Portugal will meet former world champions Italy, and Poland in group three.

The Nations League is a new initiative by the football governing body in Europe, UEFA, that will see a competition for national teams replace friendly matches with competitive games.

This allows countries play against similarly ranked sides, with winners of each group qualifying for the finals scheduled for June 2018.

Teams are spread across four Leagues, A to D, with three to four nations drawn into groups, one to four.

Each group winner of League A, which has countries like world champions, Germany, France, Spain, and Netherlands, will qualify straight to the finals, featuring the semifinals, third place and final matches, in June next year.
