Sky Sports Euro 2016 predictor Make your predictions with our interactive wall chart here. Antoine Griezmann has scored a lot of goals for Atletico Madrid and is a very pacy player. As the host nation I think France will have a good tournament, so hell have plenty of chances with the likes of Paul Pogba behind him in the line-up. Smith predicts: Griezmann (9/1 with Sky Bet) Atletico Madrids Antoine Griezmann netted 22 times in La Liga Matt Le TissierIm going to go with the heart when it comes to the top goalscorer and pick one of Englands in-form frontmen.I think, having finished the season as the Premier Leagues top goalscorer, Harry Kane will be full of confidence and hes a decent price to finish the tournament as top scorer as well.Le Tiss predicts: Kane (14/1 with Sky Bet) Harry Kane scored 25 Premier League goals for Tottenham Charlie NicholasIm looking at different groups and how complicated they are. Ive gone for Spain in the outright and Im intrigued by who is going to lead the line for them.Alvaro Morata and Nolito are starting to produce the goals with the great creator Cesc Fabregas at the peak of his career.ddddddddddddIm going to go with Morata. Sometimes a player comes along and goes boom and produces on the big stage and I think it could be his tournament.Nicholas predicts: Morata (18/1 with Sky Bet) Alvaro Morata capped his campaign with a Coppa Italia winner Alan McInallyThats a really tough one actually. I think Griezmann has had a wonderful season. Ive already said I think France will do well and obviously the longer youre in the competition the better chance you have.Ronaldo is another favourite, but the scenario is that Portugal will probably have to do better than they have in recent competitions and get past the quarter-finals.However, if England have a wonderful competition then maybe Jamie Vardy, who can do no wrong, could be an outside shout and might be worth a tenner.McInally predicts: Vardy (33/1 with Sky Bet) Jamie Vardy has scored in his last three England appearances Phil ThompsonId probably go for Thomas Muller given Ive backed Germany to win it. Hes a serial scorer in any tournament and its difficult to look past him.
