  • England won the title in 2009 and have been runners-up three times but have not got past the group stage since 2013.
  • France have won five titles, finished runners-up five more times, and made the semi-finals for the last two seasons. They won all six of their qualifiers without conceding a goal, just like Spain last year before going on to lift the trophy.

  • Serbia only previously qualified in 2012.
  • Spain won their fifth title last season. They will aim to win the title for a third year in a row, previously done by Germany as they triumphed in the last two WU18 EURO tournaments in 2000 and 2001, and the rebranded WU19 EURO in 2002.
