It's the year of the underdog in sport - Leicester won the Premier League, Connacht won the PRO12, and Manchester United won the FA Cup.
So it stands to reason that Ireland are going to upset the odds and lift the Henri Delaunay trophy in Paris on the tenth of July. Martin O'Neill's men are a tasty 150/1 with Ladbrokes to win the whole tournament, but there are a number of attractive odds to tickle your fancy.
We're the clear underdog in each of our three group games - only Sweden are odds-against against us. Ireland are a nice 2/1 to get the win in Paris on Monday week. If O'Neill has a plan for Ibrahimovic that price could look very good at the end of the game.
Ireland are 4/7 to be eliminated from Euro 2016 at the group stage, but we've certainly beaten the odds in past tournaments...
