The 2026/27 Nations League live streams are back as the 54 nations in UEFA compete in a three-tier promotion/relegation league phase before next year's knockout phase and finals tournament in the summer. Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal defend their crown after beating Spain on penalties in the 2025 final. Matchday 4 runs from Sunday 4 to Tuesday 6 October.
With CR7’s international career up in the air after a spectacular flounce from Jorge Jesus’ squad, Portugal have given a fascinating look into a future without their preening captain. Goncalo Ramos has impressed at centre-forward, with the side’s mobility vastly improved. They face Norway on Sunday, with a victory guaranteeing a quarter-final spot in a group where any of the other three sides could make it through after Wales beat Norway on Thursday.
Jurgen Klopp recorded a first victory as Germany boss with a 2-0 win against Serbia in which Florian Wirtz impressed. It’s Greece, though, who top Group B1and Ivan Jovanovic will look to record another victory over Germany to match a first in the country’s history on Matchday 2. The Netherlands face Serbia, who must win to avoid probably relegation.
France’s 1-1 draw with Italy means the former’s game against Belgium on Monday will go a long way to deciding top spot in Group A1. Kylian Mbappe remains out for Zinedine Zidane, but Michael Olise is in a rich vein of form. Italy face pointless Turkey as Roberto Mancini’s Azzurri seek continued improvement.
The performance of Matchday 3 arguably went to England after their 7-0 win in Croatia. The Three Lions were superb in the game behind closed doors – minus a handful of local school children and a 100 hardy England fans – and Harry Kane & Co will want another positive display against Czechia at Wembley. World champions Spain remain top of the group and looking likely to sail into the knockout phase.
This is the last of four matchdays to be squeezed into the current three-week international period.
