England Odds: Three Lions Euro 2020 favourites amid host rumours

Could football be coming home twice in the next decade? That's the rumour as speculation mounts that England could host this summer's rescheduled Euro 2020 tournament and join forces with Ireland to bid for the World Cup in 2030.

England are 6.25/1 favourite to win this summer's Euros and 10.09/1 to win next year's World Cup in Qatar.

Speculation has been mounting that the original plan to hold Euro 2020 matches across 12 countries might not be feasible due to Covid-19 and the UK prime minister Boris Johnson told The Sun the UK would host other matches if needed by UEFA.

Host cities have until April 5 to confirm the number of fans allowed at matches and a decision about how the tournament is staged will be made after that.

Both semi-finals and the final are already due to be played at Wembley - the first major men's international tournament football on British soil since 1996 - and that's one reason why many bettors think this could be England's year.

Four other matches are also set to take place there, including England's three Group matches against Croatia, Scotland and Czech Republic.

Belgium overtake France as second favourites

Gareth Southgate's men qualified comfortably for Euro 2020, winning seven of their eight matches and hitting 37 goals, although they were disappointing in their subsequent Nations League campaign.

They surpassed expectations to reach the World Cup semi-finals in Russia three years ago. Under Southgate's steady stewardship they played with freedom and composure. Will they be able to handle the pressure that comes with favouritism this summer, especially when playing at Wembley?

In the outright betting world champions France have drifted to 7.413/2 with Belgium 7.06/1 overtaking them.
