England have already booked their place at next summer's tournament but Northern Ireland, Scotland, the Republic of Ireland, and Wales all have work to do over the next few days.

Elsewhere, rivals will clash in the Women's Super League with derbies in Manchester and North London while League One and League Two benefit from the temporary lifting of the Saturday 3pm blackout.

Sky Sports boast the lion's share of football TV rights in 2025/26, including a huge number of Premier League and FA Women's Super League games, as well as a deal that will broadcast over 1,000 English Football League and Carabao Cup matches over the course of the season.

TNT Sports will show Premier League, Champions League, Europa League and Conference League action throughout next season, with all of the action available with a discovery+ Premium Monthly Pass.
