England’s route to the Euro 2024 final in Germany: Three Lions potential path to glory

Who could stand in the Three Lions' way?

Southgate, Rice and Kane

England fans headed into this summer’s Euros with the usual mix of wild optimism, stomach-churning nerves and cautious hope that this might just be the year it all changes.

Gareth Southgate has successfully managed to gain redemption for his penalty miss at Euro ’96, with the former defender leading England to three successive major tournament knockout stages since 2018.

A World Cup semi-final spot in 2018 set the tone for Euro 2020, but penalties once again crept up in Southgate’s rear view mirror, as Italy showed nerves of absolute steel to win the final at Wembley.

Despite slipping to a quarter-final exit at the 2022 World Cup, England and France are tightly bound as favourites for glory in Germany this summer, with the hosts as dark horses.

As expectation swirls, so do the permutations, and to save you the bother of a sticking a wall chart up in the kitchen, Paddy Power has got you covered with England’s potential route map to the final.

There are three routes out of Group C for England at Euro 2024, as group winners, runners up or potentially as one of the best third placed sides. So, with Paddy at the wheel, lets look at who is on the table in the knockouts for Southgate.

Who can England’s face in the Euro 2024 last 16?

Despite some unconvincing performances, England finished top of Group C and will face one of the best third-place sides from either Group D, E or F. After a dramatic round of fixtures on the final day of the group stage, it emerged that the Three Lions will face Slovakia at the Arena AufSchalke in Gelsenkirchen on Sunday, June 30.

Martin Dubravka and Jordan Pickford

Who can England’s face in the Euro 2024 quarter finals?

If England progress they will take on the winners of a last-16 tie between the runners up in Group A and B. Switzerland finished behind Germany in Group A and Italy were the best of the rest behind Spain in Group B.

This is where it gets interesting…..

As group winners, England will likely face the winners of either Group E or D in the semis. That would probably bring the likes of the Netherlands or Austria into the equation.

Who can England’s face in the Euro 2024 final?

The big one….who will England face if they reach the final?

Well, a final showdown with Germany looks to be on the cards. Portugal, Spain or France could be an option should they stay the course, but England v Germany could bring the country to a standstill.
