Candidates Germany and Spain both won their opening matches with big scores, will England follow suit and enter the game with the same spirit?
In fact, England are too strong compared to the other three opponents in the same group, Serbia, Denmark and Slovenia. They only need to win for sure, not the exciting results that the press expects.
England not worried about facing Serbia
Some commentators believe that coach Gareth Southgate will "hide" his key players to save his strength for the knockout round. He will not rush forward to score goals when he needs to protect his players' legs and avoid injuries when going deep into the tournament.
Serbia determined to score points against championship candidate
That said, England can beat Serbia with a suitable score, as long as their opponents don't hurt themselves like Scotland in Group A. The odds of the match are quite different when England concedes 1 goal, losing money (only wins 82), but it is risky to choose the underdog.

Group C: Slovenia - Denmark
Slovenia and Denmark know each other very well after two encounters in the Euro 2024 qualifiers last year, so the underdog team like Slovenia can measure their strength to find a draw in the opening match.
Denmark is rated higher than Slovenia
Looking at the head-to-head results between the two teams, it can be seen that Slovenia has gradually improved over time. Previously, they could lose by 3 or 4 goals to Denmark, but in the last two meetings, Slovenia has drawn at home and only lost narrowly away to Denmark.
Handicap ratio for Slovenia - Denmark match
So how will the match look on neutral ground? Most commentators are tipping Denmark to win, but in their return to the Euros since 2000, Slovenia will be looking to make a mark and perhaps nothing could be better than surprising the "old guard" Denmark.
The market gave Denmark a handicap of half a point over Slovenia, and most players chose the upper hand. That's why we'll follow the lower hand.
Head to head:
18-11-2003: Denmark - Slovenia 2-1
20-06-2023: Slovenia – Denmark 1-1
07-02-2008: Slovenia – Denmark 1-2
26-04-2001: Denmark – Slovenia 3-0
01-05-1997: Denmark – Slovenia 4-0
Group D: Poland - Netherlands
Grouped with France and Austria, Poland and the Netherlands will have to fight to secure a ticket to the knockout round. In theory, the Netherlands are better in terms of strength and form, but Poland's decline has certainly widened the gap between them.
The Netherlands are strong contenders for the championship.
Not only has Poland's form "dropped", but the injury crisis has also caused the "White Eagles" to lose key strikers like Milik or Lewandowski in the opening match. Experts admit that without Lewy, Poland will no longer be themselves, so it is hard to believe that they can hold off a strong opponent like the Netherlands.
Handicap ratio for Poland - Netherlands match
The match odds show a big gap when the Netherlands concedes 1 goal to Poland. Anyway, choosing the upper hand is reasonable.
Head to Head
23-09-2022: Poland – Netherlands 0-2
12-06-2022: Netherlands – Poland 2-2
19-11-2020: Poland – Netherlands 1-2
05-09-2020: Netherlands – Poland 1-0
02-06-2016: Poland – Netherlands 1-2
