Russia's football team will find out later who they'll face in next summer's European Championships. The draw for the group stages takes place in Switzerland, and Russia will be in the 4th pot.

The sixteen teams will be put into four groups of four. The key question is who Russia will get.

The worst case scenario would see Russia drawn in a group of Italy, Germany and the Netherlands.

A better one would be the country grouped with Romania, the Czech Republic and Austria.

It’s going to be very difficult for Russia to win the Championship as they will come out against a lot of very good sides.
