How does the Euro 2024 draw work?
Qualified nations have been allocated to one of four pots (1, 2, 3 or 4) in advance of the draw, based on their performances during qualifying. Hosts Germany are seeded in Pot 1 but are not drawn as they are automatically allocated to Group A. The three teams who qualify via the play-offs next March are allocated to Pot 4.
A further six pots (A, B, C, D, E or F) are required to draw the respective team’s position in each group. Pots B-F contain four balls each to represent the positions available in each group (eg B1, B2, B3 and B4). Pot A contains only three balls for the positions A2, A3 and A4 in Group A, since Germany will occupy position A1.
