UEFA Nations League 2018/19


First edition. The 55 UEFA member federations were split into four league levels (League A wih 12 teams, League B with 12 Teams, League C with 15 teams and League D with 16 teams) according to their UEFA national team coefficients at the end of the group stage of the European 2018 World Cup qualifiers.
All leagues are split into four groups of 3 or 4 teams playing a double round robin, with group winners earning promotion for the next edition, replacing the teams finishing on last place in each group, which were to be relegated; however, in the summer of 2019 UEFA decided to extend both League A and B to 16 teams for the next edition; thus no teams were relegated from any category while the top-2 of each group in both League C and D were promoted, as well as the best 3rd placed team in League D (leaving just 7 teams in the bottom category).

The four winners of the League A groups entered a knock-out stage for the Nations League championship.

In all four categories, a playoff will be held for one place at the European Championship 2020.
