Who could England face in Nations League quarter-finals?

Nations League quarter-finals, semi-finals and final format explained, with draw for last eight in November after groups decided; England have progressed to knockouts but can win group with victory over Spain in Madrid on Sunday

England have sealed their place in the Nations League quarter-finals after beating Croatia at Wembley - but who will they play in the last eight in March?

England are currently second in Nations League Group A3 behind Spain, trailing the world champions by three points.

Thomas Tuchel's side lost to Spain at Wembley at the start of this campaign and have their final match of the group stage in Madrid on Sunday.

Both sides are assured of a quarter-final place but a win for England will mean they finish top of the group.

That matters as the winners of the Nations League tier A groups are seeded for the quarter-final draw. They will play teams which have finished runners-up in other groups. They will also play the second leg of their quarter-final at home.

If England draw or lose against Spain, they will finish second and face a group winner in March.
