Euro 2024: Group A – preview, offers and predictions

Who is progressing from Group A?! 🤔#EUROpredictor | #Betano

Who is in Group A?

This is perhaps the easiest group to predict according to most bookies and fans. Hosts Germany, the three-time winners, the three-time runners-up, who have qualified more than any other side, are pitted against neighbours Switzerland, Hungary and Scotland.

Germany will take on Scotland in the first game of the tournament in Munich on June 14 but it’s likely to be their clash with Hungary in Stuttgart five days later, and the final-day clash with Switzerland in Frankfurt on June 23 which will determine the order of Group A.

Germany, along with England in Group C, are heavy odds on to finish top of their group and the shortest price with the bookies to win all their group games.

This, however, is a new Germany, and although they have home advantage, it’s worth taking a deeper dive before slapping Die Mannschaft in your accumulators.

 

Should Germany really be heavy odds-on to win the group?

Well, it’s Germany, right? Winning is in their DNA. And they are at home.

Well, it’s England, not Germany, who go into Euro 2024 as favourites, you might have heard. There is more than just the patriotic pound behind that, the form of the likes of Harry Kane, Jude Bellingham and Phil Foden this season, under the brightest of lights in club football, is a solid foundation upon which the Three Lions can build their hopes.

However England have never won a Euros, they lost in the final, at Wembley of all places, last time out. Reigning champions Italy are part of a quartet, along with Spain, France and Germany, who have won 10 of the 16 European Championships between them.

Germany have been relegated to the tag of ‘dark horses’ for the title this time around. Germany. Dark Horses. In a home tournament. Incredible.

But there are reasons for it. The past 10 years have not been kind to Germany. Since they thrashed the hosts on their way…
