The November international break brought about the conclusion of Euro 2024 qualifying, and we can now look forward to the group-stage draw.

Three places at next summer's tournament are still up for grabs, and they will be decided via the play-offs - scheduled to take place in March 2024.

While we don't yet know all 24 teams that'll be taking part in Euro 2024, the draw is just around the corner and UEFA have already designated each of the 21 qualified teams to one of the four pots as part of the seeding process.

Here's everything you need to know about the pots for the Euro 2024 draw.

When is Euro 2024?

The tournament will get underway on 14 June 2024 and conclude with the final exactly a month later on 14 July 2024.

The 2023/24 Premier League season ends on 19 May 2024, giving international coaches less than a month with their players to prepare for the continental jamboree.

Who is hosting Euro 2024?

Unlike the previous pan-European iteration of the competition, all 51 games will take place within the same country

Germany will host the tournament next summer. It's the first time the traditional footballing powerhouse has hosted the Euros since reunification, although matches were held in Munich at Euro 2020. Germany also staged the 2006 World Cup with great success.

Ten cities and stadiums have been confirmed as the host venues for Euro 2024. These include Berlin's Olympiastadion, Bayern Munich's Allianz Arena, and Borussia Dortmund's Signal Iduna Park.

Hosts Germany were automatically assigned to Pot 1, but the remaining 20 teams who have secured their places at Euro 2024 were placed in pots based on their performance in qualifying.

Germany are joined in the top pot by some of the pre-tournament favourites like France, England, and Portugal, while the impressive performances of Austria, Romania, and Albania in qualifying means they've snuck into Pot 2 ahead of the Netherlands and Croatia.

With Italy merely scraping automatic qualification ahead of Ukraine, the defending champions have been placed into Pot 4. The Azzurri sit alongside Serbia and Switzerland and will be joined by the three play-off winners.

The draw will work as any other. One team is selected from each pot to make up six groups of four nations.

When is the Euro 2024 draw?

Saturday 2 December 2023 at 18:00 CET (17:00 GMT).

The draw will be held at the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg, Germany - one of the ten host cities for next summer's tournament.
