Fabio Capello's side can be backed to emerge triumphant from Poland and Ukraine when the competition takes place in two years at 9/1 with the same company.
William Hill spokesman Graham Sharpe observes: "England are starting to show the form people expected from them in South Africa - but they qualified comfortably for the World Cup, so the hard work is still to come."
