UEFA EURO 2024 GROUP B: Teams, Matches, Standings and Live Telecast Details

UEFA EURO 2024 in Germany is underway, and this is the 17th edition of the tournament which will run from June 14 – July 14. Back in December, the Euro 2024 draw named the 21 qualified teams with three playoff spots divided into groups of four.

2008 and 2012 Euro Champions, Spain are the favourites in Group B. They definitely might not be the force they once were despite the elite level of young talent packed into their roster. Italy, Euro 2020 champions, are entering its first major international tournament after missing out on World Cup qualification in 2022.

The omission of Ciro Immobile and Manuel Locatelli have left the Azzurri fans shocked despite their stunning season with their respective clubs. Teams present in Group B of UEFA Euro 2024 are:- Spain, Croatia, Italy and Albania.

UEFA Euro 2024 Group B Teams

Manager Luis de la Fuente has announced the Spain preliminary squad of 29 players, with senior players like Sergio Ramos and Marco Asensio missing out. They won the European Championships back in 2008 and 2012 and have a slightly younger crop in their roster for Euro 2024.

The Croatia Euro 2024 squad will be led by Real Madrid veteran Luka Modric, who will be representing his nation for the final time. The 2022 World Cup semi-finalists have announced a strong squad for the new iteration of the European Championships.
