The UEFA Executive Committee approved the procedure for the upcoming UEFA EURO 2024 qualifying draw, which will take place in Frankfurt on 9 October at 12:00 CET.

 

The qualifying draw procedure can be summarised as follows:

 

• Germany, the UEFA EURO 2024 host association team, qualifies automatically for the final tournament and is therefore not taking part in the qualifying draw.

• All Russian teams are currently suspended following the decision of the UEFA Executive Committee of 28 February 2022, which was further confirmed by the Court of Arbitration for Sport on 15 July 2022. Russia is therefore not included in the UEFA European Football Championship 2022-24 qualifying draw.

• 53 national associations will participate in the qualifying draw, which will allocate the participants to ten groups – seven groups of five teams and three groups of six teams.

• The ten group-winners and the ten group runners-up qualify for the final tournament. The remaining three places will be decided via the play-offs to be played in March 2024.

• The 53 participating teams are seeded according to the overall 2022/23 UEFA Nations League rankings and divided into seven pots.

Also worth to mention :BLR is allowed to compete but their home games will have to be played on neutral place (very likely outside the EU).

 

In the Nations League they played their 3 home games in Serbia, just like our return leg home match will be played next week as well in Bačka Topola (SRB) this time because of ban on issueing visas to belarussian delegation from our governance

 

+Belarus can not play against Ukraine

The play-offs in March 2024 will be from the Nations League like the previous ones?

Yes, the remaining three teams will be decided through the play-offs, featuring 12 teams selected based on their performance in the 2022/23 UEFA Nations League..

Right,  but the "draw conditions" are always more and more......

 

Other teams cannot be drawn into the same group:

Armenia / Azerbaijan
Gibraltar / Spain

Winter venue restrictions

  • Estonia
  • Faroe Islands
  • Finland
  • Iceland
  • Latvia
  • Lithuania
  • Norway

 

Excessive travel restrictions
A number of countries have been identified with excessive travel distance in relation to other countries (applicable both ways, 8 hours or above, based on direct flight times plus 90 minutes groundoperations).

In order to minimise the teams’ travel burden, a maximum of one such pair can be drawninto the same group.

 

The restrictions:

 

From /To: Kazakhstan

To/From: Andorra, England, Faroe Islands, France, Gibraltar, Iceland, Malta, Northern Ireland, Portugal, Republic of Ireland, Scotland, Spain, Wales

Finland is in Pot 2 while Ukraine in Pot 3.

 

Anyway, the Group of Death for Poland would be:

 

:POL :FRA :UKR :TUR and :SVK

 

Easiest group (almost impossible to happen):

 

:POL :FIN :ARM :FRO and :GIB

Slovakia is not going to be any threat to anybody, there is a reason why we are in pot 5. It is not just like someone somehow decided to put us there. Unfortunately, it is only really the real and sad reality, the real performance and quality of our current squad got us there, and it does not look it will change anytime soon.

 

We waited near 20 years since the independance for a player like Hamšík, he brought us to the World Cup Last 16, twice to the EURO, helped us to beat several powerhouses, in 2014/15 an incredible winning streak that catapulted us to a crazy top 15 world ranking status. After his retirement, we are back to the pre-Hamšík times, probably for another decades of painful waiting to celebrate another success to qualify somewhere. Right now it is just delusional to think we can beat a stronger nation. Hell, we can not beat the likes of KAZ, AZE or BLR ffs :p
