Home to French side AS Saint Etienne, the Stade Geoffroy-Guichard is the oldest stadium that will be used in this summer’s competition. Built in 1931, the stadium has hosted some memorable matches including the 1998 World Cup pre quarter final between England and Argentina.
The stadium underwent renovation in 1956 when the tracks surrounding the pitch were removed and the stands were remodelled in a rectangular shape. It will be hosting three group stage matches and a round of 16 clash. Portugal take on Iceland in their first game of the tournament in this venue.
