The draw ceremony for the 2024 European Cup group match was held in Munich, Germany, on December 2, 2023. 24 teams were divided into six groups, the most striking of which was Group F, with four teams from Germany, France, Portugal and Hungary in the same group, known as the "Group of Death". England, on the other hand, was relatively lucky to be in Group D with Croatia, the Czech Republic and Scotland, avoiding direct conversations with other strong teams.

The European Cup 2024 will be held from June 14 to July 14, 2024 in 10 stadiums in 10 cities of Germany, with a total of 51 matches. The group stage will be held from June 14 to 26, and the top two of each group and the third of the four best performers will be promoted to the knockout stage. In the knockout phase, the quarter finals will be held from June 29 to July 2, the quarter finals will be held on July 5 and 6, the semi-finals will be held on July 9 and 10, and the final 1 will be held on July 14 at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin.
The following is the grouping of Euro 2024 group matches:
Group A: Italy, Switzerland, Turkey, Wales
Group B: Belgium, Russia, Denmark, Finland
Group C: Netherlands, Ukraine, Austria, Northern Macedonia
Group D: England, Croatia, Czech Republic, Scotland
Group E: Spain, Sweden, Poland, Slovakia
Group F: Germany, France, Portugal, Hungary
Group F is undoubtedly the most intense group. Germany, France and Portugal are all the favourites to win the European Cup, while Hungary is a dark horse whose strength cannot be underestimated. The confrontation between these four teams will be one of the highlights of the group stage and will also determine the trend of the knockout phase. The first general of Group F competes with the third general of Group C, while the second general of Group F competes with the first general of Group D, which means that there may be a war between Germany and France or between Britain and Germany.
England in Group D is relatively relaxed. Their opponents are not the best teams in Europe, and they have three group matches at the home Wembley Stadium, which is conducive to their own advantages. England's goal is to qualify at least in the group. If they can win the first place in the group, they are expected to avoid other strong teams in the knockout phase until the semi-finals.
