Hoping for Italy in A or F but they will be in a group of death for sure.

Probably Group B

Yeah, England and France with cupcake groups.

It sucks that Poland and Ireland are in a group with Germany. They shouldnt have a team that they played in qualifying in the same group in the tournament but I suppose that cant be helped. At least its a different Ireland.

Ireland, Sweden, Italy, Belgium. Not seeing a win there for Ireland, probably two draws and a loss.

Groups A and B are sweethearts, C is okay, but D, E and F are rough.

I think A is the only real cupcake group

Think F is a lot weaker than B too

D/E/C are great groups

I'd rank them from toughest to easiest D, E, C, F, B, A. England and France should win all 3 games. Spain obviously the most likely top team to go out with the most difficult group.

A real chance for Croatia to advance. Ukraines hopes will result on their game vs Poland I think.

Group E is tough but happy it wasn't group D

That would have been ridiculous

I think the talking heads are really over-estimating Spain. This aint their grand-pappy's Spain of 2012, this is the hot Spanish mess of 2014.

I think the Turks and Czechs are going to take them to the edge and if Croatia gets their poop in a group they're the team I'd expect to win this group. Croatia has a really solid team.

Um. Sorry man, but Ukraine are just there to make up the numbers. They might squeak by N. Ireland but even that is doubtful.
