I think Germany and Italy have the best chance. They are playing the best football in Europe right now.

I said Italy because of patriotism, but historically Italy always did well when was completely out of consideration and failed when among the favorites...
Hopefully they will reverse the trend...

I think the Germans will win it because they have the easiest road to the finals (and the fact I live with Germans (and a Dutchman) atm). If not the Germans you can not discount the French, the Italians or the Dutch, Portuguese or the Spanish. Should be an interesting tournament (and perhaps a close one - particularly the group of death).

I honestly do not think the Italians will get out of the group stage.

They are a great team, but overall they have never been very successful in International Tournaments (despite there 4 World Cup wins). They usually put up a great fight and go far in the tournaments however. This time though, they are in the group of death and I actually think that France and the Netherlands will take 1st and 2nd place in the group.

Here is a bit of history on the European Cup:

1960
Winner - Soviet Union
2nd Place - France

1964
Winner - Spain
2nd Place - Soviet Union

1968
Winner - Italy
2nd Place - Hungary

1972
Winner - Germany
2nd Place - Soviet Union

1976
Winner - Czechoslovakia
2nd Place - Germany

1980
Winner - Germany
2nd Place - Belgium

1984
Winner - France
2nd Place - Spain

1988
Winner - Netherlands
2nd Place - Soviet Union

1992
Winner - Denmark
2nd Place - Germany

1996
Winner - Germany
2nd Place - Czech Republic

2000
Winner - France
2nd Place - Italy

2004
Winner - Greece
2nd Place - Portugal
