UEFA have confirmed the pots for the draw for the league phase of qualifiers for the 2027 Women’s World Cup, to be held on TUE 04 NOV 2025 in Nyon, Switzerland. The 53 teams will be allocated into 14 groups in three leagues.

The league phase will be played in a similar format to the 2025 UEFA Women’s Nations League. Teams have been placed into Leagues A, B, and C, and into pots within each league, based on the results of that competition.

Leagues A and B each have four groups, containing four teams each. Each group will be allocated one team from each pot in the corresponding league. League C has six groups, three with four teams each, and three with three teams each. Each group will be allocated one team from the first three pots, and three of the groups will also contain one team from Pot 4.

The league phase will be played FEB-JUN 2026. Four teams from League A will qualify directly for Brazil 2027. The remaining teams in League A, plus some teams from Leagues B and C, will advance to the UEFA playoffs, with seven more places at the Women’s World Cup and one at the interconfederation playoffs available.
