The Pot seedings are based on the updated FIFA ranking,
Beneath are the members of each Pot
Pot One includes host nation Qatar, and the top seven ranked teams in the world, including England, Portugal, and France.
Pot Two includes powerhouses like the Netherlands and Germany, along with Uruguay and USA.
As usually done, this World Cup will follow a similar format with teams drawn into eight groups of four.
Hosts Qatar will be given position A1 in Group A from Pot 1, and the top seven ranked teams who have qualified are the other top seeds that will occupy groups B-H.
The draw will start with the teams in the top pot and work downwards, finishing with the bottom pot.

Teams from the same content will be kept apart – except for European countries, where a maximum of two can be in any one group.

Pot 2: Mexico, Netherlands, Denmark, Germany, Uruguay, Switzerland, USA, Croatia.
