Notes:
^* As per Rugby Europe rules, "In case of two teams equal in ranking points at the end of the series, the point difference will apply (difference of points scored ‘for and against’ by each respective team in all tournaments Matches).

Therefore France (+238) were placed higher than Ireland (+200), Spain (+20) were placed higher than Belgium (-44), and Ukraine (-185) were placed higher than Croatia (-263) due to higher points difference.
