Euro 08 Favourites

South America may have a domineering affect on the World Cup, but the European Football Championship represented the best chance many fringe nations have of covering themselves in Euro 08 glory. After a set of dogged displays in Euro 2004, Greece proved that if you apply yourself correctly, it is possible to stop the heavyweights prevailing. In European football championship history though, this has not always been the case.

Euro 08 Championship Hopefuls

Germany were the favourites to win at the Euro 08 final and it was easy to see why. They are by far one of the most successful Euro 08 teams since the tournaments creation in 1960 having won the trophy three times, while nearest rivals France, who last triumphed in 2000, have two UEFA European Football Championship titles to their name. Les Bleus disappointed though and it was Luis Aragones side Spain who took the Euro 08 trophy home.

Euro 08 Final Betting

As if an extra incentive was needed for teams bidding to reach the Euro 08 final, a new trophy was awarded after the original by Henri Delaunay underwent a revamp. Whoever you decided to lump on in terms of Euro 08 betting, the wealth of markets available always kept punting options open and a free flowing tournament full of goals provided plenty of chances to win big.
