Euros: Group D odds, tips, predictions, teams and fixtures

Group D of the Euros is shaping up to be one of the most competitive groups in Germany this summer, with France, the Netherlands, Poland and Austria set to do battle.

Les Bleus, winners in 1984 and 2000, lost in the 2016 final on home soil but managed to make amends for that defeat to Portugal by lifting the World Cup in 2018.

Didier Deschamps' side are 4/1 to go all the way in Germany and, with Kylian Mbappe spearheading the attack, it is hard to make a case for them not to enjoy a deep run in the tournament.

But there are dangers in the group, most notably the Netherlands, while Austria have shown strong form under Ralf Rangnick, and Poland are capable of beating anyone on their day.

Euro 2024 Group D betting tips and predictions

Group D Forecast - France 1st, Netherlands 2nd - 11/8

Hard to oppose France

France look set to enjoy a strong challenge for Euros glory this summer, and they should have more than enough to finish top of Group D, which forms the first part of this forecast.

Les Bleus topped qualifying Group B, winning seven and drawing one, and it's notable that they defeated the Netherlands both home and away during that campaign, 4-0 and 2-1. 

Paris Saint-Germain forward Mbappe has been in sparkling form this season, scoring 24 Ligue 1 goals to lead the Golden Boot chart, while the likes of Moussa Diaby, Randal Kolo Muani and Ousmane Dembele bring plenty more attacking threat.

Dutch can take second spot

The battle for the second spot looks to be a tight one between Poland, Austria and the Netherlands, but it is the latter that are capable of grabbing that position and ensuring this forecast prediction lands.

There looks to be a good mix of youth and experience in this Dutch squad, and there also looks to be a sturdier feel about them at the back, with four clean sheets kept in their last five matches.

Recent European Championship appearances haven't produced great results for the Netherlands, who have not gone past the quarter-finals since 2004, but there is optimism ahead of this summer's event.

With Austria likely to be without two key players in David Alaba and Philipp Lienhart and Poland scraping into the tournament after beating Wales on penalties in the play-off round final, the Flying Dutchmen can grab second in the group.

Euro 2024 Group D route to the final

The winner of Group D will move into the last-16 stage where they will face the Group F runners-up, which will be Turkey, Portugal, Czech Republic or Georgia. A quarter-final tie against Belgium looks the most likely, as the Red Devils are expected to win Group E and defeat the third-placed team in pool A, B, C or D in the round of 16.

England could await in the semi-final, though there is also the chance Spain, Italy, Croatia, Denmark and Germany amongst others could be the opponent in the last four.

The Group D runner-up will take on the Group E runner-up, setting up a clash against either Belgium, Ukraine, Romania or Slovakia, with the winner of that tie then potentially facing Portugal in the quarters. Hosts Germany, along with Spain, Italy and Croatia, could then be next in the semi-finals.

If the third-placed side in Group D is one of the highest-ranked in that position, the route to the final becomes much harder. A last-16 tie against the winner of Group B, E or C will be first up, meaning England, Belgium, Spain, Italy and Croatia are all potential opponents.
