England Out to Dispel Euro 2024 Doubts Against Serbia

Germany: England’s attacking arsenal sees them start Euro 2024 as the bookmakers’ favorites to end a wait since 1966 to win a major tournament, but some doubts persist over the Three Lions ahead of Sunday’s opener against Serbia.

Gareth Southgate’s men have won just one of their last five matches — a run that includes a 1-1 draw with North Macedonia and a shock 1-0 home defeat to Iceland in their final warm-up match before flying out to Germany.

England are still expected to cruise through a group that also includes Denmark and Slovenia.

 However, a dominant display is required against the Serbs in Gelsenkirchen to settle nerves at the start of another tournament filled with high expectations, but which could still fail to deliver a long-awaited trophy.
