England will reach the semi-finals, as France go on to Euro 2016 glory – that is what thousands of fans playing bettingexpert.com’s Euro Predictor have forecast.
More than 12,000 football enthusiasts have submitted their tournament predictions, with 33% of participants backing Les Bleus to be victorious on their home soil.
Germany are a close second, grabbing a 28.9% share, with Spain the third most-fancied team to win this summer’s continental showcase.
Interestingly, a huge 53% of voters believe Spain will go all the way to the final in France, but only 13.9% think they have what it takes to lift the trophy, despite winning the two previous tournaments.
“I had fancied Spain to lift the trophy, but who can argue with 12,000 fans? France are rightly being backed, and Germany are up there too, while England have an outside chance according to bettingexpert’s Euro Predictor players,” stated England legend and bettingexpert.com ambassador Chris Waddle
“It’s certainly going to be a cracker of a tournament. We’ll have to wait and see whether it’s the Euro Predictors, or me, who called it correctly!”
