Maybe this time football really is coming home.Hosts England are widely considered among the favourites to win Euro 2022 as Sarina Wiegman leads the Lione ses onto the big stage, and they can be considered marginal front-runners for a wide-open tournament.That conclusion is based on modelling from Stats Performs Artificial Intelligence team,using Optas data reserves to quantify each teams chances of winning the entire tournament.Every match has been run through the Stats Perform Womens Euro prediction model to calculate the estimated probability of the outcome (win, draw or lo s). This uses odds from betting markets and Stats Perform team rankings, which are based on historical and recent performances.The modeltakes into consideration the strength of each teams opponents as well as the difficulty of their respective paths to the final, plus the make-up of the groups and any relevant seedings heading into Martin Fehervary Jersey the knockouts.The rest of the tournament is then simulated thousands of times andanalysed, providing the probability of each team Dmitry Orlov Jersey progre sing round by round and ultimately lifting the trophy at Wembley on July 31.Spain have been widely portrayed as favourites, but La Roja might find it hard going in England. Here is a run-down of the AI results, and they might shock you.MOST LIKELY CHAMPIONS 1. England (19.3 per cent) Runners-up in 1984 and 2009, perhaps Englands second European finals on home soil could bring about atriumph the Lione ses have longed to achieve.They have such immense strength in their forward ranksthat Ellen White, joint top scorer at the 2019 World Cup, is not a sured of her place in the team. The likes of Ella Toone, Beth Mead and Ale sia Ru so couldpush White for the starting spot as striker, with three attackers set to feature in behind, as managerWiegman looks to blow away the opposition.England are given an 81.9 per cent chance of coming through the group stage to reach the quarter-finals, a 54.1 per cent shot at getting through to the semi-finals, and a 31.1 per cent hope of making it through to the Wembley trophy match. Their 19.3 per cent chance of carrying off the trophy means it is hardly a given that England will finish bathed in glory, and that is because the opposition is so strong. 2. France (18.5 per cent) Les Bleues left Amandine Henry and Eugenie Le Sommer out of their squad, meaning two of their recognised stars will be conspicuously absent from Corinne Diacres team.Stats Performs womens football Power Rankings puts France second on the global list, behind only the United States Jaromir Jagr Jersey , but coach Diacre is dicing with danger by omitting proven performers. Should things go wrong, fingers will likely be pointing her way.However, at the back France have the stalwart Wendie Renard skippering the side, while in attack the Paris Saint-Germain strikerMarie-Antoinette Katoto should make a big impact on her first major senior tournament. They po se s quality, notwithstanding the notable absentees.France have Italy, Belgium and Iceland as Group D rivals and are given a 74.8 per cent chance of advancing and are rated 49.1 per cent shots to make in into the semi-finals. 3. Sweden (14.6 per cent) FIFA ranks Sweden second Mike Gartner Jersey in its own rankings, and the Scandinavianswere only denied Olympic gold in Tokyo last year after a penalty shoot-out lo s to Canada in the final.They might lack superstar names, but the likes of BarcelonasFridolina Rolfo, MilansKosovare Asllani and ArsenalsStina Blackstenius are players to keep an eye on.The Swedes are given an84.2 per cent chance of reaching the quarter-finals the highest percentage of all teams as they head into a group that also features defending champions the Netherlands along with Switzerland and Portugal.4. Germany (11.5 per cent) The eight-time winners cannot be ruled out, but they are no longer the team that everyone fears. Starting off in the same pool as Spain complicates their task considerably, with Euro 2017 runners-up Denmark also in Group C, along with Finland.Given that line-up, Germany are given a Brett Connolly Jersey 72.8 per cent shot at finishing in the top two and reaching the quarter-finals, plus a 43.2 per cent chance of making the last four and a 22.0 per cent prospect of getting through to the final.
