Sarina Wiegman's team, who beat Germany in the 2022 final at Wembley, were placed in a stern-looking Group D, alongside fellow heavyweights France and the Netherlands, during Monday's draw in Lausanne.

This will be the 14th edition of the Women's Euros since the tournament's inauguration in 1984. 

Switzerland, who will face Norway, Iceland and Finland, are hosting the competition for the first time, becoming the sixth nation to host both the men's and women's Euros, after Germany, Italy, Sweden, England and the Netherlands.

Two of the 16 teams are making their tournament debuts – Wales and Poland – with the other 14 sides having already featured in at least one previous edition.

The 2022 runners-up Germany will go up against Poland, Denmark and Sweden, while world champions Spain were drawn against Italy, Belgium and Iberian neighbours Portugal.

The tournament runs from July 2 through to July 27.

It will be hosted across eight stadiums, with Basel's St. Jakob-Park hosting the opening match – which sees Switzerland take on Norway – and the final.

Group A: Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, Finland

Switzerland have never reached the knockout stages at the Euros. In fact, they have won only one of their previous six matches at the event, with that win coming against Iceland in 2017 (2-1). The Swiss have not managed to keep a single clean sheet in the competition.

However, they will have the home fans on their side. The바카라 웹사이트last time a host country failed to make it to the knockout stages of the tournament was in 2005, when England missed out.

Champions바카라 웹사이트in 1987 and 1993, Norway have won only one of their last eight matches at the Euros (D1 L6) – failing to score in six of these fixtures – and have been knocked out in the group stages on each of their last two participations.바카라 웹사이트

However, they have plenty of talent to call on in their squad, including Frida Maanum, who scored seven goals in as many games in qualifying.

Aside from Germany, Norway are the only other team to have won the title바카라 웹사이트on multiple occasions (twice). Sweden (1984), the Netherlands (2017) and England (2022) are the other winners.

Iceland have won just one of their 13 Euros matches –바카라 웹사이트that 8% win ratio바카라 웹사이트is the lowest among바카라 웹사이트the 14바카라 웹사이트teams qualified for 2025 who have previously appeared in the competition.

Finland won바카라 웹사이트three바카라 웹사이트of their opening six Euros matches and reached the knockout stages of their first two tournaments, in 2005 and 2009. However, they have since failed to win any of their last eight games (D2 L6) and bowed out at the group phase in both 2013 and 2022.바카라 웹사이트

Group B: Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Italy

World champions Spain were drawn into top spot in Group B.

This will be Spain's fifth appearance at the Euros, as they바카라 웹사이트aim to become only the second team after Germany to concurrently hold the World Cup and Euro titles바카라 웹사이트in the women's game.

Spain should be confident of progressing to the last eight, given their opposition.

Among teams to have taken part in at least two editions of the tournament,바카라 웹사이트Portugal have the worst defensive record, conceding 2.5 goals per game on average (15 goals conceded in six바카라 웹사이트matches).

Belgium, meanwhile, are not renowned for high-scoring encounters. Their seven matches바카라 웹사이트at the Euros have produced 1.86 goals on average (six goals for, seven바카라 웹사이트against), which is the lowest ratio amongst the 16 teams to have qualified.

Italy are competing in their 13th edition of the tournament, with only Norway able to match that number of participations.바카라 웹사이트No team has played as many games as Italy at the Euros without ever winning the tournament (35 matches, including two바카라 웹사이트appearances in the final).바카라 웹사이트

Group C: Germany, Poland, Denmark, Sweden

Eight-time champions Germany head up Group C. They have lost only three바카라 웹사이트of their last 40 matches at the Euros바카라 웹사이트(W33 D4) – those defeats came against Norway in 2013 (group phase), Denmark in 2017 (quarter-final) and England in 2022 (final).

Poland set the lowest goal difference during qualification of all 16 teams to qualify for next year's event (-7).

They lost all six of their qualifying group-phase matches before winning their four play-off contests.바카라 웹사이트

Denmark, with 33 Euros matches played, trail only Italy when it comes to games played without winning the competition.

Germany and Sweden will be the favourites to progress, and they are the only teams to have always reached the knockout stages at each edition of the Euros since the group phase was introduced in 1997.

Group D: France, England, Wales, Netherlands

France and England will face off against each other in a heavyweight Group D opener.

France have reached the knockout stages of the Euros바카라 웹사이트in each of the last four editions, the longest current streak excluding those of Germany and Sweden. Of the teams who have never made the final,바카라 웹사이트France have played more matches than any other nation (26).

Their best performance was reaching the semi-final in 2022, when바카라 웹사이트they were knocked out by Germany.바카라 웹사이트

England manager Wiegman will also come up against her home nation, the Netherlands – the team she led to Euros glory in 2017.

Wiegman, who has won all 12 of her games at the tournament,바카라 웹사이트is the only boss to win the Euros with two different nations (Netherlands in 2017, England in 2022). In 2025, she could become the second manager바카라 웹사이트to win the tournament in three consecutive editions, after Germany's Tina Theune.

It is a daunting task for debutants Wales.

Only four debutants have ever made it to the knockout stages of the tournament since the group stage was introduced: Spain in 1997, Finland in 2005, the Netherlands in 2009 and Austria in 2017.바카라 웹사이트

The Netherlands have won eight바카라 웹사이트of their last 10 matches over the last two tournaments (D1 L1);바카라 웹사이트their only defeat in that time came against France, in the 2022바카라 웹사이트quarter-finals.

Their바카라 웹사이트overall 56% win ratio at the Euros바카라 웹사이트(10 wins in 18 matches) is second only to Germany (78%, 36 wins in 46 matches).
