How the quarter-finals will work is the winner's of each League A group will be drawn against a League A runner-up. Teams from the same group are not allowed to be drawn against one another, eg France and Italy can't face each other.

For the promotion/relegation play-offs, the teams will be drawn as such:

Third-placed teams from League A will be paired against League B runners-up. Teams who finished third in League B will come up against League C runners-up, whilst two best-ranked sides from League C will face the runners-up of League D.

The promotion/relegation play-off games will take place across two legs, one home game and one away. If the team from the higher league wins the play-offs, both sides will remain in their respective leagues.

However if the lower league teams wins the two-legged affair, they will swap places with the higher-ranked team, taking their place in the higher league whilst the other team is demoted to the lower league.

When will the games be played? The next round of Nations League fixtures will be played across March 20 to 23, with the League A semi-finals and final scheduled to take place in June.
