The Euro 2024 last 16 draw will be finalised on Wednesday with five places still up for grabs on the final day of group stage action.

The draw has seemingly opened up for England, on paper at least, with Germany, Spain, France and Portugal now on the other side of the draw to Gareth Southgate’s men.
Let’s take a look at which teams have already been knocked out of Euro 2024 and which sides have qualified for the knockout stage with the Round of 16 draw and schedule.

Italy snatched a last-gasp draw against Croatia on Monday night to secure second spot in Group B.
England are joined in the last 16 by Group C rivals Denmark, whilst Slovenia’s point against England is enough to see them qualify for the knockout stages for the first time in their history.
Ralf Rangnick’s impressive Austria side were the surprise winners of Group D, finishing first ahead of France and Netherlands.
Portugal booked their place in the Round of 16 as group winners with wins against Czech Republic and Turkey with Roberto Martinez’s side catching the eye in Germany with their star-studded squad.
Netherlands, Slovakia and Slovenia are confirmed amongst the four best third-place teams, whilst Hungary currently occupy the final spot but will be pipped to a place in the knockouts if the Czech Republic beat Turkey on Wednesday.
