Euro 2028: Preview

Spain’s recent success at the 2026 World Cup in North America cemented their status as the best international football team on the planet.

They conceded just one goal in eight games at the tournament and will be a tough nut to crack at the 2028 European Championship.

Spain previously won consecutive continental titles in 2008 and 2012. They are the only nation in the history of the tournament to achieve the feat.

Online bookmakers rate France as the team most likely to topple Spain at Euro 2028 and it is difficult to argue with that viewpoint.

Les Bleus reached the semi-final of the World Cup this summer and will be eager to make their mark under new manager Zinedine Zidane.

France improved under previous boss Didier Deschamps, but he was ultimately only able to guide them to one major trophy during his time in charge.

Zidane’s track record of success as a player and in club management makes him the ideal man to build on the foundations Deschamps established.

England are also prominent in the outright betting for Euro 2028 despite their penchant for repeatedly coming up short in major tournaments.

The Three Lions blew a golden opportunity to reach the World Cup final this summer and make limited appeal as a betting proposition at Euro 2028.

Germany could be dangerous if new manager Jurgen Klopp can inspire improvement out of a squad which has underachieved in recent years.

His unerring ability to build winning cultures and maximise the talent at his disposal makes him the ideal man to lead the four-time world champions into a new era.

Klopp knows how to inspire a squad to give everything for the cause while also winning over supporters. He is also adept at getting the media onside.

He has consistently demonstrated an ability to maximise his teams’ strengths while masking their weaknesses. If the players buy into his methods, Germany could be a good bet to win Euro 2028.
