FIFA ranking: April 2019 preview

Here are the minimum and maximum points for each team in the April 2019 ranking. FIFA will publish the ranking on April 4th.

Also check the probable April ranking to find out about the inclusion-method I used for this preview.

Minimum and maximum points per team are determined with a small piece of software which calculates per match the minimum and maximum possible points for each participating team, given the minimum and maximum starting values of both teams before the match.
