The first two teams from each group will qualify directly for UEFA 2024 finals. 

“An interesting group, I think Serbia is the favourite. The teams are approximately equal in strength. It will probably be more emotional to play against my home country, I feel good to be returning to Serbia. We are a young team and they are the favourites. We mustn’t give up,” commented the national coach of the Bulgarian national team Mladen Krstajić for BNT after the draw.
