Romania, 150 odds to win Euro 2024

The Romanian national football team managed to qualify for the European Championship, which will be held in Germany in 2024.

The Tricolors needed a draw in their clash with Israel, but Janis Hagi and Co came back with all 3 points from Felchut.

Therefore, the team trained by Edi Yordenescu will be present at the final tournament in Germany.

Bookmakers have already established Romania’s chances of winning the European Championship after successfully passing the “tricolor” qualification.

According to experts, England and France are the favorites of the competition (coefficient 5.25), and Romania has a coefficient of 150 to win the trophy.

Albania, Greece and Slovenia have the same share. Slovakia (200) and Finland (350) have higher chances to win the Euro.

Hosts Germany have the third chance to win the competition (8).

To stay in second place, Romania must not lose to Switzerland in their last match of the previous tournament to finish the group in first place. The match with the Swiss will take place on Tuesday, November 21, from 21:45 (LiveBLOG on HotNews.ro).

If this happens, there are two possible group options for the tricolors. We’re talking hellish, but also one that could be, at least at first glance, affordable.

So, in the category of infernal groups, we have the following option: FranceRomania, Netherlands and Switzerland.

At the opposite pole, with a bit of luck, we could find ourselves in a group that looks like this: AustriaRomania, Slovenia and Slovakia.

Know:

  • The draw for the Euro 2024 groups will take place on December 2 at 19:00 (Romanian time) at the “Elbphilharmonie” in Hamburg.
  • During the draw, the winners of the groups are taken into account first, and then those who take 2 places.
  • In previous groups with six teams in each (unlike in Romania), the points scored by the last team will not be taken into account, reports gsp.ro.
  • At this moment, the tricolors are in the second urn.
  • If they lose to Switzerland, Romania could end up in third or even fourth place, depending on other results from previous matches.
