Germany started EURO 2008 slowly with a 2-0 win over Poland, 1-2 loss to Croatia, 1-0 win over Austria and a Quarter Final 3-2 win over Portugal. After their Group B stages Germany weren’t looking up to par. Now after they’ve beaten Portugal, in the quarter finals, the Germans are the favs. Germany face Turkey in the semi-finals. BetUS.com has Germany as +125 moneyline favs to win EURO 2008.

Spain put on an impressive show during their Group D stages. They romped Russia 4-1, beat Sweden 2-1, and Greece 2-1 to make the quarter finals. In the quarters they were playing Italy for a spot in the semis. Italy’s game against Spain was one of the dullest matches I have ever seen.  Spain’s offense dominated through their first three games, but hardly showed any sighs of brilliance when it counted. Spain takes on Russia in the semi-finals. Spain are listed at +550 to win.

Russia have been an unexpected nation to make it out of Group D. They were beaten by Spain 1-4, they beat Greece 1-0 and beat Sweden 2-0 to get out of Group play. Their biggest defeat was over the heavily favored Dutch side, they went on to win 3-1. Russia has three deadly strikers that can wrinkle the back of the onion bag from 30-40 yards out. They can get by the Spaniards if they play the same style they did against the Dutch. Russia is listed at +350 to win EURO 2008.

Turkey have become the Cinderella story of EURO 2008. They finished with a 0-2 loss to Portugal, 2-1 win over Switzerland and a 2-1 shocking win over the Czech Republic to advance into the quarter finals. They again shocked the world with a 1-1 penalty shootout win over Croatia in what had to be the best football match ever played at EURO. Turkey will have to do without nine players due to suspension or injury. Turkey is listed at +1250 to win.

The Bottom Line: Germany for sure will be in the final. The way Russia has been playing since their superstar returned has been brilliant, I believe they can get by Spain after they showed a lack luster performance against Italy.
