UEFA have announced the seedings for the Euro 2012 qualifiers, with the draw for the qualifying stage set to take place on February 7 next year.
Despite missing out on Euro 2008, England remain in Pot One alongside champions Spain and current World Cup holders Italy. Portugal and France are also among the top seeds after scraping through their World Cup play-off matches.
Euro 2004 champions Greece are in Pot Two alongside the likes of the Czech Republic and Turkey, while Scotland's dismal World Cup qualifying campaign sees them in Pot Three. Although Slovenia have reached next year's World Cup finals at the expense of Russia, they remain in Pot Four.
Montenegro will make their bow in the European Championships qualifying stage, having finished fifth in their World Cup qualifying group. Zoran Filipovic's side are among the teams in Pot Five, with the continent's minnows in Pot Six.

Pot One: Spain, Germany, Holland, Italy, England, Croatia, Portugal, France, Russia.
