Germany
Germany mesmerised everybody at the 2010 World Cup with their youthful team. The likes of Mesut Ozil, Thomas Muller, Mario Gotze and Mario Gomez were phenomenal. Few will forget their mauling of England. They have won eleven competitive matches in a row now, and all 10 of their Euro 2012 qualifying matches. They have won the European Championship 3 times (1972, 1980 and 1996) and were runners up in 2008. They are understandably one of the favourites, along with Holland and Spain, to win this summers European Championship.
Star Performer: Miroslav Klose Miroslav Klose has 115 International caps, has scored 63 times and is Germanys second all time top goal scorer and second most capped player. He is also the only player in World Cup history to have scored at least four goals in three World Cups. Along with the aforementioned youngsters, Germany also have Bastian Schweinsteiger, Lukas Podolski and Phillip Lahm. Though they have failed to progress past the Group Stages in two of the last three Championships, it's hard to see them not qualifying this time.
Prediction: 2nd
