This year’s tournament promises to be one for the history books as the tournament celebrates its 60th anniversary. Fans will also be able to attend the matches at 50% occupancy of the stadiums.
The opening match will be played in Rome and will be played between Italy and Turkey on the 11th of June.
Italy is the favourite team going into the match with the odds at Betway soccer betting currently at 5-1 for Turkey to win. This year’s tournament will be played across 11 different cities in Europe with Wembley Stadium being the host for the semi finals as well as the final match.
24 teams have been divided into 6 groups for the group stage round of the competition meaning each team will play three matches in the group stage. The two teams with the most points in their respective group will progress to the last round of 16.
The competition will last a month with the final match scheduled to take place on the 11th of July at London’s Wembley Stadium. The CONMEBOL Copa América which is South America’s biggest football championship and the third most watched football tournament in the world is also scheduled to be played this June.
The tournament has made a dramatic change as original hosts Colombia and Argentina backed out of hosting the tournament in the last minute leaving Brazil to step in as the host nation for the competition. 10 teams have split into two groups for this Copa América.
The first match of South America’s biggest tournament will be played on Sunday the 13th of June at 23:00 and will be between Argentina and Chile. Brazil, Argentina and Chile are seen as the top contenders going into the tournament. Lionel Messi will be hoping that he can steer Argentina to win South America’s most coveted title which has evaded him during his playing time for the country. Brazil is the current title holder and will be hoping to make this the sixth time that the country takes home the silverware.
The longest running football tournament will also come to a close on the 11th of July the same day as the EURO 2020.
