Tie-breaking Criteria:
If two or more teams are equal on points on completion of the group matches, the following criteria are applied to determine the rankings:
a) Higher number of points obtained in the matches played between the teams in question;
b) Superior goal difference resulting from the matches played between the teams in question;
c) Higher number of goals scored in the matches played between the teams in question;
d) If, after having applied criteria a) to c), two teams still have an equal ranking, criteria a) to c) are reapplied exclusively to the matches between the two teams in question to determine the final rankings of the two teams. If this procedure does not lead to a decision, criteria e) to i) apply in the order given;
e) superior goal difference in all group matches;
f) higher number of goals scored in all group matches;
g) position in the UEFA national team coefficient ranking system (see annex I, paragraph 1.2.2);
h) fair play conduct of the teams (final tournament);
i) drawing of lots"

Group permutations explained
With the last set of group games to be played over the next four nights, 14 sides remain in contention for the quarter-finals. UEFA.com looks at the possible outcomes and tie-breakers.
Group A: Saturday
Greece (1pt) v Russia (4), Czech Republic (3) v Poland (2)
• Russia will be through with a draw, and could even afford a defeat by fewer than six goals if the other game finishes level.
• Greece will be through with a win, and out with a draw or loss.
• Czech Republic will advance with a win. They could even afford to draw unless Greece beat Russia by five goals or fewer.
• Poland will be through with a win, and out with a draw or loss.
Group B: Sunday
Denmark (3) v Germany (6), Portugal (3) v Netherlands (0)
• Germany are not quite through, but will be as group winners if they draw. They will be knocked out, though, if they lose to Denmark by any result other than a one-goal defeat in which Germany score at least two AND Portugal win.
• Denmark will progress with any win. A draw will only be good enough if Portugal lose. If Denmark lose they are out.
• Portugal will be through with victory unless Denmark win by a one-goal margin (other than 2-1 and 1-0). They will progress with a draw unless Denmark win. Portugal will also be through if they lose by a one-goal margin and Denmark are also beaten.
• The Netherlands must win by a two-goal margin and hope Denmark also lose.
Group C: Monday
Croatia (4) v Spain (4), Italy (2) v Republic of Ireland (0)
• Spain have the simplest task – a draw ensures qualification, a win ensures first place.
• Croatia will definitely qualify, as group winners, with victory. They will also be through with any draw other than 0-0 or 1-1. If their game is 0-0 and Italy win, Croatia are out. In the case of a 1-1 draw, they will only be through if Italy do not beat Ireland by 3-1 or better. Croatia can afford to lose if Italy do not win.
• Italy have to win and hope the other game does not finish in a high-scoring draw of 2-2 or more. If the other game finishes 1-1 they must win by 3-1 or better to finish above Croatia or better than 4-0 to top the group. If the other game finishes 0-0, an Italy win would take them through as group winners.
• Republic of Ireland are out but will finish third with a win.
Group D: Tuesday
Sweden (0) v France (4), England (4) v Ukraine (3)
• England will be through with a draw. If they lose, they have to hope France lose by enough so that England at least end level with Les Bleus on goal difference and goals scored (as England have a superior coefficient).
• Ukraine will be through with a win and out with any other result.
• France will be through with a draw. If they lose, they would only be out if England lose but at the same time move level with them on either goal difference or goals scored.
• Sweden are out.

Euro2012, Group B: Denmark vs. Germany 5.50 3.50 1.75 Bet NOW
Denmark face Germany in the L'Viv Arena in their final Group match. While the Germans are favourites, writing off Denmark could be dangerous for him. Germany are almost already assured of qualification but need to keep the last momentum, whereas the Danes need to get the three points to have a good chance of qualifying.
After the Danes' shock defeat over the Netherlands with a little bit lucky, they were unlucky to fall to the Portuguese 3-2. Portugal built a two-goal advantage before Denmark was able to score first. Even though the Danish drawned it in the second half thanks to Nicklas Bendtner's two headed. After all, Portuguese substitute Silvestre Varela put his country back on top with a well-hit score in the 87th minute. A draw would have made life easier for them. Now the Danes must win to guarantee progression, or rely on Portugal to lose to a disappointing holland side. But after the Portuguese performance against them manager Morten Olsen will realise that Portugal have a great chance in progressing.
