England are set to go off as favourites for Euro 2024 even though they have never won the tournament before.

The Three Lions suffered penalty shootout heartache against Italy four years ago, but should be right in the mix as Europe’s elite assemble in Germany to discover who is the continent’s top dog.

England to gain nine Group C points @ 5/2

Even by the usual standards, there seems a huge expectation that England can do well at Euro 2024 and there should be little in the group stage that quells the hype as they take on Serbia, Denmark and Slovenia.

The Three Lions took seven points from their three pool matches last time - they were held to a goalless draw by Scotland - and victory over Serbia in their opener would stand them in good stead.

Denmark have regressed since Gareth Southgate’s side beat them in the semi-finals three years ago and section underdogs Slovakia may not put up much resistance in their final match, so a maximum return of nine points is perfectly achievable at 5/2 with LiveScore Bet.

England to lose in the semi-finals @ 10/3

Such a haul would put England in a great position to do well, as topping the group would ensure they play a third-placed finisher in the last 16, and they would probably be favourites to see off either the runner-up from Group A or Group B in the last eight.

However, the market suggests they would face France in the semi-finals and, after just coming up short against Les Bleus at the World Cup, it could be a hurdle that is too high to clear, so it would not be a surprise if England, yet again, suffered another episode of last-four heartache at 10/3. 

Conor Gallagher most cards for the team @ 16/1

It still seems to be up in the air whether Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold or Chelsea’s Conor Gallagher will be selected alongside Declan Rice in the heart of the England midfield, but it is worth taking a chance on Gallagher to pick up the most England cards in the tournament. 

Playing the Reds right-back in midfield may not work even if Alexander-Arnold gets the nod for the clash against Serbia in Gelsenkirchen, and Gallgher would be primed as an ideal replacement.

He could still start the tournament himself and it is worth noting that he committed 83 fouls in the Premier League last season, picking up nine yellow cards, so an offer of 16/1 that he is Southgate’s most-carded player looks worthy of an interest.
