Italy 5 per cent, and Belgium got 4.7 per cent.
Half of Gareth Southgate's England squad for Euro 2024 have never played at a major tournament but captain Harry Kane said that everyone who made the cut deserved their place and there is enough experience in their ranks to be successful in Germany.
Harry Maguire, who has 63 caps, and Jack Grealish (36 caps) were among those omitted as Southgate trimmed his squad to 26 players for the June 14-July 14 European Championship.
Meanwhile, Harry Kane said England's shock 1-0 defeat against Iceland could be a "nice wake-up call", showing the scale of the task ahead of them at Euro 2024.
Gareth Southgate's men are among the favourites to win the tournament in Germany but Friday's farewell party at Wembley fell flat and the players were booed off in a half-empty stadium.
Iceland took an early lead through Jon Dagur Thorsteinsson and the visitors then had the better chances to extend their advantage as the hosts toiled at both ends of the pitch.
England captain Kane knows lessons have to be learned ahead of their Group C opener against Serbia in Gelsenkirchen on Sunday.
30-year-old Kane said despite the defeat there was a lot of justified optimism among England fans that the Euro 2020 finalists could go one better this year.
