    Right the top seeds go into each group in order - so the first team out will be in Group B, then Group C etc

    It looks better if you click on the link to the actual page, obviously. I'm told that this will fill in - as if by magic - during or just after the draw.

    You can start booking your days off work already...

    From pot 1, I'd like Russia or Poland. You can't get another European team then, so for me Iran or Tunisia from pot 3. Panama would be ideal in pot 4.

    But we’ve had plenty of good groups before and found it difficult.
