The 2025 UEFA European Under-19 Championship qualification is a men's under-19 national football team competition that will determine the seven teams joining the automatically qualified hosts Romania in the 2025 UEFA European Under-19 Championship final tournament. Players born on or after 1 January 2006 are eligible to participate.

Contents

Russia was excluded from participating in the tournament due to the ongoing invasion of Ukraine.

Format

The qualifying competition will consist of the following two rounds:

Tiebreakers

In the qualifying and elite round, teams are ranked according to points (3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss), and if tied on points, the following tiebreaking criteria are applied, in the order given, to determine the rankings (Regulations Articles 14.01 and 14.02): [1]

  1. Points in head to head matches among tied teams
  2. Goal difference in head to head matches among tied teams
  3. Goals scored in head to head matches among tied teams
  4. If more than two teams are tied, and after applying all head-to-head criteria above, a subset of teams are still tied, all head-to-head criteria above are reapplied exclusively to this subset of teams
  5. Goal difference in all group matches
  6. Goals scored in all group matches
  7. Penalty shoot-out if only two teams have the same number of points, and they met in the last round of the group and are tied after applying all criteria above (not used if more than two teams have the same number of points, or if their rankings are not relevant for qualification for the next stage)
  8. Disciplinary points (red card = 3 points, yellow card = 1 point, expulsion for 2 yellow cards in one match = 3 points)
  9. UEFA coefficient ranking for the qualifying round draw

To determine the best third-placed team from the qualifying round, the results against the teams in fourth place are discarded. The following criteria are applied (Regulations Articles 15.01 and 15.02): [1]

  1. Points
  2. Goal difference
  3. Goals scored
  4. Disciplinary points (total 3 matches)
  5. UEFA coefficient ranking for the qualifying round draw
