The Lionesses' roaring victory in 2022 makes them defending champions this year

The lionesses have reached the Euros final three times before, with twice in runners up position before their 2022 win being the first time they ever took home the title.

Spain on the other hand have never reached the final game of the Euros.

However, their form is looking pretty spectacular at the moment, as after never having reached a major women's final until 2023, they're now looking to lift their third trophy after winning the World Cup and Nations League.

And who did Spain beat in the 2023 World Cup final? None other than England!

2. What's the capacity of the stadium it's being held in?

The final will take place in St Jakob-Park in the Swiss city of Basel.

It's the largest football stadium in the country and home to FC Basel.

It has a capacity of 34,250, and previous games there this tournamanet have set records for attendance at Women's Euros matches.

Speaking of records, many have been smashed to pieces at this year's Euros.

The goal tally is at 104, already beating the 2022 record of 95 with the final still left to play.

4. How many Euros finals have gone to penalties?

If the two sides draw through the first 90 minutes and then 30 minutes of extra time, the final will go to penalties.

The only time the final has ever been decided by pens was at the first one ever, when Sweden beat England in 1984.

However, England turned the tables this year by beating Sweden on penalties in the quarter finals.

5. What kit will the teams be wearing in the final?

Spain will be wearing red in the 2025 Euros final

England have been designated as the home team for the final, meaning they get to wear their white home kit.

Given there aren't any colour clashes, Spain should be wearing their red home kit for the final match.

You can watch the Euro 2025 final live from 16:00 on Sunday 27 July on ITV1, BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
