The 2024 European Cup is about to start. Who will stand out this summer? The well-known data agency OPTA gave their answer. Their supercomputer has simulated up to 10,000 times and finally showed that England will be the biggest favorite in this tournament.

 

According to the supercomputer's prediction, England has become the most favored team with a probability of 19.9%. In the last tournament, Southgate's team made it all the way to the final and lost to Italy. This time, the supercomputer predicts that they may do better; the most likely team to stop England from winning the championship is France, with a probability of 19.1%. In addition, the host Germany (12.4%), traditional giants Spain (9.6%) and Portugal (9.2%) are also regarded as strong contenders for the European Cup championship; while the Netherlands (5.1%), defending champion Italy (5%) and Belgium (4.7%) may find it difficult to get involved in the final championship, but the supercomputer has not ignored their possible opportunities.

England has rich experience in the European Cup, having participated in a total of 38 games so far. The probability of reaching the quarter-finals for the third time in the past four European Cups has reached 70%, and their probability of reaching the semi-finals is 48.2%. The probability of the Three Lions reaching the finals in a row has reached 30% (31.1%), and there is a 19.9% ​​probability of winning the championship. With Harry Kane, the top scorer in the top five leagues, Bellingham who just won the Champions League, and Foden, the best player of the Premier League season, the Three Lions with a luxurious lineup are definitely a nightmare for defensive players in the European Cup.
