Tickets for key qualifiers and major finals sell out in an instant though some fans do also attempt to secure these via UEFA and FIFA’s official ticketing portal, usually without success.
Accessing finals tickets for the UEFA European Championships is notoriously tricky via UEFA; that’s down to a number of factors. Firstly, millions of fans enter the random lottery-style ballot that they run, making it very hard to succeed down this path.
Secondly, the first tranche of tickets released in this manner actually happens before the draw, and that means supporters are applying for specific games, knowing only the date and location of a match, and not the two teams playing, which is more than just a little ludicrous.
Thirdly, in the subsequent ticket releases that occur after the draw is made, the number of entrants is astronomical, and your chances of success go from slim to none. Fortunately, SeatPick offers fans an alternative.
We work with hundreds of the most trusted ticket reseller sites, and that gives our users access to a huge variety of tickets for every international fixture, including England vs Slovenia.

England vs Slovenia UEFA Euros Tournament Record
With some notable exceptions, England have struggled to make a consistent impact in the UEFA European Championships. They first qualified for the finals in 1968 under the great Sir Alf Ramsey and finished in third place, albeit out of four teams.
They failed to make it to the finals in both 1972 and 1976, and in 1980, they failed to get out of their group. That fate awaited them at both the 1988 and 1992 finals, where both Sir Bobby Robson and Graham Taylor struggled to achieve the level of success needed to get to the knockout phase.
Terry Venables did manage to bring a whole new level of quality to England’s performances in the tournament for Euro 96, which was hosted in the country.
They started that memorable campaign with a poor display in a 1-1 draw with Switzerland and then captured the mood of the nation by beating both Scotland and the Netherlands with aplomb.
That earned the Three Lions a shot at the Quarter-Finals, which saw England secure a very rare penalty shoot-out win over Spain. Next up was Germany at Wembley Stadium in the Semi-Finals.
The game started well, with Alan Shearer scoring after just three minutes before Stefan Kuntz leveled soon after. The game went to penalties, and famously Gareth Southgate, who would go on to become national team coach, saw his effort saved to give Germany safe passage to the final.
Quarter-Final exits came in 2004 and 2012, and at Euro 2016, England suffered the humiliation of being beaten by minnows Iceland in the Round of 16, but at the delayed Euro 2020 finals, they came back with a bang.
Gareth Southgate’s side breezed through the group phase and then defeated Germany, Ukraine, and Denmark to set up a final with Roberto Mancini’s Italy. Once again, as with the key match in 1996, England took an early lead, this time through Manchester United full-back Luke Shaw, only for Leonardo Bonucci to level midway through the second half.
The game went down to penalties, and England were again found wanting, with Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, and Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka all failing to convert their spot-kicks to hand Italy the crown.
Slovenia have only qualified for the UEFA European Championships on one occasion, and that came at Euro 2000, where they secured draws with both the Former Republic of Yugoslavia and Norway but lost to Spain, meaning they finished bottom of their group.
England vs Slovenia Head-to-Head
England and Slovenia have met in two previous UEFA European Championship matches and those games came in the qualifying campaign for the Euro 2016 finals.
Two goals from Danny Welbeck and another from Wayne Rooney gave Roy Hodgson’s side a 3-1 win at Wembley Stadium.
The return game resulted in a 3-2 win for England in Ljubljana, with Jack Wilshere scoring twice and Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney netting the winner.
