Scotland find themselves in the second tier after being relegated from League A in the last Nations League.

Only the four winners in League A will automatically qualify for the finals and the remaining teams will have to go through the play-offs for the remaining eight places.

If Scotland earn a play-off, they must avoid finishing bottom of their group, which would also mean relegation to League C.

However, if they were to win their group, they would not only earn promotion to League A but their first-round play-off would be against a side who finished second or third in League B.

Should Scotland finish second or third in their group, they would face a side who finished in fourth place in League A, or a Group B winner.

The second round of the play-offs are seeded and, if they progress, they would likely face League A opposition

The first round of the two-legged play-off is scheduled for October 2026, while the final play-off round will be at the end of November and start of December.
