Hard to beat: Reigning champions Spain will fancy their chances of ruling the world again

That would be a kick in the proverbial for them. Speaking of which, can England be drawn into a group of death?

They sure can. France just missed out on being top seeds (to Greece!) and a worst case scenario could see them, England, Republic of Ireland, Scotland, Finland and Wales in one group.

Even if England avoid France, the threat of Russia, Sweden and Denmark remains.

Wow, that is a lot of banana skins. Is there any chance of a group that is a tiny bit easier?

Whether it’s Harry Redknapp, Roy Hodgson, Stuart Pearce or your mate Dave from the Red Lion leading the Three Lions next campaign, they will have no excuses if they fail to qualify from a possible group of Slovakia, Belarus, Albania, Faroe Islands and San Marino.

So how do you book your ticket to Brazil?

Teams in each group will play each other home and away in a round robin format, with the table-toppers sealing a spot in the final tournament.
