Who needs what to qualify for Euro 2025 knockouts?

We’ve reached the second round of group-phase fixtures at Euro 2025, and with it comes the chance of teams either securing their place in the knockout stage, or being eliminated.

England and Wales are both in trouble after opening-game defeats, while world champions Spain were ominously impressive.

The top two teams from each of the four groups will progress to the quarter-finals, with the sides in third and fourth eliminated.

If two or more teams in the same group are equal on points at the end of the phase, the following criteria will determine their rankings:

Through to the quarter-finals: Norway, Spain

Remaining fixtures (all times BST): Finland v Switzerland & Norway v Iceland (both 10 July, 20:00)

Norway became the first team to secure their place in the quarter-finals with a win over Finland on Sunday, combined with Switzerland’s victory. They are guaranteed top spot because of their head-to-head record against both teams.

Hosts Switzerland go into the final round of games knowing a point would see them progress via goal difference.

Finland need to beat Switzerland to go through.

Remaining fixtures (all times BST): Italy v Spain & Portugal v Belgium (both 11 July, 20:00)

Spain progressed following the second round of group games, after they beat Belgium and Portugal failed to win against Italy.

The Spanish will win Group B if they avoid defeat versus Italy in the final round of games.

Italy will go through as group winners if they beat Spain, or as runners-up if they avoid defeat.

Portugal can only progress as runners-up if they beat Belgium, Italy lose to Spain and there is a six-goal swing between them and the Italians.

Remaining fixtures (all times BST): Germany v Denmark (8 July, 17:00), Poland v Sweden (8 July, 20:00), Poland v Denmark & Sweden v Germany (both 12 July, 20:00)

Eight-time winners Germany will progress to the last eight on Tuesday if they beat Denmark and Poland fail to beat Sweden.

Sweden, who have progressed in the past eight tournaments, will be through if they win and Germany avoid defeat.

Remaining fixtures (all times BST): England v Netherlands (9 July, 17:00), France v Wales (9 July, 20:00), England v Wales & Netherlands v France (both 13 July, 20:00)

The Netherlands, who won the tournament in 2017, will progress if they beat England and France avoid defeat by Wales.

France will be through if they beat Wales and England fail to beat the Netherlands.

Defending champions England will be out if they lose to the Netherlands and France are not beaten by Wales.
