Finland

Jump to another team


Coach
Marko Saloranta
Group
Fifa rankRank
A
26

Having beaten Scotland in the qualifying playoff, Finland travel to Switzerland hoping to get out of the group. Read the team guide here.

Star player
Natalia Kuikka

Strengths

Saloranta has developed a very discplined side who play as a team and normally take their chances.

Weaknesses

Key players such as Kuikka, Pikkujämsä and Rantala have struggled with injuries. Finland are not the same without Rantala.





Iceland

Jump to another team


Coach
Thorsteinn Halldórsson
Group
Fifa rankRank
A
14

Beat Germany 3-0 in Reykjavík last year, showing that they are a match for anyone on their day. Read the team guide here.

Star player
Glódís Perla Viggósdóttir

Strengths

Solid defensively with fast counterattacks. Look out for Jónsdóttir's long throws as an attacking threat.

Weaknesses

Have struggled to turn draws into wins in the past year and key player Viggósdóttir has been injured.





Norway

Jump to another team


Coach
Gemma Grainger
Group
Fifa rankRank
A
16

Grainger appears to have built a better team spirit and created more unity, which was needed. Read the team guide here.

Star player
Caroline Graham Hansen

Strengths

In Hegerberg, Graham Hansen and Terland Norway have one of the best forward lines in Europe.

Weaknesses

Paradoxically they have struggled to score enough goals and have lacked rhythm in their attacking game.





Switzerland

Jump to another team


Coach
Pia Sundhage
Group
Fifa rankRank
A
23

Excitement for the tournament has been building in the host country for months but form has not been good. Read the team guide here.

Star player
Lia Wälti

Strengths

The home support will be loud and in 19-year-old Schertenleib they have one of the most exciting youngsters on the continent.

Weaknesses

Legendary forward Bachmann tore her ACL in a pre-tournament camp and coach Sundhage has been tactically inflexible.





Belgium

Jump to another team


Coach
Elísabet Gunnarsdóttir
Group
Fifa rankRank
B
20

Sacked Serneels after 14 years in charge. In came Gunnarsdóttir, who prefers a 5-4-1 formation. Read the team guide here.

Star player
Tessa Wullaert

Strengths

In Wullaert and Janssens, Belgium have two players perfectly suited to the new coach's counterattacking style.

Weaknesses

During the Nations League they could at times panic in possession, but Gunnarsdóttir has said they will work on that.





Italy

Jump to another team


Coach
Andrea Soncin
Group
Fifa rankRank
B
13

Italy have gone through a modest generational change that has led to a somewhat surprising rebirth. Read the team guide here.

Star player
Cristiana Girelli

Strengths

Soncin has created a very fluid team, who can change shape during a game and in Cantore they have a potential matchwinner.

Weaknesses

Key player Dragoni will miss the tournament with injury, creating a huge gap in midfield for Soncin.





Portugal

Jump to another team


Coach
Francisco Neto
Group
Fifa rankRank
B
22

The Navigators are looking to progress to the knockout phase of a major tournament for the first time. Read the team guide here.

Star player
Kika Nazareth

Strengths

Barcelona's Kika Nazareth is one of the most exciting young players on the continent – and has just recovered from injury.

Weaknesses

The end of the Nations League was poor with four straight defeats. 'The only way out of the slump is hard work,' says Neto.





Spain

Jump to another team


Coach
Montse Tomé
Group
Fifa rankRank
B
2

The world champions have to be the favourites to win their first European Championship.

Star player
Alexia Putellas

Strengths

They have the best midfield in the world and their forward line is full of goals with Pina, González and Paralluelo all able to finish as top scorer.

Weaknesses

They have lost a lot of experience with Hermoso and Andrés two players who are no longer in the squad.





Denmark

Jump to another team


Coach
Andrée Jeglertz
Group
Fifa rankRank
C
12

Have had a turbulent buildup, including a 6-1 defeat against Sweden.

Star player
Pernille Harder

Strengths

Denmark know how to get the ball into the box – they have an array of wing-backs who are excellent at putting crosses in.

Weaknesses

Jeglertz wants the team to be calm in possession but they sometimes hold on to the ball for too long. Losing the ball carelessly will be punished.





Germany

Jump to another team


Coach
Christian Wück
Group
Fifa rankRank
C
3

Desperate to regain the title they won eight out of nine times from 1989 (as West Germany) to 2013.

Star player
Giulia Gwinn

Strengths

Coach Wück prefers to play on the front foot and his front four – Brand, Dallmann, Bühl and Schüller – are a frightening prospect for any defence.

Weaknesses

Have lost a lot of experience with the international retirements of Popp, Huth, Hegering and Frohms.





Poland

Jump to another team


Coach
Nina Patalon
Group
Fifa rankRank
C
27

Poland are playing in their first Euros, having overcome Romania and Austria in the playoffs.

Star player
Ewa Pajor

Strengths

Patalon has built a very discplined side that defends as a unit. The players will not stop running for the cause.

Weaknesses

An over-reliance on the only superstar in the team, Barcelona's Pajor, for goals





Sweden

Jump to another team


Coach
Peter Gerhardsson
Group
Fifa rankRank
C
6

This will be Gerhardsson's last tournament after eight years in charge. Can he end his spell on a high?

Star player
Johanna Rytting Kaneryd

Strengths

Sweden have a strong spine and the tournament knowhow needed to go far. There are also youngsters coming through.

Weaknesses

Can they open up a low block? They had trouble breaking down Wales in the Nations League – two draws – and Rolfö goes into the tournament with an injury.





England

Jump to another team


Coach
Sarina Wiegman
Group
Fifa rankRank
D
5

Lionesses aim to become first side to defend European Championship title since Germany in 2013.

Star player
Leah Williamson

Strengths

Talent-wise they are one of the best in Europe and they have a coach who has won the past two tournaments.

Weaknesses

The withdrawals of Bright and Earps shocked everyone and key players lack match practice.





France

Jump to another team


Coach
Laurent Bonadei
Group
Fifa rankRank
D
10

Bonadei has taken a huge gamble by leaving out the experienced Renard, Le Sommer and Dali.

Star player
Sakina Karchaoui

Strengths

Baltimore and Diani are two of the quickest forwards around and in defence a new partnership has blossomed between Mbock and Lakrar.

Weaknesses

France now have a reputation of choking in major tournaments – are the players strong enough mentally to change the narrative?





Netherlands

Jump to another team


Coach
Andries Jonker
Group
Fifa rankRank
D
11

Coach will be replaced after the summer – and is not happy about it. They are under pressure going into the finals.

Star player
Lineth Beerensteyn

Strengths

There is an abundance of talent in the squad and the wing-backs will cause opponents trouble with their tireless running.

Weaknesses

There has been criticism in the Dutch media that the regeneration of this squad is taking too long and that the team going to Switzerland peaked some time ago.





Wales

Jump to another team


Coach
Rhian Wilkinson
Group
Fifa rankRank
D
30

Wales may be the lowest-ranked team at the tournament – but they are not in Switzerland as tourists. A highly competitive side.

Star player
Jess Fishlock

Strengths

Wilkinson has raised standards and, perhaps even more importantly, infused belief in a side led by the incomparable Fishlock.

Weaknesses

There is no denying that world-class quality is lacking in the squad and key member Ingle only just made it after injury.
