About the FIFA World Cup Draw
Twenty-nine of the 32 participants for the upcoming World Cup have been determined, with the remaining three spots decided by a play-in round. The procedures approved by the Organising Committee for FIFA Competitions outline that the 29 already qualified teams will be organized into four “pots” based on the FIFA/Coca-Cola Men’s World Rankings released on March 31 following the conclusion of the international match window.
As the host nation, we know Qatar will take position A1 from Pot 1, meaning that any potential Group A teams will know at least one of their rivals from the start.
