Notes

  1. The Sweden v Denmark match was scheduled for 20 October 2017, 18:15 local time, at the Gamla Ullevi, Gothenburg, but was cancelled by Denmark because of a pay dispute between the Danish team and their federation.[2][3] UEFA opened disciplinary proceedings against Denmark for refusal to play[4] and, on 16 November, it was announced that UEFA awarded the match to Sweden by a score of 3–0, and fined Denmark €20,000.[5][6]
