As G7.hu writes, England is the most likely to win the European Championship. According to bookmakers’ odds, the English team has a nearly 20% chance of winning the final, compared to 1 in 6 for France and roughly 1 in 7 for Germany.

Could Hungary win the championship?

The Hungarian national team is given a 1% chance. Although this does not seem like much, according to G7.hu, it is an improvement on the 2021 European Championship, as it was only 0.19% then. This year, eight teams are behind us in the ranking.

In Hungary’s group (Group A), the bookmakers think that the Swiss, along with the German team, have a better chance of advancing than us. Meanwhile, the Hungarian team has a better chance than the Scottish team.
