 England in the European Championship 2000 - Preliminary Competition
UEFA divided the 49 teams seeking to qualify for the 2000 European Championship finals into nine groups at the preliminary draw held in Ghent, Belgium on January 18, 1998.
Before the draw, UEFA seeded the teams into five tiers using its late 1997 European national team ranking table, which assigned each team a coefficient calculated from results in the qualifying competitions for the 1996 European Championship and the 1998 World Cup.
Moreover, UEFA made Germany the No. 1 seed although it was ranked 5th, presumably because of its fine record in the European Championship, and thus all teams with rankings higher than Germany were seeded a place lower than their ranking.
