The Dutch are always a popular pick to break through and win one of these major tournaments, but seven or so months out, I think the Oranje have a shot at making some noise this summer," Fallica said. "Assuming they finish second to France in their group, that likely puts them in a Round of 16 match with Slovakia or Romania.
Portugal would be the highest-rated potential quarterfinal opponent, and in the semis could be Germany — which hasn't been great in the last few international tournaments — or Spain. With depth and strength in the midfield and on defense, this Dutch side could make a very deep, dark-horse run.
PICK: Netherlands (+1600) to win UEFA Euro 2024

Croatia reached the semifinals of last year’s World Cup with a squad almost entirely different from the one that finished runner-up four years earlier. Then last June, the Croats lost the UEFA Nations League finals on penalties.
Having accrued so much major tournament experience, this battle-tested, young (aside from ageless captain Luka Modrić) and above all supremely talented Croatian side could be ready to take the ultimate step and win the Euros for the first time.
PICK: Croatia (+4000) to win UEFA Euro 2024

Italy won the 2020 title, beating England 3–2 in a penalty shootout following a 1–1 draw. The tournament was played in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Germany and Spain are tied for most Euro titles with three each, followed by Italy and France (two each).
Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma was the 2020 Player of the Tournament, becoming the first goalkeeper to win the award.
Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo won the top scorer award in 2020 with five goals and one assist.
Here are some background information on the tournament from FOX Sports Research:
– Germany is taking part in its 14th UEFA European Championship, more than any other team.
– Portugal is taking part in its ninth UEFA Euros tournament, including eight in a row since 1996.
– France is taking part in its 11th European Championship, including nine in a row, the second-longest current run after Germany.
– Belgium is taking part in its seventh European Championship. It’s the first time they’ve qualified for three consecutive editions of the tournament.
– Spain is taking part in its 12th European Championship. Spain is the only nation to have won it back-to-back (2008, '12).
– England is taking part in its 11th European Championship. No team has played as many games in the tournament without winning it (38 matches).
– Denmark is making their 10th appearance. Denmark won the tournament in 1992, which they qualified for after Yugoslavia was disqualified as a result of war in the Balkans.
– Netherlands is taking part in its 11th European Championship. They last won the tournament in 1988, beating the USSR in the final (2-0).
– Croatia is taking part in its seventh European Championship and sixth in a row. Since Croatia's first participation in 1996, it has reached the knockout phase four out of six times but never progressed beyond the quarterfinals.
– Czechia is taking part in its 11th European Championship (Czechoslovakia included), including eight in a row since 1996. Only Germany (14) and France (nine) are currently on longer runs.
– This is Italy’s 11th appearance in the European Championship – only Germany and Spain have won the tournament more times than the Azzurri (1968, 2020).
– As an independent nation, Serbia qualified for the European Championship for the first time. They competed as Yugoslavia five times, finishing second in 1960 and 1968.
– Switzerland is taking part in its sixth European Championship and third in a row. It’s also the first time Switzerland has qualified for six consecutive major international tournaments (World Cup and Euros) – over the past 20 years, it failed to qualify for a major tournament on only one occasion (Euro 2012).
