The UEFA Euro 2024 tournament is imminent, with a calendar month's worth of men's international football about to commence. That's 51 matches, if you're keeping count.

Starting this Friday (June 14) in Germany, Euro 2024 will bring 24 national sides together, including reigning champions Italy and European Championship finals debutants Georgia.

Hosts Germany will open the group stages when they face Scotland on Friday night, while Gareth Southgate's England side have their first match on Sunday (June 16) against Serbia. The entire tournament will be broadcast on free-to-air television in the UK, with the rights shared between the BBC and ITV.

Here's how the schedules for each broadcaster are looking throughout the group stages – including where you can watch England and Scotland's group games.
