Sweden qualified for the European Football Championships as runners-up in group F to Spain, with eight victories, two draws and two defeats, the group also contained teams such as Northern Ireland, Iceland and Denmark. Sweden tend to do surprisingly well in major competitions however, realistically they may struggle to even get through the group stages as they are in Group D of the tournament along with Spain, Russia and current champions Greece. Even if they do progress through the group stages, they are likely to have to play either France or Italy in the knockout stages which will be a difficult game to progress from.

Sweden's best performance at a European Championships came in 1992 when they were hosts for Euro 92. Playing in the same group as Denmark, France & England, Denmark went on to win the tournament, but Sweden did beat them in the group stages, Sweden were knocked out at the semi-finals stage, where they were beaten by Germany 3-2.
