How will qualifying work?

EURO 2020 final: Italy 1-1 England (3-2 pens)

Every team in a group plays each other twice, with the top two in each section qualifying automatically for the finals alongside hosts Germany. That’s 21 of the 24 finals places taken care of, with a further three filled via the play-offs.

How do the play-offs fit in?

According to rules, three of the 24 berths at UEFA EURO 2024 will be decided through play-off spots via the 2022–2023 UEFA Nations League.

Twelve teams, theoretically the group winners of Leagues A, B, and C, will be chosen based on their performance in the 2022–23 Nations League; however, if they have already qualified, they will be replaced by the next-best club in their league. The process filters down to the next league, ending with League D, if there are not enough non-qualified teams in the current league.
