Only England have secured qualification so far, setting the stage for high drama in the upcoming week as other teams vie to join them.
Could the improbable occur? Germany, having never missed a World Cup, must avoid errors to clinch the top spot after their initial defeat to Slovakia. Julian Nagelsmann’s team currently edges Slovakia on goal difference and needs a win against Luxembourg on Friday, hoping that Northern Ireland—ensured a playoff spot by topping their Nations League group—can aid them against Slovakia on the same night. Germany’s final match against Slovakia in Leipzig on Monday could turn into a decisive encounter. Teams finishing second will enter the playoffs.
