Yet the Play-off semis and final aren’t til March 2020. 

So the Euro 2020 draw (Dec 2019) will contain the likes of balls stating ie. ‘Scotland/Finland’, ‘Serbia/Norway’ or whatever 😕

It's being played in Portugal.

They were the first to seal their qualification for the NL finals, so I assume that is why they have been awarded it.

And this will be in March 2020 instead of 2019 as I first thought

Where does this we’re guaranteed a home tie if we win tomorrow come from?

The Nations League finals are played in June 2019, it's the playoffs for Euro 2020 that are in March 2020.

We'll get a home tie for a semi if we beat Israel by virtue of being one of the best 2 teams from the 4 group winners in League C. Should we win we'll finish on 9 points and this would mean that we would be ahead of Serbia (8 points) and Finland (6 points). The other group it'll be either Norway or Bulgaria as group winners, if Bulgaria win the group the max points they would have would be 7 and Norway 9. We would therefore definitely be one of the 2 best group winners and probably the best by goal difference.

Norway and Bulgaria play their last games tonight so we'll know the group winners. If it's Norway and they're on 9 points then it would come down to GD to split who is the best and Norway currently have a +2 GD (assuming their goals against the bottom team are discounted) and we currently have a +5 GD so if we were to win then they would have to beat Cyprus away by 4 or more goals.

Portugal, Italy and Poland all expressed their interest in hosting the finals, so whoever won that group was going to get it.
