Just to de-tangle what surely must be one of the most complicated qualification scenarios in football ever, here's where we are in Group D.

Republic of Ireland and Poland play in Warsaw in both teams' final match on Sunday.

A draw would leave both teams on 19 points.

Germany currently lead the group on 19 points, but will be expected to beat Georgia at home in their final game.

If though, all three teams end up on 19 points, both Poland and Republic of Ireland have better head-to-head records than Germany, and both would finish above them.

As to who finishes higher between Poland and Republic of Ireland if both teams finish on 19 points, here's how it works:

A 0-0 draw in Warsaw means Poland go through - they will have scored more away goals in meetings between the two sides.

A 1-1 draw in Warsaw means Poland go through - they have a better goal difference of the two sides.

A draw of 2-2 or higher would mean Republic of Ireland go through - as they will have scored more away goals in meetings between the two sides.
