Pots for UEFA Draw. Reminder that Russia qualify as hosts and Gibraltar are not members of FIFA and won't participate.

why is it that France, England, Italy, etc. are mandatory into a 6 team pot?

Not necessarily a 6-team pot (they are in different pots), but they must be drawn into a group with 6 teams (Not Group H/I). Long story short, UEFA want their most recognizable teams playing 10 total games, and not 8. Purely about commercial (money) reasons.

Money is my guess. More games = more $$$

Such crap. 5 team groups have a harder time getting the playoff spots. Oh well, sucks for wales.
ETA - nevermind. Great draw for wales.

Have to look at stats, but not sure this is inherently true. Remember, that the matches against teams that finish 6th in their group are not considered for the playoffs.

Portugal and Germany both with good draws.

Solid draw for Wales...

Group D. Like the draw for Ireland
Posted on 7/25/15 at 11:59 am to 417longhorn
England in the group with Scotland. Belgium should coast. Italy and Spain in the same group.

Group a looks tough.
Posted on 7/25/15 at 11:59 am to BraveTiger225
Netherlands, France, Sweden all in group A.
