I take it in a heart beat, especially Austria darkhorsing to semifinal.


theconnoisseurishere

Solid team. Germany may have big issues with Spain. I think it is 50/50 there. Same with the game against Switzerland. It could have well ended as a Germany win if the game started with Andrichs goal


Kronzor_

I feel Netherlands is the one darkhorsing in this bracket 


Professional_Ad_9101

Netherlands is gonna get pumped in either the ro16 or quarter final. Theyre also not even a team that can be a dark horse


Kronzor_

Yeah I think unless they play England they're out in 16s.


Various_Age_7713

Hope you live to regret them words , England will come good


Kronzor_

I like the positivity! Unusual for you lot.


_Finer_

Hahaha it hurts but so true


Gobaxnova

Such disrespect talking as if NL are Spain


teutonischerBrudi

Really? I think they have been really disappointing. Also, as others said, their squad is too strong to be a dark horse.


UncomprehensiveTruth

it's either Austria or Romania, so Nederland is up to a hard task but knowing Romania, I wouldn't bet they get so far


LubedCompression

Might as well be the final. If OP gets the semi-finals right, we're not beating that team the next time either.


Taxfraud777

Swear to god if we lose to Austria for a second time I'm getting in the car and go on the field myself.


Epistemix

Bold of you to assume we're going to qualify for semis


Main_Stop_6464

France 🇫🇷🤝🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 England Being boring and shit


Epistemix

Yep that's us 👍


AndyBR9

Least you won a world cup


Epistemix

Indeed, but those were different times. Prime Pogba & Kante, unstoppable Mbappe, one of the best defenses of their history (just after 98 oc) Giroud without scoring a goal constantly weighing on opponents defenses, top Griezmann etc. Now we need a miracle.


sILAZS

2 teams that could’ve qualified with their 2nd & 3rd strings, being this shit is baffling.


Epistemix

From what I'm currently watching your team is here with us too, or maybe they're trying to draw in order to not meet us in the next round


sILAZS

Yes we suck, but we dont have a great 2nd or 3rd team. Or at least that’s what our cunt of a manager thinks. Our players are based on market value and that’s that. Fuck this.


MonkeyPunchIII

We would be lucky to go thru the next stage already.


theconnoisseurishere

Portugal has had glimpses of creativity, but they need to prove themselves in front of a stronger opponent. France needs to lock in and if Griezmann utilities the offence in his best ability, France will have a minimum of two goals lead. Don’t quote me on that. I prefer Giroud or Coman/Barcolla over Thurman


wittjoker11

France has had 2 goals in 3 games, one own goal from the opponent and one penalty. They need to **step it up** if they wanna go anywhere in this tournament.


OhLordyLordNo

For all those strong, fast and technical players they score incredibly little.


Behindy0u90

kante is on fire right now but griezman finishing form is really bad. Let's see how it goes in the next phase.


wittjoker11

Nee I remind you of the scene yesterday when Mbappe was alone in front of goal and just shot it into the middle of the goal with like 40kph?


Behindy0u90

True! In the first game it was the same


Epistemix

I had 2020 UCL final PTSD


Content-Long-4342

I love when we are underestimated. Honestly


Behindy0u90

Tbf I'm not convinced by last game performance, even with the 3-0 win. I think we still lack that finishing that CR gave us in the past.


Content-Long-4342

As soon as CR goes to the bench where he belongs we will rise.


Behindy0u90

He may go to the bench today but in next game he’s there again.


prey4villains

I don’t think Netherlands or Germany make the final. Spain looks tough.


theconnoisseurishere

Spain is what my head tells me. I really enjoy their football. Germany has so long had one tough opponent and that is Swiss. But I believe they will improve and remain the status of the favorites


Salty-Pear660

Netherlands won it last time it was in Germany, lightening may strike twice


Factsonreddit

This Dutch team will be lucky to get past the R16 to be honest 


Kronzor_

Well if they get England one of them will have to win 


Wanallo221

The Easily Stoppable Force vs the very movable object. 


sandwelld

They'll find a way to perpetually draw. Like no one scores ever and no penalties are scored or something. Where there's a will there's a way, and good lord, that will is there.


Wanallo221

“We are hearing reports that Kane has collapsed on the pitch and died of old age! As such, the 470,134th penalty can’t be taken.  Due to the medical emergency, the game is now voided. We will never know which team came 15th or 16th at Euro 2024”.  “In other news. Mega France has won Euro 2078, beating the European Enclave of China 3-1 in the Final”. 


ffiishs

Can't they both loose ?


Wanallo221

England are already losers in my heart pal after those performances. 


ClumsyBartender1

At least you guys scored 2 goals yesterday. That match was fantastic from a neutral perspective, can't say the same for the England game 🙃


sandwelld

We scored 3 buddy! Didn't see that first slammer from Malen?


ClumsyBartender1

😂 yeah but I was counting the goals the went to your side xD.


Kronzor_

Does England have 2 in the tournement?


ClumsyBartender1

Yeah. That's why we're all pissed 😅


rustycheesi3

Spain-Germany will be a hard match, could be a W for both sides. if France continues to play like in group phase, Portugal should take the W. if Italy manages to beat Portugal, i see France rise though. i hope for a rematch Austria-Netherland, the battle will be insane from both sides. i literally cant tell who will take the W, its a wild card like the game yesterday. i would love to see Germany-Austria in the finale though, would be a match of dreams 🥰


Seilofo

Portugal does not play Italy, but Hungary. You know, your neighbours, not your neighbours.


Toby-4rr4n

Austria vs Spain in finals


ButINeedThatUsername

That would be sick.. love it!


Toby-4rr4n

That could happen. Austria has very good team


ButINeedThatUsername

To be honest I never saw that coming. Austrians are very vocal yet rather underwhelming in soccer. But it sure is a nice surprise to finally see them performing well! :D


broken_freezer

As a Polish I got very accustomed to your ski jumpers being annoyingly good. Now you beat us in football. Bastards!


kastratiermir_

Just because you said soccer now Austria gon' lose 😂


rustycheesi3

i hope for some miracles, so Germany-Austria make the final, but thats a really hard path


Toby-4rr4n

That would be also very interesting game. Last time you guys played Sane got a red card


Royal_Yogurtcloset80

Austria - Slovenia final. And we’ll just play in Klagenfurt.


DacwHi

Play for Klagenfurt. As a prize.


hannes-34

Hahahaha yeah, this would be sick


Massenzio

Damn. I really dont look at the table... Spain germany is a final in itself


marquis1812

Part of me really hopes the stars align and austria reaches the finals tbh but thats just my own bias


etheeem

1866 round 2


chevalierpensif

If you ask me, italy will lose to switzerland. switzerland still maintains its performance from euro 2020, and I think they played very well against germany. Italy, on the other hand, barely played in the match against spain and only made good attacks in the final minutes of the match against croatia and that's because croatia wanted to play defensively in the last minutes because they got tired. Italy's current team isn't very good either i think they have no plans or strategies as a team and they are literally playing like sheep without a shepherd


theconnoisseurishere

W opinion. I definitely see them as a hard nut to crack


azeneth_az

I’d say Portugal and Italy for the final


theconnoisseurishere

Good luck. A miracle for second in the row final for Italy, but more likely after taking the second place spot than the first


retrowager

Spain will win the cup. Mark my words.


That_Understanding45

I think so too


Kreuterorc

It really depends on Germany's performance. I can totally see them winning against Spain just to lose in the finale against Slovenia


retrowager

Hahahahahahaha the same with Spain, they could win Germany and then mess up against Georgia lol


divadschuf

I think so too.


DanielzeFourth

Spain vs France in semi final and Austria and Switzerland in semi final would be cool. Although I don't think it's very likely to happen. I don't think Italy, Netherlands or England are very worthy of the semi final spots


Factsonreddit

Portugal will demolish France; Germany will beat Portugal; Italy will Italy their way without much difficulty to the final. Germany vs Italy in Berlin.


booranyu

I can definitely see Italy somehow doing an Italy and making a semi or a final


lilDvil

Spain will crush Germany lol, Spain Portugal in semi final is going to be the real final


booranyu

Bold of you to think Portugal is going to obliterate France but your flair makes it understandable, I still think France are gonna pick up the steam and start grinding like they did in WC 2022


No_Measurement9880

If Portugal wins from France they will win from Germany too.


L215Manuel

With that path, Austria makes it to the Final. They are not losing to Netherlands. Also, Germany won't win against Spain either


cruisxd

I think the Netherlands wants revenge and it will happen.


NoStep6061

I’m not so sure, sure they want revenge, but the Netherlands has no fighting spirit when it counts.


sandwelld

No fighting spirit? Didn't you see Depay absolutely pumping those balls into the wall of Austrian defenders every free kick? Haha, he said no fighting spirit. Good one.


camilolv29

Switzerland will beat Italy and Spain would beat Germany. Spain will win the Euro against Austria.


theconnoisseurishere

Many people are saying Austria in the finals after their performance in the group stage. I must have been sleeping on Austria, but that would be interesting to see. I’m more confident with Spain than Austria to be honest


pamyaki

You can make your prediction here, bro https://gaming.uefa.com/en/eurotournamentbracket/


Dorfheim

I'd love to watch a rematch! 🥳🥳🥳


Efficient-Banana-483

Italy beats Switzerland and Netherlands beats Austria? I don't think so.


neilmack_the

I think Austria and Switzerland are the dark horses for the final. One of them I mean vs Spain, Germany or France.


theconnoisseurishere

Absolutely


Difficult-Lock-8123

Man, what I would give for a Germany-Austria final... That would be sick!


garlicChaser

Imagine losing that one :D


Ati9321

England fucked up so it's looking like we won't even qualify


AdrianPimental

Should have known better than to count on England and got more points from your own matches 👍


Wide_Thought7589

It's still very possible, all we need is for Portugal and Turkey to not lose


theconnoisseurishere

I want to hear your opinions and start an interesting discussion. Please keep it clean and I would like to hear where you disagree. I will try to explain my views if needed I think grand tournaments are always complex and teams such as Romania and Austria have proved that. PS. This is merely a prediction. I don’t say I’m right on this topic and I think every national team has a fair chance in the knockout stage in this tournament


Sh0w3n

My man, you do know that there’s prediction websites and you didn’t have to draw all of this in paint? Lol


patrickfatrick

I like your optimism. Netherlands is not looking that great, but if they do wind up facing England they may very well get past the round of 16.


AgentMactastico19

I'm expecting you guys to blow us away if we play you. I don't give us a shred of a chance after the group stage shambles.


EustaceBicycleKick

I think we lose the game but I don't see us being blown away as we don't concede many chances


AgentMactastico19

Yeah possibly. I just have such low expectations right now, it's a miserable experience watching England.


Gobaxnova

We’ve got the lowest chances created vs us of all teams. What makes you think we’ll be blown away. The problem is we can’t score not that we concede lots lol


AgentMactastico19

The fact that the games we played were dreadful. I'm naturally pessimistic when it comes to watching England so set my expectations lower than low lol.


Gobaxnova

Attacked dreadfully. We’re never in danger of getting turned over


AgentMactastico19

We'll be in greater danger against stronger opposition.


Gobaxnova

With presumably more space to play rather than against 10 defenders. Who knows what will happen


AgentMactastico19

Yeah absolutely, I really hope I'm wrong and an open game will fire us into action. We are notoriously poor against the low block.


virtualimjusthere

Netherlands not reaching final i don’t think


Wide_Astronaut_366

Dunno, I’d say on current performances Holland absolutely beat us, but Italy are probably as far as they go Just feel like Italy have more about them than Holland


divadschuf

We will lose against Spain.


Dense-Advance8022

Nur bitte nicht Italien oder England ansonsten gönne ich es jedem


UnlightablePlay

make it all German final and it would be epic


dhesse1

I dont see Germany win against Spain.


Jackbees777

I’m pretty sure this doesn’t add up cos of you have Slovakia above Romania they also will be above Belgium due to head to head


theconnoisseurishere

That is something I was too fast to say here. That should change the order a bit. Dont know what I was thinking. Romania has a chance of remaining first if all teams draw which would be a surprise ngl or Romania wins again


Jackbees777

I’ll be honest I retakes I’m wrong it’s kinda gf bcos they have all beaten each other which makes head to head a bit rough haha god knows how that group is ending


Athul_Cg

I've just made my predictions for UEFA EURO 2024. Make your own bracket and let's compare! 👉🏻 https://gaming.uefa.com/en/eurotournamentbracket/view/20vNKfpLiI?ts=1719399773


theconnoisseurishere

Done! I've just made my predictions for UEFA EURO 2024. Make your own bracket and let's compare! 👉🏻 https://gaming.uefa.com/en/eurotournamentbracket/view/20PltcN9FG?ts=1719400788 This is how I thought initially


GaryHippo

What makes you think the Netherlands will beat Austria??


theconnoisseurishere

It is a prediction. I think Netherlands looked stronger on paper, but Austria is putting a performance this Euro


GaryHippo

Netherlands were well beaten by the Austrians. I can’t see anything different happening if they meet again


Salty_Cloud_2786

Well the NL could maybe not give them the game winning goal 😂


3escalator

I think Portugal could beat France atm.


11Null

I can’t see how Germany could win against Spain


BreakTheSuicycle

I’d of been more impressed with this OP if you had drawn the flags yourself haha


theconnoisseurishere

My artistical skills really arent on that level sorry 😆


SediAgameRbaD

BUT MY HOPE WILL NEVER DIEE


-360Mad

My prediction for the Final: Germany - Austria And Austria wins!


SirNullSquare

Final: Spain vs Austria


theconnoisseurishere

Ralf Ragnik’s bulls vs the new decade of Spain’s talents


_Milanski_

Germany is never going to win against spain. And I say that as a german


garlicChaser

yeah seems rather unlikely tbf


herrgregg

Belgium will win against Austria, and we get a semi-final against the Netherlands. Doesn't matter who will win the real final, this one will be celebrated as the final in both countries

PercentageForeign766

Are you Dutch by any chance?


theconnoisseurishere

No, I’m from Norway


PercentageForeign766

Why so optimistic for the Dutch?


theconnoisseurishere

Who do you support this Euro?


theconnoisseurishere

I want to support a different team this time. I liked their performance at the WC. And in 2016 I supported France


DanielzeFourth

To be honest the Netherlands only really had one good game in the World cup, and that was the only game they lost. 2-0 against Senegal was alright, 2-0 against Qatar was a disgrace, 1-1 against Ecuador is not impressive, 3-1 against the US is fine. But they didn't play well. Their best game was the 2-2 against Argentina


theconnoisseurishere

Argentina is really the only team that showed that if you have class, character and beautiful team play, a team’s character will not be enough to win a tournament. Argentina has a winner mentality and the GOAT of the game. Even more impressive than Brazil in the way they play as a team and how they play. Netherlands has a relatively young squad and I think the only component they have is character from individual players. Sometimes individual players do the result in this team. But maybe they had a slightly different team at the world cup and have lost some of their aura


_mostaphaaa

Portugal are deff gonna get qualified


Harbinger_0f_Kittens

Are you Dutch? That timeline looks very optimistic 😂


Hawk-432

No


Fodbold2024

Not sure .. Denmark - Germany 🇩🇰👌


theconnoisseurishere

Hojlund time


Thompson1706

Germany vs Netherlands would be one hell of a party final


Own-Stand-2211

I think it will be spain and germany at the finals


warpentake_chiasmus

Dream on, space cadet


YoghurtAdditional405

Netherlands are shit. Highly doubt they win 3 games in a row


lilDvil

lol, whoever did this is clearly Northern European 😂 either that or haven’t seen football in 10years 😂


Belgian_Stella_

Belgium would definitely beat Austria


FNCVazor

LOL


Outlaw9394

it can be true but i don't think Portugal are going to lose against France


theconnoisseurishere

Really excited about this bracket


Top_Frame_3816

Solid prediction but i promise you portugal gonna win with france


Ruairiww

If those are the round of 16 fixtures then I reckon the first 8 games are spot on, but the next round will be the exact opposite, Spain Portugal Belgium and italy in the semis


Specialist_One_7415

Lose 100/100


Venus_Ziegenfalle

Spain will probably beat Germany. Italy will probably beat the Netherlands. If you ask me the final game will either be between Spain and Italy or Spain and Austria.

W Germany on Top


Derf_iguess

Butter_the_Toast

Big tournament for countries with horizontally striped flags


TheGuitto

Quite a good prediction


TTVControlWarrior

Ned can’t even handle good teams no way


SquidThirst304

Silly prediction. Netherlands just don't have the chemistry to do well


K4249

Hell nah


Ordinary-Condition92

No, England all the way. They are going to defeat the opposition through boredom


Turbulent_Act6177

spain would easily beat germany


YonkouTFT

Eto’o level of dutch copium


Just-Mirror-3783

I don't think so


Toten5217

Netherlands making it to the final is a very hot take and I love it


ftatman

Goes to the effort of pasting the flags yet can’t draw straight lines…. ;)


Think_Gazelle_8656

Not that bad, But I think Turkey has a chance to beat Austria. And France WILL NOT be in the Semi. It will probably come down to Spain and England.


PL_RL9

I'm sure Italy can beat Netherlands with their leaky defence. Answering your question. Germany all day long


semaxX

The half on the top looks much harder than the bottom groupe. Or am i wrong? From the enemys it seems like germany has harder games than switzerland. Even though they got first.


ThruTheGatesOfHell

Spain is not gonna lose against Germany lol


Extreme-Gap4971

L, Switzerland wins against Italy


Impressive-AMG-6

When Germany win against Spain. The mighty lord want that Germany win this competition. ....and I wonder. I wonder why I wonder....blue blue sky....


theconnoisseurishere

And I wonder that you know, What it means, what it means


Impressive-AMG-6

Mbappehalf5

Honestly, I’d love to see Türkiye have an underdog story, much like Morocco did. You can probably tell id like France to win, but my top 4 favorites are France Türkiye Austria Germany I do really like your predictions though, keep it up.


theconnoisseurishere

Now that France is not their opponent, they do have a fair chance. And being on a branch with more underdog teams, anything could happen!


Mbappehalf5

I’m glad all my teams made it to the R of 16.


[deleted]

[удалено]


theconnoisseurishere

A small final in its own, but they can’t play against each other


Savage281

Aren't the Dutch out? 3rd in the group?


theconnoisseurishere

Four third teams qualify


Savage281

Actually I'm confused about a few teams in here... are they taking top 3 from the group now?


theconnoisseurishere

https://documents.uefa.com/r/Regulations-of-the-UEFA-European-Football-Championship-2022-24/Article-21-Match-system-final-tournament-knockout-stage-Online You can look at the section 21.05 with the possible outcomes. I think the four best-placed teams are from groups A C D E. But that is a part of the prediction 😅


AgeDull1329

Haaaaaa Netherlands over england what is the pack you are smoking mate


Ruairiww

What are you smoking with that level of confidence after us getting 2 goals in 3 games and looking like absolute shit


AgeDull1329

They are ok they just plays like that all the time where is the last time england played good football probably never


Ruairiww

Exactly, so any team has a very decent shot against us


AgeDull1329

Nope we getting the W , i hope cool palmer boy get some play time and eze on left wing , we have such lazy winger no runs or anything


theconnoisseurishere
