Jaysus, we’re a bawhair from Pot 2

 

Even in Pot 3, could have Luxembourg, Andorra and San Marino making up half the group...

Are Luxembourg that decent to be only one seeding below Scotland?!

They’ve improved a lot recently. Wins in Azerbaijan and Montenegro and at home to Cyprus this autumn alone. None of those teams are any great shakes but they’re all a class above the genuine minnow tier that we’d normally associate Luxembourg as being a member of.

Presumably Ireland, Norway, and Romania are at a disadvantage by only having two games next month. You'd be surprised if Iceland did well against Denmark and England. Which leaves us, Slovakia, and Norn Iron with three matches to pick up points.. Slovakia are playing us and the Norn, giving them a potential advantage, but they also just lost at home to Israel.

Seems likely that winning our games would get us into Pot 2. Not something I'd have considered remotely possible a week ago, but if we can beat the Serbs, anything's possible.
