FOOTBALL'S coming home this summer according to AI-driven analysis, which says England have the best chance of winning Euro 2024.

Gareth Southgate's team have an almost one-in-four likelihood of lifting the trophy, making them the favourites ahead of two-time winners France and hosts Germany.

The prediction is based on 10,000 simulations of the tournament carried out by data experts Sportradar using its AI-powered algorithm.

England lost in the final of the last Euros but are fancied to go one better this time, with Sportradar calculating they have a 24 per cent chance.

France, who ended English hopes at the 2022 World Cup and went on to finish runners-up, are estimated to have an 18.1 probability of glory.

Germany are third favourites despite early exits at the last three major tournaments, with a 15.2 per cent chance, with 2016 winners Portugal fourth (10.5 per cent) and Spain fifth (9.3 per cent).

Scotland are among the biggest longshots to win Euro 2024 in only their second major tournament appearance since 1996.

France hotshot and new Real Madrid signing Kylian Mbappe is the most likely man to win the Golden Boot with an implied chance of 15.2 per cent.
