Golden boots and title chances - Euro 2024 in numbers

BERLIN : With eight teams left in the tournament the numbers around Euro 2024 are becoming clearer, with Spain, England and France all considered likely winners and a race for top scorer that is still very tight. 

The Opta Analyst prediction index gives Spain a 19.48 per cent chance of adding a fourth European championship title and a first since 2012, with England hot on their heels at 18.98 per cent despite very unconvincing performances. 

France, who have also failed to fire, are third with an 18.18 per cent chance of winning, followed by Germany, who face Spain in the quarter-finals on Friday and are listed as having a 17.15 per cent chance of success. 

Turkey, who pulled off a stunning 2-1 win in one of the games of the tournament against Austria on Tuesday, have a mere 3.49 per cent chance of winning the Henri Delaunay trophy, according to Opta's statistical model. 

With no striker sticking out from the pack and plenty of the world's best already home, the race for the golden boot as the tournament's top scorer is still very much up for grabs. 

Jamal Musiala of Germany and Netherlands forward Cody Gakpo have both netted three goals, as have Ivan Schranz of Slovakia and Georges Mikaudatze, but the latter pair's tournament is over. 

Schranz also had some of the best attacking statistics in the tournament, scoring his three goals from only five attempts spread over four games, according to UEFA's official records. 

BELLINGHAM OPPORTUNITY

With Spain up next for the Germans and a tricky tie against Turkey for the Dutch, there could be an opportunity for another player to steal their thunder, and England's Jude Bellingham could be a dark horse to be top scorer.
