    Euro 2020 qualification seedings

    These have now been confirmed after the Nations League groups finished tonight. We're in pot 3.

    Pot 1: Switzerland, Portugal, Netherlands, England, Belgium, France, Spain, Italy, Croatia, Poland
    Pot 2: Germany, Iceland, Bosnia, Ukraine, Denmark, Sweden, Russia, Austria, Wales, Czech Republic
    Pot 3: Slovakia, Turkey, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland, Norway, Serbia, Finland, Bulgaria, Israel
    Pot 4: Hungary, Romania, Greece, Albania, Montenegro, Cyprus, Estonia, Slovenia, Lithuania, Georgia
    Pot 5: Macedonia, Kosovo, Belarus, Luxembourg, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Moldova, Gibraltar, Faroe Islands
    Pot 6: Latvia, Liechtenstein, Andorra, Malta, San Marino

    There's a couple extra rules - the four finalists are all placed in a group of 5, and no more than two "host" countries (of which we are one) can be drawn in one group, to give a chance of all hosts qualifying. Could potentially be a route through for us directly if we could get our **** together.

    However, as per tradition I'm predicting the following groups:
    Belgium, Germany, Scotland, Greece, Kosovo, Latvia
    England, Austria, Finland, Estonia, Gibraltar

    Bring it on!

    We can't get both as they're both hosts, and there can't be more than two in a group.

    Belgium and Germany, on the other hand...

    Pray for:

    Italy, Wales, Cyprus, Gibraltar, Malta

    Italy are very wobbly right now and would be a great atmosphere at the matches. We would need to pick a hearts or hamilton player for the Wales game so we could crock Bale early on

    Wondering what % of similar such fans forums around Europe have a wish list for their own country's draw which includes Scotland in their pool.

    Finland and Israel are in our pot, I'd rather play them than Scotland.

    The play offs aren’t till after the groups and if we get through we won’t be in them. Likewise if any of the other three teams in league C get through the traditional route they will be replaced. We could end up playing Israel again.

    The play offs won't be required if we finish in the top two of the qualification group as we'll qualify automatically.

    We will. Groups stages start early next year. The nations league finals are June next year. In theory - we could qualify via the nations league and presumably then chillax in the group knowing we're already there.
    The play offs are in March 2020, after the groups have finished

    Yeah - spotted that. Was getting confused as I think England's semi / final is in June next year.

    The best placed team in their group which hasn't qualified through the normal qualification stage.

    The 4 finalists play off in 2 semis a third place playoff and a final. The winner of the final wins the nations league. All 4 matches in Portugal in June. The 4 finalists are in a group of 5 because the matches use up 2 of the qualifying match days so they cant fit all the games in if they are in a group of 6.

    There are 4 ‘semi finalists’ to win the nations league. These are all from league A. These games take place in June 2019, and it’s these 4 teams that will be in groups of 5 for the qualifiers (England Portugal Switzerland and Holland).

    Every other play off match will take place in early 2020 (March?) after the qualifiers have been played.
