They are playing Italy, could get a hammering which if they lost by 4 or more would put us above them? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would need to be some hammering though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Remember that if we lose to Denmark our GD goes down by at least 1 and if others are winning games their GD is going up by at least 1... so in scenarios where others are reaching 14pts there is actually no real GD buffer even though it looks like it currently. Norway are home to Latvia then away to Netherlands, and you'd clearly expect them to get 3pts tomorrow in Oslo tomorrow... question is whether they'd manage a draw in Rotterdam (now behind closed doors after Dutch government reimposed restrictions). If not: do they concede more to Dutch than put past Latvia. Of course it's also quite conceivable in this scenario that Turkey beat Gibraltar and Montenegro and finish 2nd on 15pts. Czech Republic you'd expect to hump Estonia at home but Wales are in behind with a game-in-hand and should beat Belarus at home even if couldn't then repeat it against Belgium. Poland aren't going to struggle for 3pts from Andorra and Hungary; should get 4 or 6. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 How do the play-offs work? If only 3 teams get to the World Cup, is it two games again, a semi-final then a final? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can get that far, I'm sure we'll all have a semi before the final. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A or B will play C or D? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now it would be Wales and Austria, unseeded, but Welsh might yet finish above Czechs (who are next in line from Nations League)... in which case it would be Czech Republic and Austria. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
