CCTV5 Program List January 3, 2024 - The 2024 European Cup will be held in 11 cities in Germany from June 14 to July 14. A total of 24 teams will participate, divided into six groups. What are the hot winners, dark horses and fish bellies in this European Cup? Let's take a look at each group.
Group A: Spain, Scotland, Norway, Georgia, Cyprus. The top seed of this group is Spain. They are the only team to win the European Cup for two consecutive times in the history, and also the champion of the 2010 World Cup. Spain has a group of players with outstanding skills, such as Morata, Ascencio, Rodri, Torres, etc. Their ability to control the ball and pass and cut is still the best in Europe. Spain's winning rate is 1-8, which is the third most popular in this European Cup. Scotland is the second seed of Group A. They are the old faces of the European Cup, but they have never played in the group matches. The strength of Scotland is not strong, but there are some players in the Premier League, such as Robertson, McKinley, Dix, and so on. Their indomitable style cannot be underestimated. Scotland's winning rate is 1-150, which is the 18th most popular in this European Cup. Norway is the third seed of Group A. They are new faces of the European Cup. This is their first time to participate in the European Cup. The biggest highlight of Norway is Harland, a young striker who is amazing in Dortmund and one of the hottest strikers in Europe. Norway also has some other strong players, such as Odegard, Solskjaer, Berger, etc. Their offensive ability cannot be ignored. Norway's winning rate is 1 to 100, which is the 16th most popular in this European Cup. Georgia and Cyprus are the last two seeds of Group A. They are both new players in the European Cup and have little experience and fame. Georgia and Cyprus both have a winning ratio of 1 to 1000, which is one of the biggest fish bellies in this European Cup.
Group B: Netherlands, France, Ireland, Greece, Gibraltar. The number one seed of this group is the Netherlands. They are the traditional strong team of the European Cup. They won the championship in 1988 and also reached the World Cup finals three times. The Netherlands has some world-class players, such as Van Dyck, De Jong, Depe, Vinaldom, etc. Their balance of attack and defense and overall cooperation are excellent. The Netherlands has a winning ratio of 1 to 13, which is the fourth favorite of this European Cup. France is the second seed of Group B. They are the defending champions of the World Cup and the two champions of the European Cup. France has the strongest strikers in Europe, such as Mbape, Grezman, Benzema, etc. Their speed and technology are amazing. The French midfielders and defenders are also first-rate, such as Cantor, Bogba, Varane, Kim Pompey, and so on. Their defense and control abilities are very strong. The winning rate of France is 1-5, which is the most popular in this European Cup. Ireland is the third seed in Group B. They are regular visitors to the European Cup, but have never played in the group matches. Ireland's strength is average, but there are some players in the Premier League, such as McGold, McCarthy, and McLean. Their style is indomitable and they are not afraid of strong enemies. Ireland's winning rate is 1 to 250, which is the 21st most popular in this European Cup. Greece and Gibraltar are the last two seeds of Group B. They are both rookies in the European Cup and have little experience and fame. Greece once created a miracle and won the European Cup in 2004, but that was 20 years ago. Now Greece has no strength and influence. Gibraltar is one of the smallest countries in Europe, and their football level is also one of the lowest in Europe. Their participation is just for learning and experience. Both Greece and Gibraltar have a winning ratio of 1 to 1000, which is one of the biggest fish bellies in this European Cup.

Italy has a team with rich experience, such as Chiellini, Bonucci, Insina, Imobile, etc., whose defensive and organizational abilities are very strong. Italy's winning rate is 1 to 10, which is the fifth favorite of this European Cup. England is the second seed of Group C. They were the runners up of the European Cup and the champion of the 1966 World Cup. England has a group of young and promising players, such as Kane, Sterling, Sancho, Feden, etc., whose speed and creativity are very high. England's winning rate is 1-6, which is the second most popular in this European Cup. Ukraine is the third seed of Group C, and they are new faces of the European Cup.
