The Nations League has only run for four seasons, with Portugal winning the first and most recent editions. Spain and France won the other two competitions, with all other members still waiting for their first Nations League crown.
Reigning champions Portugal will be looking to retain their title and claim a third Nations League crown from five attempts. Spain, France, England and Germany will also be tipped, and a good World Cup campaign could see any of them made favourites. Netherlands and Belgium also have strong sides, whilst Italy will be hoping to return to the international stage with a bang after missing out on this year’s World Cup.
The Nations League is split into four leagues. Leagues A/B/C all have 16 teams split into four groups. Group D has six teams split into two groups.
England’s Nations League matches will be shown on ITV, and Wales’ matches can be seen on S4C or BBC iPlayer.
