With two games left for Ireland in Euro 2016 qualification, the table looks like this ahead of their matches with Germany and Poland.

With Scotland's two games coming against Poland and Gibraltar, it is safe to assume that Scotland will get three points from their next two games at the very least.

If Gordon Strachan's side lose tonight in Hampden Park to Poland, Ireland are guaranteed at least a play off spot to reach Euro 2016.

Not including Ireland's game tonight against Germany and presuming Scotland beat Gibraltar, Ireland will have to match whatever result Scotland get against the Poles.

Of course, a positive result against Germany tonight will help Martin O'Neill's side. A win over the World Champions will guarantee at least a play off spot.

Despite the games in Dublin and Glasgow tonight, it looks like Ireland's potential future of surviving Group D will not be decided until Sunday's game in Warsaw.
