Despite four of the six third-place finishers advancing from the group stages, Ireland aren't even being backed to get out, priced at 4/7 to exit after their three group games.
And, if you really, really, really don't think Ireland are going to win the whole thing, here are the prices you can get them at to be eliminated at certain phases.
Ireland's stage of elimination
Group stage - 4/7 Last 16 - 11/5 Quarter-final - 9/1 Semi-final - 22/1 Runner-up - 66/1

Italy 3/4 Draw 5/2 Ireland 16/5

Here's to underdogs biting.
