The UEFA Women's Euro 2025 is underway in Switzerland from July 2-27, with Spain, Germany and England being considered favorites. Sixteen teams are competing across eight Swiss cities for the title.

Spain, the reigning World Cup champions, have demonstrated their ambition to dominate women's soccer, aiming to add the European title to their recent World Cup victory. They have won five of their six competitive matches in 2025, scoring 21 goals. Their Euro 2025 group includes Portugal, Belgium, and Italy. A key player for Spain is Aitana Bonmatí, winner of the Ballon d'Or in 2023 and 2024, though she recently recovered from viral meningitis. Other notable Spanish players include Alexia Putellas. Spain's Euro 2025 kit is inspired by the Cubism movement, featuring pink and grey geometric shapes on an off-white base.

Germany, who have won the Women's Euro eight times, is also a strong contender. They have won five of their six games in 2025, scoring 26 goals and conceding only three. Germany qualified for the Euro 2025 by winning Group A4, with their only loss being a 3-0 defeat to Iceland in a dead rubber game. Their group includes Poland, Denmark, and Sweden. Key players for Germany include Klara Buhl and Lea Schuller.

England, the current European champions, face a challenging path in Group D against France, the Netherlands, and Wales. They are looking to defend their title, but will need to navigate a tricky group.

The tournament began with group stage matches from July 2-13, followed by quarter-finals from July 16-19 and semi-finals on July 22-23. The final is scheduled for July 27 in Basel.

The qualifying process for the tournament involved teams being divided into three leagues (A, B, and C) based on their performance in the 2023/24 UEFA Women's Nations League. The top two teams from each League A group automatically qualified for the final tournament, along with host Switzerland. The remaining spots were determined through play-offs.

Other teams to watch include France, Netherlands, Norway, and Sweden. Several players are expected to shine during the tournament, including Ewa Pajor (Poland) and Pernille Harder (Denmark).

The host cities for the tournament are Basel, Bern, Geneva, Lucerne, St. Gallen, Sion, Thun and Zurich. The official match ball is named KONEKTIS and features adidas Connected Ball Technology. The official mascot is Maddli, a Saint Bernard puppy.

UEFA aims to make the tournament environmentally friendly by implementing circular economy models to minimize waste. They also plan social responsibility initiatives regarding human rights, inclusion, and equality.
