The English Women must win both of their remaining games and hope for assistance from someone else to progress, while Ireland sit bottom of the same Group with no chance. In the other Group, Scotland are leading, but with nothing guaranteed as three teams still have the chance to overtake them.
In the Men's competition tomorrow Ireland play Switzerland and Kazakhstan, Scotland play Wales and New Zealand, Wales play Scotland and Canada with England playing New Zealand and Finland. This leaves only one other game to be played - Ireland v Australia on Thursday morning.
For the Women it's Scotland v Finland and Switzerland, then England v Italy followed by Ireland v Lithuania to complete the qualifying stages.
