Meanwhile, Opponents Spain are trying to win this tournament for a record fourth time.
Luis de la Fuente’s side have won all six of their matches so far, including victories against international heavyweights France, Germany, Italy and Croatia.
Their semi-final win against France saw winger Lamine Yamal, who will turn 17 the day before the final which is on Saturday, becomes the youngest scorer in European Championship history.
Who is more likely to win the trophy?
After a long month of continental competition stretching from one end of Germany to the other, Euro 2024 is set to conclude the trophy on Sunday in Berlin, where Spain will battle it out with Enngland at the Olympiastadion.
Truth be told,The paths these two teams have taken to the German capital are starkly different.
Spain have been outstanding in the tournament, they are only side to consistently turn in eye-catching performances.
England, meanwhile, have largely looked like less than the sum of their parts.
but their collection of stars have managed to dig deep and grind out the results required to reach a second consecutive European Championship final.
Despite not being impressive at the beginning stages of the competition, they were able to pull those strings and get themselves to the final.
 Could England win?
England wasn’t so good at the the beginning stages of the tournament but they managed to get themselves out of the group stage.
They produced their best performance of the tournament by some distance in the semifinals.
There is a kind of high spirits and optimism behind them right now and a surging belief that comes from pulling out results late on.
Jude Bellingham’s 95th-minute equaliser against Slovakia, the penalty shootout win over Switzerland and Ollie Watkins’ 90th-minute winner against Netherlands have created a feeling England could somehow be destined to lift their first major trophy in 58 years.
There were signs against the Netherlands that England’s attacking talents were starting to develop an understanding and some of the combinations between Kobbie Mainoo, Phil Foden and Bukayo Saka in particular were extremely exciting.
Jordan Pickford is having another tournament in which he takes his game to another level, while Marc Guéhi has been a major find at centre-back.
Luke Shaw’s likely return in time for his first start of the tournament will give better balance to the team given he is a natural left-footer as opposed to Kieran Trippier, who has been filling in at left-back or left wing-back for the longest
After all the chaos of the early rounds, manager Gareth Southgate has seemingly found a degree of stability in his lineup
 Could Spain win?
No one is arguing that Spain have been the best team at Euro 2024.
They have won all six matches and have already beaten hosts Germany and pre-tournament favourites France in the knockout rounds.
They have done so scoring the most goals (13), creating the most chances (96) and by playing front-foot, attacking football.
The new development in the team mainly in the forwards has really boasted the teams strength.
A lot of the focus has been on the young stars added to the team, example, wingers like Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal.
Thanks to them, they can now go direct and cause problems in transition, although they also still manage the ball so well.
They press diligently, have a nice balance to the side, a clear idea of how they want to play and in Rodri they might have the Player of the Tournament.
Lamine Yamal’s goal against France has been the talk of the town, which can go ahead to contest the best goal of the tournament with Jude Bellingham’s bicycle kick against Slovakia in the Quarter-finals.
Ballon d’Or shouts are growing for the Manchester City midfielder Rodri, who has been exceptional in the tournament so far and the chances are if he’s on song, Spain will win.
City’s FA Cup final defeat ended a run of 74 games unbeaten for his club, but Rodri has stepped straight back into winning ways with his country.
Spain were considered outsiders before the tournament, but the quiet optimism that has radiated from the camp since they opened with a 3-0 win against Croatia has proven justified. They go into the final as favourites.
What weaknesses could each team use to exploit the opponent?
Spain is considered to be good in all round the field. They have shown that in their subsequent matches.
If England can play through the press when they win the ball, they could create chances, although they will need to be more willing to run in behind than they have been so far.
Spain play with the highest defensive line at the tournament. Goalkeeper Unai Simón has also had a couple of mistakes in his games.
His mistake led to a Croatia penalty in the opener which was missed and he almost gifted Germany a goal in the quarter finals, although Kai Havertz could only loft the ball onto the roof of the net.
Spain will focus on their strengths more than England’s weaknesses.
They will look to Rodri and Fabián Ruiz to run the game and rely on Williams and Yamal to win their battles against the England.
England’s inability to keep possession has been a major problem in tournament failing.
Although Spain are more direct under De la Fuente, they remain excellent in that regard with Rodri being the absolute master of dictating play and so the midfield battle will be vital.
If England can dominate in the game, their strong attacking talents could exploit a vulnerable-looking Spain defence, particularly at centre-back.
The essence of a linesman in football
May shockingly not start the match considering a hit to his right foot against Netherlands.
Unless it is not more serious than first feared but England’s firepower off the bench could also be telling.
Both Watkins and Ivan Toney have contributed key moments in this tournament to date, the former spectacularly so in scoring the 90th-minute winner against Netherlands, taking advantage of a tiring defence.
Sunday will sure be like a clash of titans, both are now rated as favorites to win the trophy.
Who will go home with the prize? The match and the pattern of play will decide that.
