Quarter-finals are set to take place between Wednesday 20th and Saturday 23rd of July. With such high competition, the final 8 could throw some real surprises.
The semi-finals will be hosted at Bramall Lane on Tuesday 26th and then at Stadium MK on Wednesday 27th July with the final at Wembley Stadium on 31st July.

Teams to Watch
England
The hosts are full of confidence going into this tournament and will only be helped by the adoration of home fans. There may be a higher expectation on their shoulders, but if Sarina Wiegman’s side can keep out the noise of the media, they will be in with a real chance at going all the way.
England to make the final is 33/20 at Bet777.be.
France
The French are a formidable side who went unbeaten in their entire qualifying campaign. Corinne Diacre has assembled a talented squad who are well organised and hard to beat. After hosting the 2019 Women’s World Cup and losing out to eventual winners USA in the quarter-finals, they are out for redemption.
Marie-Antoinette Katoto to win the golden boot is 15/2 at Bet777.be.
Belgium
Massive outsiders with nothing to prove, Ives Serneels and her Belgium side could be a real dark horse for this tournament. They breezed through qualifying and have gone under the radar in most conversations about top contenders. A tough but manageable set of group games could see them reach the quarter-finals through their tactical nous. Once into the knockouts they would be a tough opponent for any team.
At Bet777.be we have Belgium to win Group D at 12/1, with France currently favourites to top the group at 1/4.
Looking Ahead
So much football is left to play and the excitement is really beginning to build. With an entire month full of thrills ahead, there is anticipation that this could be one of the most competitive tournaments in refnet years.
For that reason, it really is anyone’s title to win. Expect the big hitters in Spain, England, France and the Netherlands all to make it out of their groups. Outside of that however, there are a lot of sides who could cause upsets and make a run.
Tournament football is special and unique in that you truly never know what to expect. Every time a tournament comes around there are always overachievers, underdog stories and everything in between.
Whatever happens it is sure to be a fascinating competition, get ready for the fun to begin with the first match of UEFA Women’s Euro 2022 on Wednesday 6th July at 9pm.
