How seeding works
The strongest teams don't lose to the draw.
Seeds are paired so the top seed plays the bottom seed, the second seed plays the second-to-last, and so on. With 4 teams you'll need 0 byes in round one — the top seeds get them so the strongest teams don't get knocked out by a quirk of the draw.
