Qualifying stage

Draw

The allocation of teams into qualifying groups was based on that of 1978 FIFA World Cup qualification with several changes, reflecting the absence of some nations:

  • Group 1 did not include Portugal (moved to Group 2) and Cyprus, but included Sweden (moved from Group 6)
  • Group 2 did not include England and Finland (both moved to Group 5), but included Portugal (moved from Group 1)
  • Group 3 did not include Malta
  • Group 4 did not include Netherlands, Northern Ireland and Iceland, but included France and Bulgaria (both moved from Group 5)
  • Group 5 composed of England and Finland (both moved from Group 2) and Norway (moved from Group 6)
  • Group 6 (based on World Cup qualifying Group 7) did not include Wales, but included Switzerland (moved from World Cup Group 6)
  • Groups 7 and 8 included the same teams as World Cup qualifying Groups 8 and 9 respectively
