Belgium
With new manager Elisabet Gunnarsdottir still finding her feet and recent results underwhelming, Belgium will struggle to replicate their last-eight success of Euro 2022.
Teams
Switzerland
Ranked 23rd on the FIFA ranking, the host nation is under pressure to perform but ahead of their opening game against Norway plenty of question marks remain.
Denmark
With a talented team Denmark can just about beat anyone on their day, but Germany and Sweden will be tough to overcome in Group C.
Sweden
Sweden arrive at Euro 2025 as perennial contenders with unfinished business, armed with quiet determination and a sense of purpose shaped by years on the brink.
Finland
Drawn into a balanced but unforgiving group alongside Iceland, Norway and hosts Switzerland, Finland know progression to the knockout stages will require a near-flawless group campaign.
Portugal
Portugal arrive in Switzerland with a dream bigger than ever: to finally escape the group stage at a major tournament.
Poland
Poland arrive at Euro 2025 as one of the tournament’s most emotional and inspiring debut stories. Their playoff triumph over Austria in December to reach their first-ever major tournament was punctuated by raw celebration – a sign of the emotion they will bring to this summer’s festivities.
Norway
Norway are no longer the heavyweights they have been in the women’s international game that they have been in the past, but amid muted expectations, they should still be able to navigate Group A and deliver a respectable result.
Netherlands
Under manager Andries Jonker, the Dutch have lacked flair and cohesion to fulfill their potential and go on to greater heights at major tournaments.
Italy
After a disappointing World Cup in 2023, Italy are a squad with a point to prove—and the firepower to do it. Andrea Soncin’s side is built on experience up front and emerging flair on the wings, with a balanced midfield that can mix steel with subtlety and shake up Euro 2025.
Iceland
Iceland head to Switzerland with quiet confidence – and high expectations. Despite being drawn in a tricky group featuring hosts Switzerland, neighbours Norway, and Finland, Thorsteinn Halldórsson’s side believes it has what it takes to finish top.
Germany
Germany have limped from one problem to the next in the last few years, but recent results have been encouraging.
Spain
The reigning world champions Spain will be the favourites to win Euro 2025 and claim their first-ever continental title.
France
In-form and with a new generation in the ascent, can France at long last deliver on their enormous potential and conquer Europe?
