The draw for Euro 2016 takes place in Paris on Saturday and one thing that has become clear as the permutations are discussed is that FIFA and UEFA rankings are very different. And it's a difference that might count for something as the groups are drawn.
The two organizations use different methods to calculate their national standings. FIFA takes into account the last four years, with the last 12 months the most heavily weighted and the weighting decreasing over time. They also count friendly matches. Meanwhile Cedric Ogbuehi Jersey , UEFA ranks only from the last three tournaments, including qualifying matches, so the rankings for the pots in Paris are weighted as Euro 2012 qualifiers and tournament (20 percent) Josh Malone Jersey , World Cup 2014 qualifiers and tournament (40 percent) and Euro 2016 qualifiers (40 percent) with matches until October 14 taken into account.

What does this all mean for Saturday? Here's a look at the most underrated teams that everyone will be looking to avoid. And the few glimmers of hope in the pot.
