After a 12-month delay due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Uefa-run European Football Championship - or Euros in its abbreviated form - will shortly get underway.

Split around the continent, the best European teams will battle it out to dethrone 2016 champions, and first-time winners, Portugal.

Telegraph Sport rounds up the key dates, teams will be taking part and the latest winner odds.

What date does the tournament start?

Postponed a year due to coronavirus, the European Championship will take place between Friday, June 11 and Sunday, July 11 2021.

The opening game will be Turkey vs Italy in Group A. The knockout stages begin on June 26, with the final at Wembley on July 22.

Where is the tournament taking place?

Originally to be played at 13 venues across 13 countries, two hosts were later removed: Brussels in December 2017 due to delays with the building of the Eurostadium, and Dublin in April 2021 as there was no guarantee for spectators to attend. Spain also changed their host city from Bilbao to Seville to allow an audience at matches.
