Northern Ireland will face Ukraine in Belfast on Saturday, 14 November, as they aim to secure promotion to League A of the Nations League. The team, managed by Michael O'Neill, is currently at the top of League B2 after an undefeated start to their campaign.
The side has not conceded a goal in their four Nations League matches, with away victories against Georgia and Ukraine, and goalless draws at home to Hungary and Georgia. This defensive record is unique among the 54 teams in the Nations League.
Following the match against Ukraine, Northern Ireland will travel to Hungary on Tuesday to conclude their group fixtures. Key selection dilemmas for O'Neill include maintaining the defensive record, the versatile role of Trai Hume, and who will lead the attack.
