Originally Gibraltar had been drawn in this group, but they were moved to group B due to Spain not being willing to play them because of the disputed status of Gibraltar.{{Cite web |date=10 October 2022 |title=UEFA rules prevent Spain v Gibraltar in Euro 2024 qualifiers |url=https://thediplomatinspain.com/en/2022/10/10/uefa-rules-prevent-spain-v-gibraltar-in-euro-2024-qualifiers/77964/ |access-date=September 17, 2024 |website=The Diplomat}}
The top two teams, Spain and Scotland, qualified directly for the final tournament. The participants of the qualifying play-offs were decided based on their performance in the 2022–23 UEFA Nations League.
