Denmark, England, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Serbia, Slovakia, Spain, and Switzerland qualified in the first round by winning their groups. France, Greece, Portugal, and Slovenia qualified via the second round play-offs.

Format

Teams were drawn into eight groups of six teams and one group of five teams. The nine group winners qualified directly, while the best eight second-placed teams contested home and away play off matches for the remaining four places. In determining the best eight second placed teams, the results against teams finishing last in the six team groups were not counted for consistency between the five and six team groups.[1]

Seeding

After initially proposing to use a similar system to recent World Cup and European Championship qualification (based on results across the previous two European qualification cycles), the UEFA Executive Committee decided on 27 September 2007 at its meeting in Istanbul that seeding for the qualifiers would be based on FIFA World Rankings, in accordance with the FIFA World Cup regulations (which note that where teams are ranked on "performance" criteria, the FIFA World Rankings must be used).[2]

The FIFA World Ranking used for seeding was the most recent at the time of the preliminary draw, namely the November 2007 edition. Initially scheduled for 21 November, the release date of the ranking was moved to 23 November to include the final match days of Euro 2008 qualification.[3]

The countries that eventually qualified for the final tournament are emboldened in the table below.

Pot A	Pot B	Pot C	Pot D	Pot E	Pot F
Italy  Spain  Germany  Czech Republic  France  Portugal  Netherlands  Croatia  Greece	England  Romania  Scotland  Turkey  Bulgaria  Russia  Poland  Sweden  Israel	Norway  Ukraine  Serbia  Denmark  Northern Ireland  Republic of Ireland  Finland   Switzerland  Belgium	Slovakia  Bosnia and Herzegovina  Hungary  Moldova  Wales  Macedonia  Belarus  Lithuania  Cyprus	Georgia  Albania  Slovenia  Latvia  Iceland  Armenia  Austria  Kazakhstan  Azerbaijan	Liechtenstein  Estonia  Malta  Luxembourg  Montenegro  Andorra  Faroe Islands  San Marino

Draw

The draw for the group stage took place in Durban, South Africa on 25 November 2007.[4] During the draw, teams were drawn from the six pots A to F (see above) into the nine groups below, starting with pot F, which filled position 6 in the groups, then continued with pot E filling position 5, pot D in position 4 and so on.[5]

Ranking of second placed teams

Because one group had one team fewer than the others, matches against the sixth placed team in each group were not included in this ranking. As a result, eight matches played by each team counted for the purposes of the second placed table.

Second round

Main article: 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification – UEFA Second Round

The UEFA second round (often referred to as the play off stage) was contested by the best eight runners up from the nine first round groups. The winners of each of four home and away ties joined the group winners in the World Cup finals in South Africa. Norway, with 10 points, was ranked 9th so failed to qualify for the second round.

Seeding and draw

The eight teams were seeded according to the FIFA World Rankings released on 16 October (shown in parentheses in the table below). The draw for the ties was held in Zürich on 19 October, with the top four teams seeded into one pot and the bottom four teams seeded into a second. A separate draw decided the host of the first leg.[7]
