This time around, they are in an open-looking Group F alongside Portugal, Czech Republic and Georgia.
They begin their campaign against Georgia, who are making their major tournament debut in Germany after winning their play-off in March thanks to a decent showing in the Nations League.
As Belgium and Ukraine can attest, taking opponents of their stature lightly is a bad idea.
