Scotland are safely through to Euro 2024 after finishing second in qualifying Group A.<\/p>\n

Steve Clarke\u2019s side were beaten only once across their campaign and secured a famous victory over Spain to help book their place at next summer\u2019s tournament.<\/p>\n

Their 17-point tally sees them go into Pot 3 for the draw for the Euros.<\/p>\n

They will not face any of the other five nations in that pot in the group stages of the competition.<\/p>\n

With three play-off qualifiers still to be confirmed, the pots look like this:<\/p>\n

Pot 1<\/strong>: Germany (hosts), Portugal, France, Spain, Belgium, England<\/p>\n

Pot 2<\/strong>: Hungary, Turkey, Romania, Denmark, Albania, Austria<\/p>\n

Pot 3<\/strong>: Netherlands, Scotland, Croatia, Slovenia, Slovakia, Czech Republic<\/p>\n

Pot 4<\/strong>: Italy, Serbia, Switzerland, Play-off winner A, Play-off winner B, Play-off winner C<\/p>\n

So what is the toughest possible draw for Scotland?<\/p>\n

While the pots are based on qualifying form, and thus a useful gauge of team quality, we will go by Fifa\u2019s world rankings to determine the best and worst case scenarios for Clarke and his team.<\/p>\n

The toughest possible draw for Scotland (current world ranking 34th) would be: France (2nd), Denmark (19th), Italy (9th).<\/strong><\/p>\n

On paper, the easiest draw would be: Germany (16th), Albania (59th)<\/strong>, Kazakhstan* (98th).<\/strong><\/p>\n

*Kazakhstan are <\/em>part of qualifying play-off Path C<\/em><\/p>\n

When is Euro 2024?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 17th edition of the men\u2019s Euros will be held in Germany between 14 June and 14 July.<\/p>\n

Which cities are hosting fixtures?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Berlin<\/p>\n

Munich<\/p>\n

Hamburg<\/p>\n

Dusseldorf<\/p>\n

Frankfurt<\/p>\n

Cologne<\/p>\n

Stuttgart<\/p>\n

Gelsenkirchen<\/p>\n

Leipzig<\/p>\n

Dortmund<\/p>\n
