UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying Group E
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Group E of UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying was one of the ten groups to decide which teams would qualify for the UEFA Euro 2024 final tournament in Germany. Group E consisted of five teams: Albania, the Czech Republic, Faroe Islands, Moldova and Poland. The teams played against each other home-and-away in a round-robin format.[1]
The top two teams, Albania and the Czech Republic, qualified directly for the final tournament. The participants of the qualifying play-offs were decided based on their performance in the 2022–23 UEFA Nations League.
