Among the favorites for Euro 2024, the France team can find England, its opponent in the quarter-finals of the 2022 World Cup (and unfortunate finalist in 2021), depending on several scenarios.
Having fallen into Group D of Euro 2024 to challenge Austria, the Netherlands then a play-off which could be Poland or Wales, the French team has the disadvantage of having to face a second group in cases of first and second place. If they emerge victorious from their group, the Blues will challenge the second of group F, that of Portugal, Turkey and the Czech Republic, before a “theoretical quarter-final” against the winner of group E, which could be Belgium .

It is thus in the semi-finals that the vice-world champions could then find England, the 2nd European team in the Fifa Ranking behind France. At the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, in the quarter-finals, Didier Deschamps’ men obviously came out on top against the Three Lions who had produced an excellent collective performance. Harry Kane won’t send an equalizing penalty into the clouds every day. Above all, Declan Rice, Jude Bellingham, Phil Foden or Buyako Saka are even stronger.
In the event of second place in its group, France will then move to the upper part of the table, to challenge the second in group E, that of Belgium, Romania and Slovakia. Kylian Mbappé and his teammates can very well find the English. If the latter finish second after challenging Serbia, then Denmark and Slovenia, they will also be sent to this part of the table. There too for a possible clash in the half.
