Astrology may help explain which Euro 2020 teams have luck on their side[/caption]Which country has the luckiest team according to the stars?
England and France are considered joint favourites for Euro 2020, and taking a closer look at the star signs in charge of these two teams it’s no wonder!
French coach Didier Deschamp is a Libra, meaning that fairness is important to him and he will be keeping a close eye on his team’s energy, making sure things stay well-balanced.
Meanwhile, Capricorn Hugo Lloris, captain of the French team, brings an energy that is charged with determination and vigour.
With a full moon in Capricorn coming on June 24, you can be sure that the French team will find a lot of things working out in their favour. They may feel inspired to take risks, keeping the opponent constantly on their toes.
As for England, coach Gareth Southgate’s Virgo sign will help him to stay grounded and calm under pressure, while team captain Harry Kane embodies the typical confidence and drive of a Leo.

Cancer season tends to coincide with stronger emotions, empathy, and intuition. Water signs (like Cancer and Pisces) will be likely to flourish, while logical-minded air signs (such as Libra or Aquarius) might struggle to go with the flow.
Who could play in the final according to the zodiac?
On July 11, the day of the finals, Mercury enters Cancer which means that emotions are likely to be heightened and clear communication could present a challenge.
Again, water signs will be at a particular advantage here, and it would come as no surprise if the teams playing in the final have more than one Cancer on their side.
Wales and Germany are tied as the teams who have the highest representation of the Cancer sign on their team, both with five players.

There are five teams in Euro 2020 that have no players with the crab as their sign: these are Italy, Russia, Netherlands, Slovakia, and Hungary.
This means they will have to put in extra effort in order to keep communication flowing well between all team members.
