Two of Europe\u2019s powers are grouped together but France has shown they have been the better<\/p>\n\n\n\n
side of late. They made the 2022 World Cup Final and beat the Netherlands twice in qualifying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Austria and Poland round out Group D but all signs point to Les Bleus coming out on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Group Winner: France -185<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n After a heartbreaking loss to Argentina at the 2022 World Cup France will look to make another<\/p>\n\n\n\n deep run, this time in Germany. Les Bleus are the second choice to win Euro 2024 as they look<\/p>\n\n\n\n for their third title at this tournament. France are led by Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 and Antoine Griezmann<\/p>\n\n\n\n but also have a talented young crop of players. They\u2019ll open against Austria, then face the<\/p>\n\n\n\n Netherlands, in what likely determines who wins the group, and Poland will be France\u2019s final<\/p>\n\n\n\n opponent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Key player: Kylian Mbapp\u00e9<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n He is no stranger to performing on the biggest stage as Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 scored a hat-trick in<\/p>\n\n\n\n Qatar in the final. He will be counted on to lead France again and was the first player in<\/p>\n\n\n\n Europe\u2019s top five leagues to be directly involved in 40+ goals across all competitions in 2023\/24<\/p>\n\n\n\n and it only took him 34 games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Group Winner: Netherlands +275<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s been 36 years since the Netherlands won its only major international trophy, the 1988 Euros.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Two years ago they were eliminated in the quarters in Qatar and at the 2020 Euros, were upset<\/p>\n\n\n\n in the round of 16 by the Czech Republic after going 3-0 in the group stage. Ronald Koeman<\/p>\n\n\n\n has some big names on his roster and could gel into a dangerous side especially into the<\/p>\n\n\n\n knockout stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Key player: Memphis Depay<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Memphis Depay is already second in most goals for the Dutch with 44. Since moving to Atl\u00e9tico<\/p>\n\n\n\n Madrid his production has waned but scored some timely goals for his club. He\u2019ll be the focal<\/p>\n\n\n\n point of Holland\u2019s attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Group Winner: Austria +820<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Austria makes its third straight appearance at the Euros, reaching the knockout stage for the<\/p>\n\n\n\n first time in 2020. They would lose to eventual champions, Italy. Austria was impressive in<\/p>\n\n\n\n qualifying finishing 6-1-1 with its only loss to Belgium. There is some experience on this squad<\/p>\n\n\n\n and Ralf Rangnick, the former Manchester United interim head coach, is in charge. But Austria<\/p>\n\n\n\n is in tough and its best chance to advance is likely as a top third-place finisher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Group Winner: Poland +1200<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Poland had to qualify through a playoff but are playing in their fifth straight major tournament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They were knocked out in the round of 16 in Qatar by France. And just like Austria, Poland is<\/p>\n\n\n\n likely aiming for a third-place finish, and hoping it\u2019s enough to get them through.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Two of Europe\u2019s powers are grouped together but France has shown they have been the better side of late.
