After coming so close last time out, they are one of the favourites for the competition.

England find themselves in pot one and will therefore avoid the likes of Germany, France, Portugal, Spain and Belgium.

But while they will not come up against the majority of the big guns, they could still end up in a nightmare group because seedings are based on qualification.

Italy, who England beat home and away in their qualifying group, are down in pot four even though they won the last Euros against on penalties against the Three Lions.

Meanwhile, Denmark are in pot two as well as the likes of Hungary, Austria, Turkey.

Netherlands, winners in 1988, find themselves in pot three.

England's most difficult draw could therefore see them in the same group as Denmark, Netherlands, Italy.
