England ensured they will be among the top seeds for next summer’s European Championships after wrapping up their qualifying campaign with a 4-0 win over Kosovo on Sunday.

Bulgaria’s surprise win over the Czech Republic did nothing to alter the qualifying picture, but looks likely to cost the Czechs in terms of seeding, as they drop from pot two to pot three for the November 30 draw. Kosovo will play North Macedonia in their playoff semi-final.

Ukraine needed a 93rd minute equaliser to earn a 2-2 draw away to Serbia on Sunday and secure the point they needed to be sure of a pot one seeding, having already won the group.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s 99th international goal helped book Portugal’s spot at the finals with a 2-0 win over Luxembourg, meaning Serbia will have to face a playoff. However, the Portuguese will be down in pot three for the draw.

France sealed top spot with a 2-0 victory over Albania on Sunday, but need both Germany and the Netherlands to slip up in their final game if they are to be a number one seed.

Turkey are safely through in second, while Iceland, as the only Nations League A team not to qualify automatically for Euro 2020, are sure of a path A playoff spot.

Italy are also through as group winners and guaranteed to be in pot one, as the other team to have won all of their games. Finland have qualified for their first major tournament but defeat to Greece in their final game means they will be in pot four.

Bosnia and Herzegovina’s Nations League success means they are guaranteed a home playoff in path B, against Northern Ireland.

Euro 2020 play-offs as they stand

The 16 teams who won their Uefa Nations League groups are guaranteed a Euro 2020 play-off spot if they fail to qualify directly, with each League forming a separate play-off path. As such, the play-off teams will be confirmed once the group-stage qualifiers are complete.

  • Path A: Iceland vs Hungary/Romania & Bulgaria/Israel vs Israel/Hungary
  • Path B: Bosnia and Herzegovina vs Northern Ireland & Slovakia vs Republic of Ireland
  • Path C: Scotland vs Bulgaria/Israel/Romania/Hungary & Norway vs Serbia
  • Path D: Georgia vs Belarus & North Macedonia vs Kosovo

Euro 2020 qualifying groups correct as of November 17, 2019.
