How do the Euro 2025 qualifiers work?

The top two sides from each League A group will automatically qualify for Euro 2025 alongside host nation Switzerland.

As for the remaining seven spots, they will be decided by a play-off round involving the best-ranked sides to not automatically book a spot at the tournament.

All third and fourth-placed teams in League A will qualify for the play-offs, along with the top three outfits in each of the four League B groups.

For League C, only the five group winners and the three best-ranked runners-up will reach the play-offs.
