European countries will learn their fate on Tuesday when the draws for Women’s Euro 2025 qualifying are made in Nyon.
Of Uefa’s 55 countries, 51 will enter the draw including Switzerland who have automatically qualified for next year’s tournament as the host nation.
Defending champions England are in the draw, hoping to qualify and retain their crown.
Qualifying takes place between April and July.
The new-look format will see 15 teams earn qualification.
The 51 teams hoping to qualify for next year’s tournament in Switzerland have been split into three leagues – A, B and C.
Which teams enter which league was determined by the results of the 2023-24 Nations League campaign. Leagues A and B consist of 16 teams, while League C has 19 teams.
In each league, the teams have been split up into four seeding pots.
In Leagues A and B, four groups will be drawn consisting of a team from each pot.
League C has five groups, with only three teams in one of them.
The top two sides from each League A group will automatically qualify for Euro 2025. The remaining seven spots will be decided via play-offs involving the best-ranked sides not to automatically qualify.
