In the EHF Euro Cup, the teams that already automatically qualified for the next European Men's Handball Championship play against each other in a four team group. The group winners win the EHF Euro Cup. The tournament is played at the same time as the qualifying process for the European Championships. The inaugural edition of the men's tournament was in 2020.[2]

Qualification

Four teams participate in this competition. Qualification depends on how many hosts/co-host there are. For example, if there are three co-hosts, then only the European Men's Handball Championship champions will take part.
