The top two teams in the group will most likely be Croatia and Türkiye. Croatia is a team that can win all their matches in the group stage. I don't think Armenia or any other team has a chance against them. We saw the beautiful football they played in the semi-finals and finals of the nations league. Armenia may surprise, but I don't think they can do it against the Croats.

England are very dominant in their group now. They even defeated Italy away as well. I think we can already assume they will finish the group as the leader. This win over North Macedonia by 7-0 isn't surprising at all. There is a huge quality gap and England just showed it in action. Saka's hat-trick was really lovely to watch and Kane also played solid as always. The qualifiers stage is easy for them maybe but they need to keep this up in the main tournament as well. Because they have no titles achieved in a Euro tournament in their history.

In fact this team have such a capacity to win this tournament. They have a squad full of very skilled players. It is all about management as a result. Southgate has been managing them since 2016 but there is still no achievement. If he fails again I think they should start over with a new coach.

I expected Turkey to beat Wales. Especially after Wales lost to Armenia the other day. I'm pretty surprised with another win for Armenia. I considered them to be one of the weakest teams in the group D along with Latvia. However after two recent wins they are signing at the second place with one game played more than Croatia. Their real test will be the game against Croatia in September.

Yes Wales played extremely defensively but they are also going through a major change for their team. Gareth Bale is now gone who used to be their top scorer and most of the players with the highest market value are actually defensive players as well. I think in case of Wales the 2016 EURO times when they reached the semi final will now be over for quite some time. It is hard to believe that they can pass the group stage an then even win two rounds to reach the semis in any tournament. Their Nations League results in League A were also very bad with 5 losses and 1 draw an they won't qualify most likely for the EURO 2024 either.

Anyone who plays a little football knows how hard it is to sprint in the last minutes and run all morning. Kazakh football player scored a magnificent goal. If Messi was in bringing top goals to the football world, this is a goal that could be on the best goals list. Meanwhile, Kazakhstan is not a team to be underestimated. In recent years, they have started to produce very good players.

Turkey defeated Wales 2-0 and took the lead for the time being with a match surplus.Although Turkey played a dominant and dominant game from the first half, they could not find a goal in the first half.Towards the end of the first half, with Wales down to 10 men, Turkey increased the pressure in the second half and started to drag Wales into mistakes.Although Çalhanoğlu missed a penalty in the 64th minute, Turkey won the match with 2 beautiful goals.Especially the goal scored by Arda güler was magnificent.

The match here is very good to watch, the two teams counterattacked each other, although basically Northern Ireland is the favourite, but Kazakhstan was able to break the stigma that they were just a weak team.

And about Abat Aimbetov's goal, I don't think anyone would disagree that his goal was the best goal of the week, it's like I saw messi in his prime, dribbling from 3/4 of the pitch alone and then scoring for Kazakhstan, especially the goal happened at the last minute.

Northern Ireland were favorites before the match, but you couldn't see it in the game, it was a good equal game, but it didn't really surprise me. In group H, I'm more surprised to see Denmark in third place after four rounds, I was sure that they would be the undisputed leaders in this group, but it's not over yet, I hope they can fix this and climb higher.

I don't like big multibets, but today I'm thinking of trying to take the wins of these teams: Belgium, Portugal, Poland and Scotland, the total odds is 3.3, not very big, but it seems to me, that everything should work.

I don't know lately this tournament has lost a lot of hype and fun in my eyes
I don't see generational "spare parts", it's so boring

the World Cup was a lot of fun for example, I loved Japan very much and its feat

Denmark have problems in the group, although they really don't have very strong opponents... But Denmark is not a top team like Spain, Croatia or Portugal either... I think they have about the same chances along with Finland or Slovenia... The only ones who could make a surprise were Kazakhstan... I did not expect them to play so well...

Well.. you can't make a judgement based on 1-2 matches, right? IMO, at this point France is the strongest team in UEFA and no one even comes close. They have so much depth in their player pool that they can comfortably play against quality opponents even if 4-5 of their regular players are not available. This was proven during the FIFA World Cup as well. Kylian Mbappé and the younger players took the responsibility as senior players such as Paul Pogba were unavailable. And they have a steady stream of younger players coming in to the national squad, to replace the seniors. Apart from France and England, none of the UEFA teams have this luxury.

Estonia vs Belgium

Belgium fell behind in the struggle with Austria but in the second half, they finished the match with a more selfless football and Lukaku's goal. It was an unfortunate match for Belgium. Belgium has a quality problem especially in defense, compared to previous years. It may be difficult for them in the group that includes Austria and Sweden but from my point of view, they are the favorites of the group and their victory against Sweden was good for them. Estonia is the weak link of the group and i don't think they can resist much against Belgium. Estonia will want to take advantage of Belgium's defensive weaknesses but i expect a victory for Belgium in the fight.

Austria vs Sweden

It was an important point for them that Austria drew with their football against Belgium and they drew attention with their defensive energy. Both the goals they scored and the fact that their opponent could not score more were lucky for Austria, but as a team that can make simple mistakes and concede goals in unexpected moments, it is very important for them to get the score they want at the end of the match against Belgium. Sweden kept key names on the sidelines in their friendly match against New Zealand. Sweden turned into a goal machine against Azerbaijan after losing to Belgium with a different score in the group. With the overcoming of the injury crisis, they can put forward a more balanced game and be effective especially in attack with Elanga, Isak and Gyökeres, one of the form names of the last period. I am open to goals but i expect a tough fight at the same time. I am eagerly awaiting the results of group F.

I respect your opinion but disagree with you on including France as one of the strongest, England yes, they are just brilliant in performance, making their opponent feel unsafe, taking all chances created and scoring more goals like they (England) don't have time to play around with the kind of world class players they have (if I should say it that way) .
Coming to the France national team, is just disappointing for them not to live up to expectation, former WORLD CHAMPIONS , they can't even get a second goal even when they're playing against a carded team (Greece). Let's check their ranking, France 2nd position and Greece 52nd position but the France national team couldn't best Greece with one man down, is just disappointing to me. And I feel the unity is not there on that France side, something is wrong somewhere.


England is a promising team, since they lost to Italy in that finals their mentality changed for good, is like they are a moving train without breaks. They (ENGLAND) have a target in their mind and their performance speaks for them. If they don't top their group it will be a waste of effort from the start so they don't have any excuse not topping that group. With Germany, Belgium, Netherland and Denmark like you listed, those are teams that need quick recovery at the moment, they're not playing like they use to, I wouldn't say much about the Denmark side because they too haven't found themselves in a long while compared to the others, or should I say they're better than the other teams 🤔? Time will tell.
Portuguese national team has already past the Ronaldo era, and is paying off for them with the young talents coming in, I don't think the man CR7 would be missed at all.

The Kazakhstan-Northern Ireland match was also very interesting. While everyone saw Northern Ireland as the favourite, Kazakhstan defended very well and brought the game until the last minutes without conceding a goal. Aymbetov's goal in the last minutes was great. In my opinion, it was a candidate to be the goal of the week. Against Wales, on the other hand, we were lucky because they got an early red card in the game and had to complete 10. We managed to beat 10-man Wales and gained a significant advantage in the group.

We can confidently say that England and France are the strongest teams in UEFA confederation right now. Unfortunately during Qatar 2022, these teams faced off each other during playoffs and as a result England got kicked out. Teams like Spain and Italy are still in rebuilding phase and Portugal is looking quite deflated without Ronaldo. Other teams like Germany, Belgium, Netherlands and Danmark are declining since new talent is not getting infused. So it will not be a surprise if England tops their group in Euro qualifiers.

Where is Mudryk? it seems like the guy already know England will obviously beat them and he scared to lose

England is always been a solid club, there's always a regeneration even though they mostly play very good only during the group stage, when they enter quarter final match, they performance are somewhat different.

Morocco is the black horse during the last world cup, now Turkish become a black horse in the UEFA Euro.

I never expected that the match between North Macedonia and England would end 7-0. North Macedonia was in shambles. This match must be embarrassing for them. They made a lot of mistakes in defense and they have to face this result. I also want to talk about the Türkiye match. 2 goals were canceled by VAR and Hakan Calhanoğlu missed a penalty. We were very patient to find the goal, but we were relieved when we scored the goals. We got a big advantage to get out of the group. After these matches, our opponent seems to be Armenia after Croatia.

England had a goal feast against North Macedonia with a landslide score of 7-0 and this result made England even stronger at the top of Group C with 12 points. Statistically, North Macedonia was badly beaten and they couldn't even record 1 shot on target against England and on the other hand, England succeeded in attacking the North Macedonia defense with so many goals scored.

Kane recorded a brace and Bukayo Saka scored a hat trick. Of course this is a good result for the three lions squad in the qualifying round for Euro 2024. I think England will win the group and their next opponent in September will be Ukraine, which is currently just below England. I think even though it's a bit difficult against Ukraine but I'm pretty sure that England will beat them.

North Macedonia is only weak team in group C and they probably can able to win against weaker teams but when they facing strong team North Macedonia always be lose and that's why before the match begin some of bookmakers provide low odds for England approximately @1.08 because they know it's impossible for North Macedonia to beat England and this result is really boosted England squad mentally because they can earn 12 points from 4 matches besides that this match also very special because Bukayo Saka has just made his first hattrick in his football career

France vs Greece seems very interesting because surprisingly Greece can able to performing well and they can guard France front lines such as Mbappe or Griezmann but indeed one mistakes from Greece player make France can able to scored from penalty kick and apparently this is the only goal during this match but i didn't satisfied to see France performance because i expect they can win with 2 goals margin or more

I had a lot of expectations from North Macedonia, but it looks as if they are not the same team after the retirement of Goran Pandev. In the last 3-4 years, they managed to win a few matches against much stronger opponents. But Pandev's absence has left a big vacuum. BTW, has anyone noticed what is going on in Group A? Scotland is on top, followed by Georgia. Spain is at the 3rd spot after their defeat to Scotland a few months back. Scotland has now 9 points from 3 matches. That will go up to 12 from 4, if they can defeat Georgia today (match scheduled to be played at Hampden Park, Glasgow).
