Permutations: The league stage of the Uefa’s Women’s World Cup qualifiers runs until 9 June.
Four direct qualification spots for the 2027 World Cup in Brazil will be decided by then while 32 slots in the playoffs (drawn on 18 June) are also up for grabs. Teams are also competing for promotion and relegation ahead of the next edition of the Nations League.
England will qualify as group winners if they avoid defeat by Spain today while Spain will be confirmed in the playoffs if they do not beat England.
Should Spain beat England today, the two teams will both be on 12 points. From there, qualification will be based on goal difference.
Iceland and Ukraine make up the other two teams in the group. Both are confirmed in the playoffs and the former will be safe from relegation if they avoid defeat by the latter.
