Spain have secured top spot in Group B after their well-earned victory against Italy, leaving the Azzurri needing a result against Croatia in the final group game. Get the latest Euro 2024 Group B Winner, To Qualify and Forecast markets right here.

Euro 2024 Group B Winner Odds

Group B features three countries that began the tournament in the top 10 of the outright Euro 2024 winner odds.

After Spain's comprehensive 3-0 victory over Croatia bookmakers had cut their outright odds to 15/2 to win the tournament, but la Roja are now as short to 11/2 in some areas after their 1-0 win over Italy on Matchday Two.

The Azzurri are now out to 20/1 to win the tournament while Croatia are as long as 100/1 after picking up just one point from their first two games and Albania are still priced at around 500/1, with only Georgia's odds being longer.

Under the tutorship of manager Luis de la Fuente, Spain won seven of their eight matches in qualifying top of Group A for Euro 2024. They've won the tournament twice in the last four editions and reached the semi-finals last time out, where they lost on penalties to eventual winners Italy.

Perhaps surprisingly, Spain have not won a European Championship group since Euro 2012 when they finished ahead of Italy and Croatia to win Group C, before lifting the trophy.

Italy finished 2nd behind Spain in that group back in Euro 2012, but went on to win both their groups at Euro 2016 and Euro 2020. They would then defeat England in the Final but surprisingly failed to qualify for the 2022 World Cup.

Meanwhile, Croatia finished 2nd behind England in Group D last time out, then lost to Spain in the last-16. They did previously top a group featuring Spain at Euro 2016, while they qualified for Euro 2024 as runners-up behind Turkey. With plenty of experience and nous, it wouldn't come as a surprise if they upset Italy and Spain to finish top of the pile.

Albania have only ever competed at one European Championship, dating back eight years then they finished third in Group A behind France and Switzerland. The Red and Blacks may be the outsiders in their Euro 2024 group but they are certainly not to be overlooked after winning qualifying Group E ahead of the Czech Republic and Poland.

Euro 2024 Group B To Qualify Odds

Group winners and runners-up will automatically advance to the round-of-16, while the best four third-placed teams in the six groups will also cement their place in the next round, meaning as many as three countries could qualify from Group B.

After two games, there are no longer any group winner or 'to qualify' odds available for Group B despite there still being a possibility of any one, or perhaps even two of Italy, Croatia and Albania progressing to the knock-out stages if they can win their final group game.

Euro 2024 Winning Group Odds

Will one of Spain, Italy, Croatia, or even Albania go on to win Euro 2024? Group B is still available at odds of 4/1 to produce the overall winner of this summer's tournament, with Spain (2008 & 2012) and Italy (2020) victorious in three of the last four European Championships between them.

Bookmakers favour Group D - which features France and the Netherlands - at 11/4 in this market, while Germany's Group A is next in the running at 7/2.
