The Euro 2024 group stage has come to an end, leaving us with a mix of emotions, laughter, and tears. As we shift our focus to the knockout stages, it's worth noting that only Croatia failed to advance among the top ten European teams in FIFA rankings.

Opta's supercomputer has updated its predictions for the Euros based on the group stage results.

Underdogs and long shots

Georgia, who managed to defeat Portugal in the group stage, has only a 0.13% chance of winning Euro 2024 and a mere 17.56% chance of making it to the quarter-finals against Spain.

England remains the favourite

Despite a lacklustre performance in the group stage, England is still considered the favourite to win Euro 2024, with a 19.12% chance. The supercomputer even predicts a 38.2% probability of England reaching the final. Before the tournament began, France was neck and neck with England as favourites; however, their odds have now dropped to 13.26%.

Germany and Spain follow closely

Tournament hosts Germany are now second favourites after two wins and a draw in the group stage, with a 16.09% chance of success. Spain is close behind as the only team to win all three group games without conceding a goal, boasting a 15.41% chance of victory.

Other contenders

Portugal has a 12.48% chance of repeating their Euro 2016 success, while Netherlands' odds stand at just 6.73%. Reigning champions Italy (4.46%) and Belgium (2.09%) have slim chances of winning according to the supercomputer.
