Wales will host Austria on March 24th next year in the play-off semi-final for the 2022 World Cup, while Scotland have been drawn at home to Ukraine.
The winning sides of these matches will face each other in a final for a spot in Qatar with the winner of Wales v Austria playing at home.
Wales are bidding to reach their first World Cup in 64 years, while Scotland and Austria have waited 24 years to play in one. Austria are in the play-offs courtesy of winning their Nations League group ahead of Norway, Romania and Northern Ireland.
There are three different one leg play-offs, that will determine the three teams to take the final spots. The semis include Italy v North Macedonia and Portugal at home to Turkey. That draw means either European champions Italy or Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal will not be at the World Cup, with the winners of their semis meeting in a final.
The third final will be played between the winners of Russia v Poland and Sweden v Czech Republic.
The semifinals and the finals, both played over one leg, will take place over the course of five days from 24-29 March.
