How the Three Lions have fared against their Euro 2016 rivals

Roy Hodgson will be one of 24 international managers waiting with anticipation on who his team will meet at Euro 2016 ahead of Saturday's draw in Paris.

Thanks to their 100 per cent record in qualifying for the Finals, England are one of the top seeds and will be in pot one when the ceremony begins.

As such, they cannot be drawn against any of the other four teams in pot one, or hosts France - who have already been placed in position one in Group A meaning they will play in the opening game of the tournament on Friday 10 June 2016.

However, England could line up against any of the other 18 countries who will be heading to the main event next summer - including potentially one of Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland or Wales.

Only one team from each of the pots [listed below] can be drawn in each group. For a full guide to the draw process, click here. 

In the Three Lions' 143-year history they have faced all the other nations competing in France on at least two occasions. Russia (since the break-up of USSR in 1991) and Iceland are the sides they have met only twice, while England have met the Welsh a whopping 101 times.

Of the five other top seeds, Portugal are the only team England have not played since Hodgson took charge in 2012. The last meeting with the Portuguese was at the 2006 World Cup, when the Three Lions were eliminated on penalties.

The Henri Delaunay trophy

For England's most recent games, in November, they travelled to Spain to take on the current European Championship holders, Spain, but went down 2-0 in Alicante. They returned to London four days later where they played the French on an emotional night at Wembley and won 2-0.

But how have England's fared against all the sides aiming to lift the Henri Delaunay trophy at the Stade de France on Sunday 10 July next summer?  

Here we take a brief look at the other 23 countries at Euro 2016 and their records against the Three Lions.
