Who Will Win Euro 2008? La Liga Says Italy

Spanish sports daily El Mundo has today branded Italy as the favourites to win Euro 2008 in its supplementary section dedicated to the competition.

El Mundo launched a survey among the 20 coaches of La Liga. Twelve indicated Italy as the likely winner of Euro 2008, either alone or jointly with one or two other favourites.

Spain only received the second most amount of votes, followed then by France and Germany.

The favourites with most bookmakers to win Euro 2008 are Germany, while Italy’s odds have generally lengthened following the injury to inspirational captain Fabio Cannavaro, who has been ruled out of the tournament.

The Azzurri play their first match of Group C on Monday against Holland in Berne. Also playing earlier that evening are Italy’s other group opponents France and Romania.
