The Most Intriguing Nations League Matches to Watch This Weekend

The Most Intriguing Nations League Matches to Watch This Weekend

Oct 23, 2024 8:24 PM

With football across the globe at a halt due to the international break, the UEFA Nations League will take centre stage in Europe as matchday five starts this weekend.

There are a host of fixtures being played on Saturday and Sunday, and you can live stream all Nations League games using the sites here.

It will be a rematch of the Euro 2016 Final when Portugal host France, but it’s still unknown if Cristiano Ronaldo will be back for his huge clash after picking up an ankle injury with Juventus last weekend.

Elsewhere, Germany will be looking for a much-needed victory after drawing three of their first four matches when they face Ukraine. Also in Group 4A, Switzerland host Spain.

On Sunday, Poland will look to stay top of their group when they play Italy on Sunday, while Belgium go head-to-head with England.

Portugal vs France

Currently both tied at the top of their group with 10 points apiece, this match will prove to be extremely important.

The Portuguese won this competition in its inaugural year back in 2019, beating the Netherlands in the final. However, in order to advance to the Nations League play-offs, they’ll need to win this group.

Matchday three of the Nations League saw Portugal and France play to a scoreless draw but, other than that, they’ve both won all their games thus far.

Fernando Santos’ squad has looked solid thus far, beating Sweden (twice) and Croatia. Liverpool star Diogo Jota already has three goals in the competition and has hit his best form for his club, so it will be exciting to see what he’s able to do with his country against France.

The defending World Cup champions will be also be seeking a crucial three points. Borussia Monchengladbach striker Marcus Thuram has received his first call-up to the national team and should add some attacking firepower for Les Bleus.
