Haven’t said much on the Euro prediction competition, but with the Round of 16 underway and the Netherlands out it might be interesting to see what had been submitted via the entries in the competition.
For Semi-Finalists we have the following
###### Semi Finalist
France named as Euro Semi-Finalist 39 times
Portugal named as Euro Semi-Finalist 21 times
Italy named as Euro Semi-Finalist 20 times
Belgium named as Euro Semi-Finalist 20 times
Germany named as Euro Semi-Finalist 18 times
England named as Euro Semi-Finalist 18 times
Spain named as Euro Semi-Finalist 9 times
Netherlands named as Euro Semi-Finalist 8 times
Denmark named as Euro Semi-Finalist 2 times
Switzerland named as Euro Semi-Finalist 1 times
So some people are going to miss out on the Netherlands, and with Belgium playing Portugal and England playing Germany there’s going to be a good few to miss out on those points too.
###### Winners
France named as Euro winners 22 times
Germany named as Euro winners 6 times
Italy named as Euro winners 4 times
Portugal named as Euro winners 3 times
England named as Euro winners 2 times
Spain named as Euro winners 1 times
Belgium named as Euro winners 1 times
According to our prediction competition France are the clear favourites, with Germany far behind.
###### Number of Goals
The most interesting item was the number of goals, it’s been a goal fest so far and the prediction league in general would have predicted
Number of Goals (mean) at Euro 2020 = 117
So far there’s 103 goals and with another 11 matches still to play it’s going to be much higher than the 117 mark.
Best of luck to all players in with a chance of the win.
