Amsterdam - The Nations League draw is due tonight! And for this ceremony, draw professional Jogi Löw needs strong nerves.

In the group draw for the UEFA competition, which takes place in Amsterdam on Tuesday from 6 p.m., the selection of national coach Löw is only placed in pot 4 of league A.

The four relegation teams from the first edition only remain in League A, as the top class was increased by UEFA from 12 to 16 participants. Two group games take place in September, October and November. The Nations League winner will then be chosen in a tournament of the four group winners in June 2021 in one of the participating countries.

At the premiere of the competition, which Löw also viewed with skepticism, the DFB selection was victorious in their group behind the Netherlands (0: 3/2: 2) and France (0: 0/1: 2) in last place. Thereupon Löw decided to make a radical change and from then on did without the three ex-world champions Mats Hummels , Thomas Müller and Jérôme Boateng .

However, the Nations League currently plays no role for Löw in the daily planning. The national coach focuses his entire focus on preparations for the European Championship in summer. Then France (June 16), Portugal (June 20) and a winner of the playoffs in March (June 24) are waiting as group opponents in the Allianz Arena * in Munich.

Meanwhile, the fans are looking forward to the DFB Cup. The quarter-finals will be held on Tuesday and Wednesday, we will report on the cracker between Schalke and FC Bayern in the live ticker.
