The UEFA European Championship is always a massive draw, situated exactly halfway through each World Cup cycle and satiating every football fan’s appetite for high-leverage international matches in the summer months.
With the biggest club leagues on a break, Euro 2024 sees many of the top stars from across Europe challenge for a highly coveted trophy and four years of bragging rights.
Defending champions Italy won the most recent title in a COVID-delayed tournament in 2021, despite having failed to qualify for the World Cup two years earlier. But they are out in 2024, after being beaten by Switzerland in the Round of 16.
The Sporting News brings you all the updated odds for today’s games, as well as the most up-to-date futures for who is most likely to win the tournament, given the results already completed to this point.

Spain vs. Germany prediction, odds
Riding with the host nation given the history at this tournament is a smart pick. No matter how good Spain have been, home support is a huge advantage in soccer and is not to be overlooked. Julian Nagelsmann’s side were tested vs. Denmark in the Round of 16 but once they clicked in the second half, they rarely needed to get out of first gear.

Portugal vs. France
France have struggled for goals at this tournament but have been good defensively. In fact, they’ve allowed an Expected Goals Against (xGA) tally of just 2.63 at Euro 2024 — the lowest of any side in the quarterfinal, and second lowest at the tournament overall after Serbia (2.57).
Portugal appeared to force their attacks, and Cristiano Ronaldo was ridiculously wasteful, vs. Slovenia, often putting himself before his team — which nearly sent them packing.
Masked man Kylian Mbappe hasn’t been at it since his broken nose, and Les Bleus’ attacking threat often relies on his individual brilliance. This one could come down to which superstar turns up.
