Ahead of the latest round of Euro 2024 qualifiers, Sports Mole looks at who could qualify and who could be eliminated from contention on matchday seven.

The international break returns this week, with the business end of qualifying for Euro 2024 now upon the continent's national sides.

Five teams can book their places on the plane to Germany on matchday seven, wrapping up their spot at next summer's tournament with three qualifying games to spare.

Scotland, Portugal, France, Belgium and Austria could all put themselves into that coveted position over the coming days, while others can also put themselves on the brink of reaching Germany.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of the permutations you need to know ahead of the upcoming round of Euro 2024 qualifiers.



GROUP A

    MATCHDAY SEVEN FIXTURES

    Already out of contention: Estonia

    PERMUTATIONS

  • Belgium will seal qualification if they beat Austria.

  • Austria will qualify if they beat Belgium.

    MATCHDAY SEVEN FIXTURES

    Hungary vs. Serbia (Saturday)
    Bulgaria vs. Lithuania (Saturday)

    Already qualified: None
    Already out of contention: None

    PERMUTATIONS

  • Bulgaria will be officially eliminated from contention if they do not beat Lithuania.
