WOMEN'S SOCCER WORLD CUP DRAW AT A GLANCE

The draw for the FIFA Women's World Cup will take place on Saturday night, led by two-time winner Carli Lloyd.

A team will be drawn from each of four pots to form eight four-team groups.

POT 1: Australia (13), New Zealand (22), United States (1), Sweden (2), Germany (3), England (4), France (5), Spain (6).

POT 2: Canada (7), Netherlands (8), Brazil (9), Japan (11), Norway (12), Italy (14), China (15), South Korea (17).

POT 3: Denmark (18), Switzerland (21), Ireland (24), Colombia (27), Argentina (29), Vietnam (34), Costa Rica (37), Jamaica (43).

POT 4: Nigeria (45), Philippines (53), South Africa (54), Morocco (76), Zambia (81), three play-off winners.

Teams from the same confederation (except for Europe) cannot be drawn against each other - meaning Australia cannot be drawn against Asian rivals such as Japan.

Immediately following the draw, a separate ballot will put the teams into slots in each group, to determine what times and cities they will play in.

Three places are yet to be filled in the 32-nation tournament, with New Zealand hosting a 10-team play-off in February to complete the line-up.
