The Upcoming team Euro 2012 predictions

The Upcoming Sports writers have come together to make their predictions for the Euro 2012 – ignore them at your peril!

Well actually there’s not much of a pattern to our footballing insights. In the main, we think that the final will be between Spain and France; that Portugal, England and Italy might not do as well as some people think; and that Van Persie will bag a few goals. We also think that Poland – as the home nation – might fare well.
