This is How The Round of 16 of EURO 2024 Will be Played
After a fascinating Group Stage in EURO 2024, the Round of 16 matchups have been defined, and here are the pairings:
Spain vs Georgia
Spain enters as one of the favorites to win EURO after their outstanding performance in the Group Stage. Georgia, on the other hand, is one of the surprise teams and boasts the tournament's top scorer. Will there be an upset or will logic prevail once again?
Germany vs Denmark
Germany is the top candidate to win EURO, being the host nation and in good form, leading Group A with seven points, eight goals scored, and only two conceded. However, their recent performance against Switzerland raises doubts as they face Denmark, a team that, despite not winning any matches in the Group Stage, is always competitive in crucial moments.
Portugal vs Slovenia
Portugal's Group Stage was filled with ups and downs. They managed to win in difficult moments but suffered a surprising defeat against Georgia, leaving them with uncertainties. They will face Slovenia, who barely made it through as the third-place team in their group, a challenge that seems manageable, but football is full of surprises.
France vs Belgium
The most attractive matchup of EURO is undoubtedly this one, as it features two constant protagonists in European international football: Mbappé vs De Bruyne. However, both teams arrive with similar paths, as they didn't quite live up to expectations given their squad quality. Will they manage to turn things around and claim victory?
Austria vs Turkey
Two teams expected to be dark horses in EURO 2024, one dubbed so by Arsene Wenger (Austria) and the other due to the quality they possess, led by the jewel of Fenerbahce and Real Madrid, Arda Güler. Who will come out on top?
England vs Slovakia
England has disappointed with performances that have fallen short, considering the quality and depth of their squad under Gareth Southgate. Can they rise from their struggles to finally live up to their status as favorites? Or will they crash against Slovakia?
Romania vs Netherlands
The biggest surprise of EURO will face the Netherlands in a highly anticipated match. The Netherlands barely made it to this stage after disappointing in their group, while Romania arrives with all eyes on them.
Switzerland vs Italy
One of the most evenly matched matchups in the EURO 2024 Round of 16, as both teams were close to defeating the top favorites in the tournament. As they advance as group runners-up, they set up a highly promising encounter.
