England

So if all England's group games are at Wembley, presumably the same will apply for every other host nation who qualifies?

 

Was just reading up on this.  There are 12 host nations and 6 groups, with each group having 2 hosts allocated already.  Scotland are the other host in our group, but because they can only make it through the playoffs, the game between us will be at Wembley.

 

Italy get 3 home games because Azerbaijan didn't qualify.  If both hosts in a group qualify, the game between them will be determined by some complex tie breaking procedure I didn't bother reading.

Aye. All the 'host' nations know which group they're being put in if they qualify.

 

It's gonna be an interesting experiment. Can't help but think it will lose a lot of the feel of a tournament you get with it being in one country. Some interesting cities though, will definitely be applying for tickets when the next batch are released.

It’s good that England smash teams now though. Seemed to be an age where no matter who we played, 3-5 nil seemed to be the max. Used to be jealous when you’d see Poland batter the minnows 9-0 and we’d beat Estonia 3-1 or something.
