UEFA Euro 2024: Odds, groups, schedule, dates, TV and kick-off times, all you need to know
We have all you need to know for Euro 2024, including odds, fixtures, venues and TV information.
When and where is Euro 2024?
Euro 2024 runs from June 14 to July 14 at 10 different stadiums in Germany - the first time the tournament has been held in the country since re-unification, with West Germany hosting the 1988 European Championship.
When is the Euro 2024 final?
The Euro 2024 final will take place on July 14 at Berlin's Olympic Stadium.
How many teams take part and what is the format?
The format is the same as for Euro 2020, with 24 teams divided into six groups of four.
The top two teams in each group qualify for the round of 16, with the best four third-placed teams also progressing to single-legged knockout ties.
Who qualified and what are the groups?
Germany qualified automatically as hosts and will hope that inspires them to a successful summer after three successive major tournament failures.
Several high-profile European players will be missing, however, after Norway and Sweden failed to make the cut, meaning Premier League stars Erling Haaland, Martin Odegaard and Alexander Isak will all be watching on.
Georgia's qualification through the play-offs marks this as their first major tournament, while it is Slovenia's first Euros since 2000.
Who are the favourites to win Euro 2024?
Blessed with arguably the best crop of players for a generation and heading into what will likely be their final tournament under Gareth Southgate, England are favourites for tournament glory according to the odds.
France's price is just a smidgen longer.
It should come as little surprise that those two are considerably shorter than the rest given that England reached the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup, and the final of Euro 2020 before losing in the 2022 World Cup last eight to France - who have reached the last two World Cup finals, lifting the trophy in 2018.
