Brazen England fans have already been getting Euro 2024 winners tattoos so convinced Harry Kane and the boys will be victorious.
Dan Thomas, from Swindon, Wiltshire, is among those who is ultra-confident England will defeat Spain despite not winning major honours since the World Cup in 1966.
The data consultant spent two and a half hours getting a trophy and the words “England Euro 2024 Winners” tattooed on his leg three days ago.
The 29-year-old went to the Reign Barbers and Tattoos parlour in Swindon on Thursday – the day after England booked its place in the final.
“I thought (England) would get far, so it’s come as no shock,” he said.
“I’m pretty confident. I think it will happen. I wouldn’t have got it done if I didn’t think it would happen.
“I think it will be close and I think it will be 1-1, but go to extra time. I think we’ll win 2-1 at extra time.”
It comes as England stars triumphantly saw off the Netherlands on Wednesday in the semi-final with a last gasp Ollie Watkins winner.
The Three Lions are hoping to end their 58-year wait for glory against Spain.
Before the players head to Berlin for the final, the athletes prepared at their luxury base in Blankenhain.
All 26 members of the squad were in full training.
