Qualified: Serbia, Spain, Switzerland, France, Belgium, Denmark, Netherlands, Croatia, England, Germany.

Seeded in play-offs: Portugal, Scotland, Italy, Russia, Sweden, Wales.

Unseeded in play-offs: Turkey, Poland, North Macedonia, Ukraine, Austria, Czechia.

Despite them having won away to Germany in these qualifiers (!), everyone's gonna want North Macedonia out of those.

But they're all much of a muchness. Turkey away would've been tough - but Turkey at home really isn't. What the Czechs do at the Euros, they never do at the WC.

Austria looked great v Italy at the Euros but haven't really since. Poland are very decent but invariably flatter to deceive. And Ukraine are crap.

None of those opponents should hold any real fears for Scotland or Wales - except maybe the Czechs.

And more broadly:

- England one of the best sides in the world
- Scotland beat the European semi-finalists and improving beyond imagination
- Wales with a chance to reach their third major tournament in 4 attempts after reaching none since 1958
- NI hold the European Champions

I don't think there's been another time in my life when the home nations were all this good.

Really really remarkable stuff. The dinosaurs, the "we don't have anything to learn from Johnny Foreigner" yeomen, have suddenly all caught up! 👏👏👏
