Where to Watch Czechia vs England in Euro U21?

England Under-21s are set to take on the Czech Republic Under-21s in their opening match of the 2025 Euro U21 tournament at the DAC Arena on Thursday. England, the reigning U21 European champions, will be keen to begin their title defense on a positive note. Besides England and the Czech Republic, Germany and Slovenia have been pooled in Group B. The top two teams from each group will advance to the knockout stage.

England won the 2023 tournament by winning all six of their matches without conceding a goal. They overcame Spain in the final with a 1-0 victory to end their 39-year drought for the European championship. The Young Lions, led by Lee Carsley, who just inked a contract extension with the U21 national team, have arrived in Slovenia with high hopes of winning the Euros again and becoming the first team to retain the title since Spain held the trophy from 2011 to 2013.

The England U21 team earned qualification as the group topper, securing 25 points with 41 goals. Three months ago, they defeated Portugal 4-2 in a friendly match, putting an end to a three-match losing streak.

Czechia U21s managed to qualify for the European finals five times in the last six appearances in the qualifying campaign. They confirmed their place by defeating Belgium 2-0 in the playoffs. Meanwhile, England is playing their tenth consecutive Under-21 Euros. Czechia head coach Jan Suchoparek will be hoping that his team gets off to a strong start in the group stage this time. In their last eight Euro appearances, they could have won the opening game just once, beating Ukraine in 2011. Czechia U21s haven't made it to the knockout stages since 2011.

Adam Karabec, a midfielder for the Czech Republic who plays club football for Hamburger SV in Germany, will make history as the first player to represent the country at three consecutive Under-21 European Championships. Karabec will probably play in an advanced midfield position alongside Krystof Danek, who is playing in his second U21 Euros, while Daniel Fila and Vaclav Sejk will spearhead the forward line.

Promising midfielder Jobe Bellingham, who recently made a high-profile move from Sunderland to Borussia Dortmund and is set to play for the German team in the FIFA Club World Cup, will not be available for the Euro U21. Both Tino Livramento and Samuel Iling-Junior may be used as wing-backs, while Archie Grey, Elliot Anderson, Hayden Hackney, Alex Scott, and Jack Hinshelwood will now compete for a starting position in center-midfield.
