Euro 2025 power rankings: The bookies’ odds for the trophy winners
All odds from Oddschecker.
1. Spain (11/13)
The World Cup champions are favourites to lift the European Championships title this year and it is clear to see why.
Not only do they have the likes of Aitana Bonmati, who is number one on FourFourTwo's list of current best players, and Alexia Putellas in their ranks but they have been the dominant force across the globe since they were knocked out by England in the quarter-finals in the last Euros tournament.
They won the World Cup in 2023, won the 2024 Nations League and came fourth at the Olympics. If they win this summer they will make history as a Spanish women's team have never won a Euros before.
2. England (17/4)
Defending champions England are still among the favourites to lift the trophy again this year. If they do, they will become the first senior England team to defend a major tournament trophy, but it is going to be a difficult feat.
The Lionesses have not been a consistent force over the past few years, with opponents finding holes in their defence and their goal-scoring feats not reaching the heights of what they were in 2021 and 2022.
But 4-0 and 6-1 wins against the Netherlands and Wales in the group stage have given fans hope. Can they do it again? Sarina Wiegman will certainly be doing everything in her power to make it happen.
3. France (15/2)
France does boast a lot of great players like Marie-Antoinette Katoto, Selma Bacha and Delphine Cascarino and they have always had a talented group of players. However, they are famous for not being clinical in knockout matches in major tournaments.
The 2022 edition of the Euros was the first time they had ever reached the semi-final, losing to Germany in the last four game. Before that, France had lost three consecutive Euro's quarter-finals. They have also not progressed further than the quarter-final stage at a World Cup.
However, now they have that Euros semi-final experience under their belts, they may just push on for the trophy. They will have added motivation after progressing out of Group D as group winners.
4. Sweden (11/1)
Sweden were not amongst the favourites pre-tournament, but they have thoroughly impressed so far at the tournament, particularly against Germany.
The two nations played each other in the final Group C game to determine who would top the group. It was expected to be a tight game, but Sweden blew the Euro 2022 runners-up away in a 4-1 win.
The team have the stars and the quality to lift the trophy, but they have not done so since the inaugural women's Euros in 1984.
