The group-stage draw for UEFA Euro 2024 is fast approaching.
The 21 qualified nations will find out who they are up against at the draw ceremony in Hamburg on Saturday, December 2, with three more teams still to be decided in next year's play-offs.
England and Scotland will represent the home nations, but Wales still have a chance of making it to Germany through the play-offs.
There is plenty of potential for one or numerous groups of death, with defending champions Italy lumped in Pot 4 and World Cup semi-finalists Croatia in Pot 3 alongside the Netherlands.
The draw is wide open thanks to UEFA’s decision to allocate pots in accordance with results in qualifying groups.
Therefore, the final position and points teams achieved in their Euro 2024 qualifiers was taken into consideration ahead of a country’s FIFA ranking.
Germany earned a spot in Pot 1 due to their status as hosts, followed by the best group winners in Portugal, France, Spain, Belgium and England.
Six groups of four will be drawn for the tournament next summer, where the top two from each group and the four best third-placed teams will qualify for the knockout stages.
When is the Euro 2024 finals draw?
The draw takes place at 5pm UK time on Saturday, December 2. The draw will be held in Hamburg.
