The draw, which was made by tournament ambassador Victoria Sandell Svensson, split hosts Sweden and the seven teams that came through round 2 of qualifying into two groups of four.

Sweden were automatically placed in position 1 of Group A, and were joined by holders France, England and Norway. Spain, FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup holders, four-time EURO winners and runners-up for the last two years, face fellow former champions Poland as well as Portugal and Belgium in Group B.

The finals run from 5 to 18 May. Matches will be played at Malmö Idrottsplats in Malmö & Klostergårdens Idrottsplats in Lund, with Group A on 5, 8 and 11 May and Group B on 6, 9 and 12 May, with one game each day at both venues.

The top two in each section will progress to the semi-finals on 15 May, with the decider to follow in Malmö three days later.

The finals will also act as UEFA's qualifier for the 2024 U-17 Women's World Cup, with three European teams to earn places in the Dominican Republic for the tournament from 16 October to 3 November. The two beaten semi-finalists will play off on 18 May in Lund for the right to join the two finalists in the World Cup.
