#1 France

When discussing the favorites for the European Championship this year, it looks like we need to place France on an exclusive list. Les Bleus appear to be the strongest side heading into the tournament. They won the World Cup in fantastic fashion in 2018 and they'll be hoping to keep up their impressive run at the Euros.
They boast an attack made up of players like Kylian Mbappe, Antoine Griezmann and Karim Benzema. Behind them, a midfield trio of Ngolo Kante, Paul Pogba and Corentin Tolisso will be intimidating to opposition teams. That's not to mention world-class defenders like Raphael Varane, Presnel Kimpembe, Lucas Hernandez, Benjamin Pavard and so many more talents in every department.
Manager Didier Deschamps surely knows how to get the best out of this team. Their recent results include 3-0 victories against Bulgaria and Wales. With Les Bleus firing on all cylinders at the moment, it would be a gargatuan task for anyone to come close to them at the Euros this year.
