FIFA ranking: September 2019 preview

Here are the minimum and maximum points for each team in the September 2019 ranking. FIFA will publish the ranking on September 19th.

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.
Note that only scheduled matches with both teams known at calculation time are incorporated in this analysis.

  1. Why are the min. points for Belgium 1685? I = 25 for both of their matches yet min. points are 61 points lower than their total before September (1746). Same for France, etc.
