Briefly

Euro 2025's Group A is highly competitive with Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, and Finland. Iceland leads the group in ranking but faces a strong Norway team. Finland enters as the underdog after barely qualifying and struggling in previous tournaments. Iceland had a strong qualifying performance but is currently without a win in recent matches. Finland possesses a solid defense yet needs to overcome a lack of offensive threats, putting their tournament hopes into question as they face formidable opponents on Swiss soil, where Switzerland seeks to make an impression as hosts.
Iceland are the highest ranked team in Group A, sitting 14th in the world, but two-time winners Norway have pedigree in the competition.
Finland will be classed as an underdog in Switzerland, with a solid defence but lacking a key threat up front.
Switzerland will be keen to impress on home soil, similar to how England and the Netherlands did in previous tournaments.
Iceland enjoyed a superb qualifying campaign, finishing in the group behind Germany, yet are winless in their last 10 matches.
