Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox international football competition The 2024–25 UEFA Nations League will be the fourth season of the UEFA Nations League, an international association football competition involving the men's national teams of the member associations of UEFA. The competition will be held from September to November 2024 (league phase), March 2025 (League A quarter-finals and promotion/relegation play-offs), and June 2025 (Nations League Finals).

Spain are the defending champions, having won the 2023 finals.

Format

The UEFA national teams will be divided into four leagues, with Leagues A, B, and C featuring 16 teams each, divided into four groups of four teams. League D will feature 6 teams divided into two groups of three teams. The teams are allocated to leagues based on the 2022–23 UEFA Nations League overall ranking. Each team will play six matches within their group, except for teams in League D which will play four, using the home-and-away round-robin format on double matchdays in the FIFA International Match Calendar.

On 25 January 2023, the UEFA Executive Committee confirmed a modified format for the Nations League following the league phase. In the top division, League A, the group winners and runners-up will advance to a new quarter-final round, played home-and-away over two legs in March 2025. The winners will qualify for the Nations League Finals, retaining its previous format, which is played in a knockout format, consisting of the semi-finals, third place play-off, and final. The semi-final pairings, along with the administrative home teams for the third place play-off and final, are determined using a draw. The host country will be selected among the four qualified teams by the UEFA Executive Committee, with the winners of the final crowned as the Nations League champions.

Teams will also compete for promotion and relegation to a higher or lower league. The group winners in Leagues B, C, and D are promoted, while the last-placed teams of each group in Leagues A and B are relegated. As League C has four groups while League D has only two, the two worst-ranked League C teams will automatically be relegated (a change from the previous editions, which featured relegation play-outs between the fourth-placed teams of League C). As part of the format change, promotion/relegation play-offs will also be introduced, with the third-placed teams of League A facing the runners-up of League B, the third-placed teams of League B facing the runners-up of League C, and the two best-ranked fourth-placed teams of League C facing the runners-up of League D. The matches will again be played home-and-away over two legs in March 2025, with the winners going to the higher league and the losers entering the lower league.

In all two-legged ties, the higher-ranked team hosts the second leg. The team that scores more goals on aggregate is the winner. If the aggregate score is level, extra time is played (the away goals rule is not applied). If the score remains level after extra time, a penalty shoot-out is used to decide the winner.

Tiebreakers for group ranking

If two or more teams in the same group are equal on points on completion of the league phase, the following tie-breaking criteria are applied:

1. Higher number of points obtained in the matches played among the teams in question;
2. Superior goal difference in matches played among the teams in question;
3. Higher number of goals scored in the matches played among the teams in question;
4. If, after having applied criteria 1 to 3, teams still have an equal ranking, criteria 1 to 3 are reapplied exclusively to the matches between the teams in question to determine their final rankings.Шаблон:Efn If this procedure does not lead to a decision, criteria 5 to 11 apply;
5. Superior goal difference in all group matches;
6. Higher number of goals scored in all group matches;
7. Higher number of away goals scored in all group matches;
8. Higher number of wins in all group matches;
9. Higher number of away wins in all group matches;
10. Lower disciplinary points total in all group matches (1 point for a single yellow card, 3 points for a red card due to two yellow cards, 3 points for a direct red card, 4 points for a yellow card followed by a direct red card).
11. Position in the 2024–25 UEFA Nations League access list.

Notes Шаблон:Notelist

2026 FIFA World Cup qualification

The 2024–25 UEFA Nations League will be partially linked with European qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The twelve qualifying group runners-up and the four best-ranked Nations League group winners who are not qualifying group winners or runners-up will be drawn into four play-off paths of single-leg semi-finals and single-leg finals to determine the last four UEFA teams to qualify for the World Cup.

All 54 UEFA national teams were able to submit an entry for the competition, except Russia due to their country's invasion of Ukraine. The teams which finished bottom of their group in Leagues A and B, as well as the losers from the League C relegation play-outs, from the 2022–23 season will move down a league, while the group winners of Leagues B, C and D will move up. The remaining teams will stay in their respective leagues.

In an interview with the Polish website meczyki.pl, UEFA vice-president Zbigniew Boniek said that all ten teams from CONMEBOL, South America's football federation, could join the UEFA Nations League from the 2024–25 edition of the competition. The plans, which would act as a response to FIFA's biennial World Cup plans, were intended as part of enhanced cooperation between the two organisations following the signing of a memorandum of understanding and the opening of a joint office in London. However, such an expansion was made unlikely after CONMEBOL submitted a request to FIFA to maintain the round-robin qualification format for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. On 25 January 2023, the UEFA Executive Committee confirmed the format for the 2024–25 UEFA Nations League, with no South American teams to be added.

Teams below are ordered within their league by the 2022–23 UEFA Nations League overall ranking. UEFA confirmed allocation of teams to each league, and the seeding pots, on 2 December 2023.
