KEYS KEYS
Happy with that, fans of the national team?
From the top, the Republic of Ireland will view the clashes with Serbia as key to securing a top two result.
Northern Ireland has a great job, there are no real minnows for Ian Baraclough’s team.
Wales should be optimistic, but they will definitely need all their great players for the games against the Czech Republic and Belgium.
Scotland … well, it’s tough, I can’t deny it. Austria, Denmark and Israel could cause problems.
And England … should be in their game against Poland and Hungary, who have attacking talents at their disposal, but realistically the Three Lions should win the group.
