Sweden thrashed Luxembourg to maintain their hopes of automatic World Cup qualification and push the Netherlands to the brink of elimination.
Sweden, second in the group, hold a three-point lead and a goal difference that is better by 12 goals over the Dutch, who they meet on Tuesday.
The Dutch won 3-1 in Belarus, while France beat Bulgaria 1-0 to maintain their one-point lead over Sweden.
France will qualify as group winners if they beat Belarus on Tuesday.

BBC reports that Marcus Berg scored four times for Sweden as Luxembourg, who drew 0-0 with France in September, were embarrassed.
