UEFA laws have revealed what will happen to England's group at Euro 2024 should Serbia pull out of the tournament.
Serbia lost their Group C opener to England last Sunday as they resume their campaign today against Slovenia.
But Serbia have threatened to quit the Euros after accusing Croatia and Albania fans of derogatory chants during their fixture on Wednesday.

The General Secretary of the Football Association of Serbia, Jovan Surbatovic, has submitted a request for UEFA to punish Croatia and Albania for the alleged chants just before the hour mark of their Group B clash.
Surbatovic has warned that Serbia are prepared to walk away from Germany if no action is taken against Croatia and Albania.
If Serbia go onto withdraw from Euro 2024, it would see their final group stage match against Denmark fall through, according to The Sun.

Per UEFA laws, Denmark would be handed an automatic 3-0 victory and Serbia would also be heavily fined.
However, this would leave an uneven number of teams in the competition, potentially requiring a new schedule for the tournament.
Teams in Serbia's group may also be given extra time to rest without the need to play an extra match.
As England have already played the Serbs, this would not apply to them.

Serbia's final game against Denmark is slated for next Tuesday.
SPORTbible have contacted UEFA for comment.
Croatia and Albania, meanwhile, played out a thrilling 2-2 draw as they occupy third and fourth place in Group B respectively.

Croatia lost their opening game 3-0 to Spain while Albania failed to hold onto their lead against Italy, losing 2-1.
They both have one point to their name as they trail leaders Spain and Italy.
Surbatovic hit out at the 'scandalous' actions as he slammed Croatia and Albania fans, urging UEFA to take action.
"First of all, I want to thank our fans for their support in the match against England and I hope we will beat Slovenia," he said.

"What happened is scandalous and we will ask UEFA for sanctions, even if it means not continuing the competition.
"We are sure that they will be punished, because they have already responded to our appeal to remove the so-called journalist from Albania from the championship.
"We will demand from UEFA to punish the federations of both selections. We do not want to participate in that, but if UEFA does not punish them, we will think how will we proceed."
