European Championship 2012 odds

The latest European Championship 2012 odds suggest that Russia, Spain, England and Germany will win their respective groups at Euro 2012

Euro 2012 takes place in less than six months and already talk has turned to who will be winning the Championships in Poland and Ukraine this summer. 

The current favourites are reigning champions Spain and they have European Championship 2012 odds of 5/2 with Ladbrokes. This is understandable as the Spanish, led by a strong Barcelona contingent, have been the dominant force in not just European but also world football in recent years. They won the 2012 World Cup in South Africa and will clearly be the team to beat in Polkraine.

However, there are question marks over Vicente Del Bosque’s side, particularly as they are likely to be without record goalscorer David Villa and so many will feel that the value in the bookmakers’ European Championship 2012 odds lies elsewhere.

A popular choice amongst those betting on the winner is Germany, who were the beaten finalists at Euro 2008 and reached the quarter finals of World Cup 2010. Joachim Low’s side play at a high tempo and were fantastic in qualifying although they have a tough group, having been paired with Netherlands, Portugal and Denmark. 

Germany’s current European Championship 2012 odds are around 7/2 with Netherlands available at 15/2. The two sides meet in the second match in Group B and many people will want to see how that game pans out before committing to either team. That could be sensible although the European Championship 2012 odds for both will, undoubtedly, have changed by that point.

Then there is England. Fabio Capello has resigned and it looks like Harry Redknapp is going to take over the Three Lions for Euro 2012 but as yet England’s European Championship 2012 odds are unchanged. This may surprise many people but it is ultimately players, not managers, that win major international tournaments and at the moment England are simply not good enough.

There are question marks over veteran players such as John Terry, Rio Ferdinand, Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard while Wayne Rooney is suspended for the opening two matches of the tournament. England’s European Championship 2012 odds of 10/1 at Stan James may appear generous but there is good reason for that.

Instead of placing a patriotic punt it could be better to take a chance on an outsider in Polkraine and Euro 2012 Odds Ladbrokes are 22/1 that Russia triumph this summer, or even 80/1 on Sweden, look worth a small punt.
