World Cup 2022 Group D permutations: What do Australia need to qualify?
All the World Cup Group D permutations ahead of the final round of matches between France, Australia, Denmark and Tunisia.
The World Cup is bubbling towards the knockout rounds with Group D next under the microscope as Australia scramble to qualify for the Round of 16.
Australia were placed in a tricky group but appear to be holding their own against stern opposition. If they avoid defeat against Denmark, they've essentially booked their place in the next round.
That remains a big 'if' though, with Denmark among the dark horses to go long in this tournament. Tunisia aren't entirely out of the picture just yet as they face qualified France, who may look to rest one or two stars in this one.
RadioTimes.com brings you all the World Cup 2022 Group D permutations ahead of a huge day in Qatar.
