If you are looking to score some UEFA European Championship tickets, you could consider making use of the UEFA ticketing portal; at least that’s one option for the finals of the tournament, but if you do so, you should be aware of the chances of success while taking this route.
You will be joining millions of other football fans in a lottery-style system that takes place before you even know which two teams might be playing in a particular game, which is a little absurd, to say the least. Other subsequent ticket releases via UEFA’s website will see similarly high levels of interest, resulting in the vast majority of those applying for tickets leaving empty-handed.
An alternative option, and one that guarantees success, is purchasing your tickets via SeatPick.

Belgium vs Czech Republic UEFA Euros Tournament Record
Belgium’s form in the UEFA European Championship has been something of a hit-and-miss story. With periods of success at both ends, with a very poor period for much of the competition’s history.
In 1972, Belgium qualified for their first finals tournament but were beaten in the Semi-Finals of the four-team tournament, which they also hosted, with West Germany forward Gerd Muller scoring twice in a 2-1 win.
At Euro 1980, Belgium topped a group that included Italy, Spain, and England before they once again lost out to West Germany, this time in the final in Rome.
Over the course of the next 36 years, Belgium failed to qualify for six tournaments and were eliminated in the group stage of the other two.
By Euro 2016, Belgium had assembled a very strong squad full of top talents plying their respective trades in the best leagues of Europe. Marc Wilmot's side performed well to get through their group and past Hungary in the Round of 16 before they stumbled in the Quarter-Finals, seeing a lead vanish during a surprise loss to Wales.
Euro 2020 was a similar story, with three wins secured from their group stage phase before a narrow win over Portugal got them into the last eight again, only for eventual winners Italy to triumph.
The Czech Republic have impressed on the whole in the UEFA European Championship, qualifying on the first occasion as an independent nation in 1996. At the finals in England, star players such as Pavel Nedved, Karel Pobrosky, and Patrik Berger excelled and beat France in the Semi-Finals to set up a final with Germany.
Berger, who would go on to sign for Liverpool after the finals, put the Czech Republic ahead at Wembley Stadium before substitute Oliver Bierhof scored twice to secure the title for Berti Vogts’ Germany.
Euro 2004 saw the Czech Republic impress again, reaching the Semi-Finals in Portugal before suffering a surprise defeat to Greece, who would go on to win the tournament in something of a shock triumph.
At Euro 2012 and Euro 2020, they reached the Quarter-Finals before being beaten by Portugal and Denmark, respectively.
Belgium vs Czech Republic Head-to-Head
These two nations have never previously met in the UEFA European Championship, and their only previous competitive matches have come in the qualifying for FIFA World Cup finals.
Their first clashes came ahead of the 2002 World Cup and saw Belgium win both games by a single goal in the play-offs.
They met again in the lead-up to the 2022 finals, and the first encounter ended in a 1-1 draw in the Czech Republic before goals from Romelu Lukaku, Eden Hazard, and Alexis Saeleaekers gave Belgium a 3-0 win in Brussels.
