As the anticipation builds for the Women’s Euro 2025 tournament, analysts are weighing in on the frontrunners and standout players expected to shine on the international stage. Meanwhile, Spain dazzled the world with their run to an unexpected victory at the 2023 Women’s World Cup. Today, they’re the odds-on favorite to win Euro 2025! The tournament will feature exciting matches and key players from various nations, making it a highly anticipated event in women’s football.
Meanwhile, Spain’s upstart World Cup winners have been riding high on the confidence wave of their unexpected victory. As they enter Euro 2025 now with a powerful group, they appear well-situated to defend their title. Star midfielder and reigning Women’s Ballon d’Or winner Alexia Putellas is favored to be one of the tournament’s top goalscorers. Her teammate, Salma Paralluelo, will be looking to break out as the tournament’s top scorer, too. With both veterans and rising stars on their roster, Spain has a strong chance of winning the championship.
Key Players to Watch
Wieke Kaptein of the Netherlands has emerged as someone worth closely following. She’s expected to play a starring role in her team’s success, with the likelihood of them going a long way in the tournament. Kaptein’s influence could prove crucial to the Dutch side. They represent a resurgent Asia, with most observers regarding them as something of a dark horse in this tournament.
As well as Kaptein, England’s Alessia Russo should feature among the tournament’s leading scorers. She has certainly been bagging them, having netted in her last two outings for the Lionesses. Or maybe England’s just getting ready for their own derby match against Wales. Russo’s form will be crucial for their chances of advancing deep into the tournament.
Germany, with a relatively young but very firepower-filled lineup led by Giulia Gwinn might run deep. With a mix of youthful exuberance and experienced hands, they hope to return to their perennial role as one of Europe’s top clubs. Germany v Sweden this weekend is now even more unmissable. Germany had come off an astounding run that saw them dominating several matches, including the dramatic 2-1 victory over English in the quarterfinals.
Predictions for Group Dynamics
The tournament’s opening group stage even matchups are already guaranteed to be exciting matches that will determine what teams make it through to the knockout rounds. A highly anticipated clash will be between England and Spain, which is deemed crucial for both teams in terms of group standings. This tie not only threatens to decide their place in the division but also the mood for their separate campaigns.
Belgium has quietly been a surprising dominant force in the last few editions. They are adamant that they can beat even tougher teams in their group. That ability to make the unexpected happen makes their games a must-watch with the promise of them trying to leave their mark in Euro 2025.
Group D in for another thrilling clash! There’s the chance that those final games create an electric winner-and-in decider between the Netherlands and France. Either way, both teams are turning heads this season. The winner of this matchup will have a tremendous impact on what lies ahead for both teams in the prestigious tournament.
Emerging Contenders
Further down the line, Norway is creating quite a bit of excitement as a re-energized side welcomes back players from injury. Their recent performances suggest that they could make a deep run at Euro 2025. As they incorporate back in some of their returning stars to the mix, Norway’s matches will be must-watch television for fans and analytics nerds the world over.
This is possibly the most interesting aspect of this tournament. Few would bet against her being the key figure in changing her side’s fortunes either way based on how she plays over the course of Euro 2025.
