As far as I am concerned this competition is going to be pretty open.

Let me try and give my predictions for each group

Group A

Portugal and the Czech Republic to go through. However Turkey are a dark horse.

The Czech may miss Pavel Nedved


Group B

Croatia and Germany to qualify


Group C

BLATANT GROUP OF DEATH.


I can't call this one.

France have a good squad, but aren't exactly playing good football.

Holland have a reputation for messing up. Clarence Seedorf apparently to Van Basten that he does not want to be picked for the squad, plus I am aware that Van Basten does not see eye to eye with Van Nistelrooy.

Italy are very good, however I have not seen them play in a long time (same with Romania)

This one is really hard to call.



Group D


Even this group is quite close. However I expect Spain and Sweden to qualify. Then again you cannot ever rule out the eastern europeans, and lets not forget about what Greece did a few years ago.

Spain will definatly qualify, however I do not expect them to win it
