The UEFA European Under-19 Championship returns after being cancelled for the last two seasons due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with Slovakia hosting the finals between 18 June and 1 July.

We introduce the eight teams who will compete for the title including four past champions and two nations who have never made it past the group stage.

The groups
