Luckily Fox Sports have all the live coverage over here so I'll be able to watch it all.

I wouldn't go too far past Sweden at 28-1, if a top team's off form sweden will beat them. If a top team is playing well they'll simply be outclassed.

I wouldn't touch Sweden. Don't have enough class to win it.

The Danes lack the class, but they have a good unit, capable of some big results. If they can string it together like they did '92 who knows. But they lack a Schmeichel and a set Laudrups. Thats the only issue.

So only the 3 great players they lack - not many then (!)

In other words have no class at all.

Rank outsiders for me.

Ok it is a European Football/soccer tournament held every four years with 16 of Europe's best countries compete in a tournament and the winner of it is crowned European Champions.

Stuff like 'Euro 2000' and 'Euro 2004' is the name of the European Championships with the name of the year it is in.

Hope this helps.

Well at least they have half a chance now with Henrik Larsson coming out of international retirement. And this is the same Sweden that knocked off England 1-0.
