Euro 2020 starts on Friday and is shaping up to be quite an open tournament, with no clear favourite IMO.
So rather than the usual "pick the winner" poll. I thought how about predicting the last four semi-finalists. Maybe Scotland will be one of them.
To do so, I've created this poll as multi choice, but if you could limit your choices to four that will be great. If you can also share your four predictions than we can see who comes closest to getting all four correct picks. No prize for the winner, just the award of being considered more knowledgeable than the rest (or luckier).

France - world champions, potential QF opponents for Scotland
Belguim - class throughout that squad, tough call as they might need to take on the Italians but I think they will edge it
England - young and athletic with dangerous goal scorers, survive the 18th of June and who knows?
Denmark - Professional, strong team, expect them to finish second to Belguim in their group but to edge Holland/Switzerland

With players like Cancelo, Dias, Guerro, Danilo, Neves, Renato Sanches, Bernaro Silva, Felix, Jota, Ronaldo I could see them coming ahead of Germany in their group.
Germany will obviously be strong but fullback position is a real problem for them just now. With the strong wingers portugal have I think they'll beat Germany.

Done one of those score predictor things for work, which auto fills out all the pathways for the knock out round, and got the following semi finalists:
Belgium, Portugal, France, Denmark.
Knocking out Turkey, Scotland, Spain, Netherlands respectively in the round of 16.

I think Portugal are the value bet for the Euros personally. I have it between them, France and Belgium in terms of a bet. Probably favour Belgium overall but like Portugal at the prices.

I like Fernández at Man Utd as well.
Seems a great professional as well as a great player.

So going by the poll so far, it's looking like Belgium and France are most peoples favourites for the semi final, followed by England and Germany, with Italy just behind them.
Surprised that there are more votes for Scotland than Portugal, at present.

I tried to do a predictor last night and came out with a final 4 of Portugal, England, Belgium and Denmark. Obviously once you hit QFs it's so tough to predict.
Can't wait for the tournament to get started now!

I've not checked the pathways so don't know if that really is likely.

Add Italy and Spain to your list and you will probably have the last 4.
I need to then pick 4 from 6 as you have done.
Given Germany and France are in the same group one of them will meet another big hitter earlier than the rest which will naturally reduce the big hitters by 1.

It is exciting to at least be part of the tournament for a change.

The way the draw works out a lot of the favourites could knock each other out in the R16 and quarters.
My semifinals are
France v Italy
Portugal v TurkeyLast edited by hibsbollah; 08-06-2021 at 01:05 PM.

Would Italy not likely have to beat Belgium to reach this stage? I'm all for it, I want Italy to win it.

That would be wildest dreams territory but has no chance of happening. I'll stick with the Italian part of my genes for this one.
