    Default UEFA Euro 2016 Qualifying Thread

    The Official UEFA Euro 2016 Qualifying Thread.



    The draw is on sunday in Nice, France. This time there are 24 teams, not the usual 16 teams.

    Pot 1: Spain, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, England, Greece, Portugal, Russia, Bosnia and Herzegovina

    Pot 2: Ukraine, Croatia, Sweden, Denmark, Switzerland, Belgium, Czech Republic, Hungary, Republic of Ireland

    Pot 3: Serbia, Turkey, Slovenia, Israel, Norway, Slovakia, Romania, Austria, Poland

    Pot 4: Montenegro, Armenia, Scotland, Finland, Latvia, Wales, Bulgaria, Estonia, Belarus

    Pot 5: Iceland, Northern Ireland, Albania, Lithuania, Moldova, Macedonia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Cyprus

    Pot 6: Luxembourg, Kazakhstan, Liechtenstein, Faroe Islands, Malta, Andorra, San Marino, Gibraltar


    - Groups A–H each contains one team from each of Pots 1–6, while Group I contains one team from each of Pots 1–5.

    - For television rights reasons, England, Germany, Italy, Spain and the Netherlands shall be drawn into groups of 6 teams.

    - For political reasons, Azerbaijan and Armenia (due to disputed status of Nagorno-Karabakh), as well as Spain and Gibraltar (due to disputed status of Gibraltar) shall not be drawn in the same group. Unlike the previous UEFA qualifying tournament, Russia and Georgia have agreed to play each other if they are drawn together.

    - France (Coeff: 30,992; Rank: 11) are partnered with the five-team group, which enable the 2016 tournament hosts to play friendlies against these countries on their 'spare' dates. These friendlies do not count in the qualifying group standings.

    last time i watched macedonia it was 2006 against england when we lost 0-1
    we had meh opponents since then and i didnt feel like going
    hopefully we get germany or spain

    best case scenario: spain/germany, belgium/sweden, turkey/poland, wales/montenegro, gibraltar

    worst case scenario: greece/russia, hungary, israel, estonia, kazakhstan..
    boring matches plus we will still end up 4th

    You know that 3rd place is enough for Play-offs?

    It's a massive chance for these small nations to qualify.

    I think Portugal would be the best team for you lot.

    Get a chance to see Ronaldo live + a realistic chance to get a result. Portugal are sh*te in Qualifying groups.

    nice. i don't think he'll reach the first team of barca regularly but he has the potential to be a pretty good player. maybe not on the level pandev was but similar.

    Macedonia surprised Croatia once in Skopje with a 2-1 win. I don't doubt they can make a little noise and surprise every team in their group.

    Germany is the biggest threat to all teams in the Euro2016.

    we could get good result against most semi-good european nations at home.. but away we could easily lose to the worst european countries..

    and why would i wanna see CR live when i dont like him.. i wanna see iniesta, deulofeu, gotze, kroos, ibra and such
