World Cup Qualifiers
It’s never too early to start thinking about 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa. For the first time ever, the World Cup will be held on the African continent.
A total of 200 teams have entered the race for one of the 31 places at the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa. The countries from the four regions, Asia, Africa, Europe and North, Central America and Caribbean, are split into competing qualifying groups.
The preliminary phase, which began in the Oceanian Zone back in August 2007, is now in full swing, with only the Host Nation guaranteed a berth in world football's showpiece event.
The European qualifying format will consist of eight groups of six teams and one group of five teams. The winners of each group will qualify automatically with the eight best runners up playing home and away play-off matches to determine the other four places. A total of 13 teams will qualify from Europe.
Tickets are currently available for all of the following England Home Qualifying Matches.
