Play-off draw

Eighth-ranked runner-up vs Seventh-ranked runner-up

  • Two-legged tie from 14–17 November 2021.

How the draw worked

Contenders

  • The teams who competed in the FIFA Futsal World Cup elite round: Azerbaijan, Belarus, Croatia, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Italy, Kazakhstan, Portugal (holders), Romania, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Ukraine
  • The nine qualifying round group winners: Albania, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Georgia, Hungary, Latvia, Moldova, Norway, Poland
  • The seven qualifying round play-off winners (ties played 2–11 November)

Draw procedure

  • The 25 teams already qualified were seeded based on the UEFA Men's Futsal National Team coefficients. They are split into three pots of eight (A, B and C), with Norway in Pot D. Pot E contained the winners of the seven qualifying round play-offs later this year.
  • The teams from Pot E were drawn into position 1 of Groups 1 to 7, with Norway placed in Group 8 and their position in the group then drawn (1, 2, 3 or 4).
  • The first team drawn from Pot C were drawn into Group 1, and their position in the group then drawn (2, 3 or 4). The same procedure was followed for the rest of Pot C, followed by Pot B and Pot A.
  • Due to decisions of the UEFA Executive Committee, the following pairs of teams cannot meet: Azerbaijan and Armenia, Russia and Ukraine.
  • A further draw took place for the November 2021 play-off between the eventual seventh and eighth best runners-up to decide which team will be at home in the first leg.
