morrie21 Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 With the Euros almost upon us I thought it would be a bit of fun to try and predict the 16 teams that will emerge from the groups. With only 8 teams being eliminated at this stage everyone should feel optimistic about getting out of the group. 4 points will get you through and occasionally 3 points are enough as if memory serves Portugal got through their group in 2016 with 3 points and ended up winning the whole tournament. Anyway have a go if you like and post your predictions, it might give us a bit of extra interest as the group matches are unfolding. my attempt Italy, Switzerland, Turkey, Belgium, Denmark, Netherlands, Austria, Ukraine, England, Scotland, Croatia, Spain, Sweden, France, Portugal, Germany.

Aye, possibly although it's hard to just games from different eras. But I would say there isn't much in it. Neither of those are the best one ever IMHO, though.

I've put a fiver on England to win as a jinx and been sending offside rule tutorials to Werner over Twitter for the best part of a week but aside from that it's cross your fingers/ clench the sphincter time!
