Euro 2024 bracket and knockout round schedule

The top two teams in each group, along with the top four third-place finishers, advance to the 16-team knockout round, meaning Hungary will have to wait to see if its three points are enough. Ties are broken first by head-to-head results — or results against all the level teams, in case of a multi-team tie — followed by goal differential and total goals scored. Beyond that, the calculations get more complicated.

Group B will wrap up Monday. Groups C and D will finish play Tuesday, while Groups E and F will end the group stage Wednesday. The tournament’s knockout stage commences with round of 16 games beginning Saturday.

In addition to Germany and Switzerland, Spain and Portugal have already clinched spots in the knockout round.

All days and times Eastern.

Monday’s Euro 2024 games

• Albania vs. Spain, 3 p.m.
• Croatia vs. Italy, 3 p.m.

Group B, considered one of the most challenging in the tournament, concludes Monday, and neither Croatia nor Italy is in a comfortable position. Italy, the defending champion, lost to Spain previously and needs at least a draw against Croatia to ensure passage to the knockout round. Aging Croatia is still led by Real Madrid star Luka Modric but enters Monday ranked last in the group.

Spain, meanwhile, has impressed thus far and is yet to concede a goal. La Roja has already clinched first place in the group. Albania scored first in each of its first two games but likely needs an unlikely win over Spain to advance.

Groups C and D both conclude Tuesday, as the tournament barrels toward the knockout stage. Group D will finish first, with France meeting Poland at noon Eastern and the Netherlands facing Austria at the same time. Poland has yet to record a point and was the first team eliminated from the tournament, while the Netherlands and Austria are both in strong position to advance. France will finish in the top two with at least a draw against Poland, or with a loss and a Netherlands win or draw.

In Group C, Denmark faces Serbia and England meets Slovenia, both at 3 p.m. Eastern. England is assured a top-two finish with a draw or win against Slovenia, or with a Denmark draw or loss against Serbia. Denmark is guaranteed passage with a win, but has plenty of other paths. Slovenia will also advance with a win, while Serbia — which enters in last place — needs at least a win, or a draw and a Slovenia loss, to have a chance.
