Hungary vs Finland

Competition – International Friendly

Stadium: Puskás Aréna

Date: 5th June 2026

Kick-off time – 18:45 GMT

Friday evening at the Puskás Aréna in Budapest sees Hungary host Finland in a summer international friendly, with both nations watching the World Cup from the outside after falling short in qualifying. The occasion carries no competitive weight but offers both squads a chance to put a disappointing cycle behind them and build some momentum heading into the next international window.

Hungary have shown enough quality in recent months to suggest the qualifying exit was more circumstantial than a reflection of the squad’s true level. Their most recent outing was a goalless home draw against Greece in March — a measured performance against competitive European opposition. Prior to that, a 1-0 home win over Slovenia in a friendly. Before that, a 3-2 home defeat to the Republic of Ireland in qualifying was their one significant setback. Earlier in this run, a 1-0 away win in Armenia kept their qualifying momentum intact. The sequence opened with a creditable 2-2 draw away in Portugal. Two wins and two draws from five, with that Portugal result standing as one of the more impressive away points of Hungary’s recent cycle, reflects a squad capable of competing at a reasonable level.

Finland arrive in the same situation — watching the tournament from home — and with form that illustrates exactly why qualification proved beyond them. Their most recent outing was a 1-1 draw away at Cape Verde in March. Prior to that, a 2-0 away win over New Zealand. Before that, a 4-0 home win over Andorra. Earlier in this run, a 1-0 home defeat to Malta in qualifying — one of the results that proved fatal to their chances. The sequence opened with a heavy 4-0 away defeat to the Netherlands. Two wins from five, with losses against the Netherlands and Malta, reflects a Finland squad that has been unable to find the consistency required at this level.

The head-to-head record favours Hungary, who have won three of the last five meetings, with no draws and two wins for Finland. Most recently, Hungary won 2-0 at home in the Nations League in November 2018. In the previous encounter, Finland won 1-0 in the Nations League in September 2018.

Neither side reports significant injury concerns ahead of this fixture, which should allow both coaches the luxury of experimenting with combinations and giving opportunities to players who may have been on the fringes.

In Hungary, the match is live on M4 Sports. In Finland, viewers can follow on YLE TV2. The game is also available in Germany on DAZN Germany and in Sweden on Viaplay Sweden.

France vs Ivory Coast Preview

Gamingtips Staff — Sat, 30 May 2026 14:35:31 +0000

France vs Ivory Coast

Competition – International Friendly

Stadium: Stade de la Beaujoire

Date: 4th June 2026

Kick-off time – 20:10 GMT

Thursday evening at the Stade de la Beaujoire in Nantes brings one of the most mouth-watering pre-World Cup friendly fixtures on the calendar. France host Ivory Coast in what is effectively a final dress rehearsal before both nations head to the tournament, and the quality on show from both sides makes this a genuinely compelling occasion regardless of the context. Two of world football’s most talented squads, both in strong form, both ready to be tested.

France arrive in the kind of form that underlines why they are considered serious contenders for the tournament. Their most recent outing was a 3-1 away win in Colombia in late March — a performance that showcased their attacking depth and composure. Prior to that, a 2-1 away win against Brazil, one of the standout friendly results of the March international window. Before that, a 3-1 away win in Azerbaijan in World Cup qualifying. Earlier in this run, a dominant 4-0 home win over Ukraine in qualifying. The sequence opened with a 2-2 draw away in Iceland — a result that represented their only dropped points across this entire stretch. Four wins from five, with three of those victories coming on the road against quality opposition, reflects a France squad operating at a very high level.

Ivory Coast arrive in Nantes in equally impressive shape. Their most recent outing was a 1-0 home win over Scotland in a March friendly — a composed, professional performance. Prior to that, a stunning 4-0 away win in South Korea demonstrated their attacking quality at its most clinical. Before that, a 3-2 away defeat to Egypt in the Africa Cup of Nations was their solitary setback across this run. Earlier in this run, a 3-0 home win over Burkina Faso in the same competition. The sequence opened with a 3-2 away win at Gabon in the Africa Cup of Nations group stage. Four wins from five, with their only loss coming against Egypt in a competitive continental tournament, reflects an Ivory Coast squad that is sharp, dangerous and arriving at the World Cup with considerable momentum.

The statistics from across the recent run are notably close. Both sides have scored five goals in their last two matches combined and both defensive records have been largely solid. France have conceded five goals across five outings; Ivory Coast have conceded none across their most recent two fixtures. The quality of football on Thursday evening is likely to be high.

The head-to-head record favours France, who have won two of the three known meetings with one draw and no wins for Ivory Coast. All three encounters have taken place on French soil. Most recently, France won 2-1 at home in March 2022. The previous encounter was a 0-0 draw when France hosted in November 2016.

Ivory Coast carry both of the injury concerns for this fixture. NDicka is ruled out through a muscle problem and Kossounou is absent for the season — the loss of NDicka is notable in central defence, while Kossounou’s season-ending injury removes an experienced defensive option entirely. France report no injury concerns and go into Thursday’s match at full strength.

In France, the match is live on TF1 and TF1+. In the United Kingdom and Ireland, the game is available on Amazon Prime Video. In Ivory Coast, viewers can follow on RTI La 3 and NCI, and in the United States on Fox Soccer Plus and fuboTV.

Lineups & Injuries

France: No injuries reported.

Ivory Coast: NDicka (Out), Kossounou (Out)

Ivory Coast carry the only injury concerns heading into this fixture. The loss of NDicka removes a key defensive presence and Kossounou’s absence for the season further thins options at the back. France name a fully fit squad and hold a clear advantage in available personnel for the final pre-tournament outing.

Gamingtips Staff — Sat, 30 May 2026 14:31:00 +0000

Netherlands vs Algeria

Competition – International Friendly

Stadium: De Kuip

Date: 3rd June 2026

Kick-off time – 19:45 GMT

Wednesday evening at De Kuip in Rotterdam serves up an intriguing pre-World Cup international friendly as the Netherlands welcome Algeria in what promises to be a competitive and informative workout for both sides. The Dutch host one of Africa’s most dangerous qualifying nations in a fixture that carries genuine tactical interest — two sides built around fluid, attacking football, both wanting to head into the World Cup with a sharp performance under their belts.

The Netherlands arrive at this fixture in excellent form. Their most recent outing was a 1-1 home draw against Ecuador in March — a controlled performance against solid South American opposition that kept their momentum ticking over. Prior to that, a 2-1 home win over Norway. Before that, a dominant 4-0 home win over Lithuania in World Cup qualifying. Earlier in this run, a 1-1 draw away at Poland in qualifying — a composed point on the road. The sequence opened with a 4-0 home win over Finland. Three wins and two draws from five, with no defeats and a strong defensive record across their home fixtures in particular, reflects a Dutch squad that is well-organised, well-drilled and confident heading into the tournament.

Algeria come to Rotterdam having mixed moments of real quality with one significant setback. Their most recent outing was a goalless home draw against Uruguay — a competitive result against strong South American opposition that underlined their defensive resilience. Prior to that, a remarkable 7-0 home win over Guatemala demonstrated their capacity to be devastating in attack when the opposition allows space. Before that, a 2-0 home defeat to Nigeria in the Africa Cup of Nations group stage was their only setback across this run. Earlier in this run, a 1-0 home win over Congo DR in the same competition. The sequence opened with a 3-1 away win at Equatorial Guinea. Three wins, one draw and one loss from five, with that Nigeria result standing as the only blemish, reflects an Algerian squad that is capable of producing genuinely impressive football in attack.

The two sides have never previously met, which adds an element of the unknown to proceedings. There is no historical data to draw on, no familiar patterns from previous encounters — Wednesday’s match is entirely defined by current form and the quality each team produces on the night.

Algeria carry injury concerns into this fixture. Boudaoui and Luca Zidane are both ruled out — the loss of Zidane from midfield is notable given his influence in Algeria’s best performances, while Boudaoui’s absence further depletes the midfield options. The Netherlands report no injury concerns and will be able to name their preferred lineup.

In the Netherlands, the match is live on NPO 1 and available via NPO Start. In Algeria, viewers can watch on Al Aoula Algeria. In the United Kingdom and Ireland, the game is available on Amazon Prime Video, and in the United States on Fox Soccer Plus and fuboTV.

Lineups & Injuries

Netherlands: No injuries reported.

Algeria: Boudaoui (Out), Zidane (Out)

Algeria carry the only injury concerns heading into this fixture. The loss of Boudaoui and Zidane reduces their midfield options at a critical stage of preparation, and the absence of two players capable of influencing games in the final third will test squad depth. The Netherlands are fully fit and hold a clear advantage in available personnel.

Gamingtips Staff — Sat, 30 May 2026 14:22:37 +0000

Croatia vs Belgium

Competition – International Friendly

Stadium: Stadion HNK Rijeka

Date: 2nd June 2026

Kick-off time – 17:00 GMT

Tuesday afternoon at the Stadion HNK Rijeka sees Croatia host Belgium in a pre-World Cup international friendly that pitches two of Europe’s most experienced tournament nations against each other in a genuine quality test. With the World Cup just around the corner, both sides will be treating this as a final opportunity to bed in combinations, assess squad depth and sharpen their readiness before the competition begins.

Croatia head into this game in strong domestic form, with only a high-profile friendly against Brazil blotting an otherwise impressive recent run. Their most recent outing was a 3-1 defeat away at Brazil in April — a result that has to be contextualised against the quality of the opposition rather than treated as a form concern. Prior to that, a 2-1 away win in Colombia in a March friendly demonstrated their ability to win on the road against competitive international sides. Before that, a 3-2 away win in Montenegro in World Cup qualifying. Earlier in this run, a 3-1 home win over the Faroe Islands. The sequence opened with a 3-0 home win over Gibraltar. Four wins from five before the Brazil result, including three consecutive away victories, reflects a Croatia squad that is sharp, organised and in good rhythm ahead of the tournament.

Belgium arrive in Rijeka without a defeat in their last five outings and with some genuinely eye-catching results behind them. Their most recent outing was a 1-1 draw away at Mexico in April — a controlled performance against a competitive host. Prior to that, a remarkable 5-2 away win over the United States in a March friendly, a result that underlined Belgium’s attacking quality at the highest level. Before that, a dominant 7-0 home win over Liechtenstein in qualifying. Earlier in this run, a 1-1 draw away at Kazakhstan. The sequence opened with a 4-2 away win in Wales in World Cup qualifying. Three wins, two draws and no defeats from five is a solid record, and the nature of the wins — particularly against the United States — suggests Belgium are hitting their stride at the right moment.

The head-to-head record favours Belgium, who have won two of the last five meetings, with two draws and one win for Croatia. Most recently, the sides drew 0-0 when Croatia hosted at the 2022 World Cup. The previous encounter saw Belgium win 1-0 at home in a June 2021 friendly.

Both sides carry injury concerns. Croatia lose Sutalo from their defensive options, while Belgium are without Debast and Lukaku — the absence of Lukaku in attack is by far the most significant blow for either squad, removing their most prolific and experienced striker from the final pre-tournament outing. Croatia’s single absentee in defence is notable but more manageable given the depth available to them.

In the UK and Ireland, the match is available on DAZN UK and Amazon Prime Video. In Belgium, the game is live on La Une and DAZN Belgium. In the United States, viewers can watch on fuboTV and ViX, and in Croatia the match is broadcast on Nova TV.

Lineups & Injuries

Croatia: Sutalo (Out)

Belgium: Debast (Out), Lukaku (Out)

Belgium carry the more disruptive injury situation. Losing Lukaku removes their most dangerous and experienced attacking presence for the last match before the World Cup, and the absence of Debast in defence also disrupts their preferred backline. Croatia lose one defensive option in Sutalo, but the broader impact on the squad is comparatively limited.

Norway vs Sweden

Competition – International Friendly

Stadium: Ullevaal Stadion

Date: 1st June 2026

Kick-off time – 17:00 GMT

Monday afternoon at the Ullevaal Stadion in Oslo brings one of Scandinavia’s most keenly contested rivalries, as Norway host Sweden in a pre-World Cup international friendly. With the tournament just days away, this is the final dress rehearsal for both sides — a last chance to settle on shape, sharpen combinations and give the coaching staff clarity on selection before squads are locked in. The occasion carries the additional edge that a Nordic derby always produces regardless of context.

Norway head into this game in steady if unspectacular form. Their most recent outing was a goalless home draw against Switzerland in March. Prior to that, a 2-1 defeat away at the Netherlands in a competitive friendly. Before that, one of their finest results of the recent cycle — a stunning 4-1 away win in Italy in World Cup qualifying. Earlier in this run, a comfortable 4-1 home win over Estonia kept their qualifying momentum rolling. The sequence opened with a 1-1 home draw against New Zealand. Two wins from five, with the result in Italy standing out as the headline performance, reflects a Norway squad that is capable of something exceptional but has not always produced that level consistently.

Sweden arrive in Oslo having closed out their qualifying campaign with real momentum. Their most recent outing was a 3-2 home win over Poland in World Cup qualifying. Prior to that, a 3-1 away win in Ukraine — a significant result that underlined their quality on the road. Before that, a 1-1 home draw with Slovenia. Earlier in this run, a heavy 4-1 away defeat to Switzerland was a setback. The sequence opened with a 1-0 home loss to Kosovo. Two wins from five tells only part of the story — the two most recent results, back-to-back qualifying victories, suggest a side that has found form at the right moment.

Sweden’s injury situation is the more significant of the two heading into this fixture. They arrive without Holm, Stroud, Abdi Ali, Gudmundsson and Starfelt — five players ruled out across attacking, midfield and defensive positions. The loss of Starfelt at the back and Gudmundsson in midfield is particularly notable for a side preparing for the World Cup. Norway report no injury concerns and will take to the field at full strength.

The head-to-head record favours Norway, who have won two of the last five meetings, with three draws and no wins for Sweden. Most recently, Norway won 3-2 at home in the Nations League in June 2022. In the previous encounter, Norway won 2-1 away at Sweden, also in the Nations League, days earlier in June 2022.

In Norway, the match is live on TV2 Sport and available via TV 2 Play. In Sweden, viewers can follow on Viaplay Sweden. The game is also available in the UK and Ireland on Amazon Prime Video, and in Germany on DAZN Germany.

Injuries

Norway: No injuries reported.

Sweden: Holm (Out), Stroud (Out), Abdi Ali (Out), Gudmundsson (Out), Starfelt (Out)

Sweden carry a significant injury burden into this fixture. Five absentees spanning the defensive line, midfield and attack leave meaningful gaps in their squad, and the absence of Starfelt at centre-back in particular will test their depth in a key position. Norway are fully fit and hold a clear advantage in terms of squad availability heading into Monday’s match.

Germany vs Finland

Competition – International Friendly

Stadium: MEWA ARENA

Date: 31stMay 2026

Kick-off time – 19:45 GMT

Sunday evening at the MEWA ARENA in Mainz sees Germany round off their pre-World Cup preparation schedule with a home friendly against Finland. With the tournament on the horizon, this is the last opportunity for the German squad to fine-tune their approach and give the coaching staff a final look at fringe candidates before the squad is finalised. Finland, who have had a difficult qualifying campaign of their own, arrive as opponents who will be eager to test themselves against one of the tournament favourites on home soil.

Germany head into this game in the form of a side that is ready and building. Their most recent outing was a 2-1 home win over Ghana in March — a solid result against lively African opposition that kept the momentum going. Prior to that, a stunning 4-3 away win in Switzerland, a performance that underlined their attacking quality and ability to score goals freely. Before that, a dominant 6-0 home win over Slovakia in World Cup qualifying. Earlier in this run, a 2-0 away win in Luxembourg. The sequence opened with a 1-0 away win in Northern Ireland. Five wins from five, across qualifying and friendly football, with a goal difference that reflects a side scoring freely at both ends of the calendar. Germany arrive at the World Cup with confidence running through the entire squad.

Finland’s form has been considerably more patchy. Their most recent outing was a 1-1 draw away at Cape Verde in March — a result that reflects the kind of inconsistency that has defined their recent international calendar. Prior to that, a 2-0 away win over New Zealand. Before that, a 4-0 home win over Andorra. Earlier in this run, a 1-0 home defeat to Malta in World Cup qualifying — one of the more damaging results of their campaign. The sequence opened with a heavy 4-0 away defeat to the Netherlands. Two wins from five, with losses against Malta and the Netherlands and a draw against Cape Verde, tells the story of a squad that remains limited in its ceiling against stronger opposition.

The gap in quality between these two nations is significant and the statistics bear that out. Germany have been prolific and defensively sound across their recent fixtures. Finland have been capable of beating lesser opposition but have struggled every time the level steps up, and a trip to face the Germans in Mainz on Sunday evening represents exactly the kind of test that has exposed their limitations throughout this qualifying cycle.

The head-to-head record between these sides is slim — only three meetings in the historical record — and it favours Germany, who have won one of the three encounters with two draws and no wins for Finland. Most recently, Germany won 2-0 at home in August 2016. The previous encounter was a 1-1 draw when Germany hosted in October 2009.

In Germany, the match is live on ZDF. In Finland, viewers can follow on YLE TV2 and V Sport Premium. The game is also available in the United States on Fox Sports 2 and fuboTV, and in Sweden on Viaplay Sweden.

Paris Saint-Germain vs Arsenal Preview

Paris Saint-Germain vs Arsenal

Competition – 2026 Champions League Final

Stadium: Puskás Aréna

Date: 30th May 2026

Kick-off time – 17:00 GMT

Saturday afternoon in Budapest delivers the defining European club fixture of the season. Paris Saint-Germain and Arsenal meet at the Puskás Aréna in the Champions League Final — a showpiece occasion that brings together the Premier League champions and the dominant force in French football, in what is one of the most eagerly anticipated finals in years. For Arsenal, it represents the culmination of what has been an extraordinary domestic and European season. For PSG, it is another opportunity to add the one trophy that has consistently eluded them.

Arsenal arrive in Hungary in the form of champions. Their most recent outing was a 2-1 win away at Crystal Palace on the final day of the Premier League season. Prior to that, a 1-0 home win over Burnley. Before that, a 1-0 away win at West Ham. Earlier in this run, a 1-0 home win over Atlético Madrid in the Champions League knockout stages secured their place in this final. The sequence opened with a 3-0 home win over Fulham. Five wins from five — all of them clean sheet victories, all of them achieved with composure and control — reflects a side that has hit a level of consistency that few clubs manage across an entire campaign. Arsenal have conceded just six goals across their Champions League run, and a defence that has proven almost impenetrable at this stage of the season is the foundation on which this final challenge is built.

PSG’s form heading into the final has been less clinical. Their most recent outing was a 2-1 defeat away at Paris FC in Ligue 1 — an unexpected setback that will have raised questions in the days since. Prior to that, a 2-0 away win at Lens. Before that, a 1-0 home win over Brest. Earlier in this run, a 1-1 draw away at Bayern Munich in the Champions League semifinal second leg — a result that was enough to send them through on aggregate and underlined their ability to hold their nerve in the highest-stakes moments. The sequence opened with a 2-2 home draw against Lorient. Two wins, two draws and a defeat from five is a mixed return, but the quality in PSG’s squad — and their experience in knockout football — makes them formidable regardless of their most recent domestic result.

The statistics from the Champions League campaigns reflect the contrasting styles. PSG have scored 44 goals in the competition and conceded 22 — a goal difference of +22. Arsenal have scored 29 and conceded just 6 — a goal difference of +23. Both sides have dominated their routes to the final, but Arsenal’s defensive record is remarkable. PSG’s firepower is the tournament’s most consistent attacking force. Something has to give on Saturday.

The head-to-head record is perfectly balanced — two wins each and one draw across the last five meetings, all of which have come in the Champions League. Most recently, PSG won 2-1 at home in May 2025. In the previous encounter, PSG won 1-0 away at Arsenal in April 2025 — a result that confirmed PSG’s progression in that season’s knockout stages.

In the United Kingdom and Ireland, the match is live on TNT Sports 1 and available to stream via HBO Max. In the United States, viewers can watch on CBS and Paramount+. In France, the final is live on Canal+ France and M6, and in Germany on ZDF and DAZN.

Possible line-ups:

Paris Saint-Germain (4-3-3)

Safonov, Zaïre-Emery, Marquinhos, Beraldo, Hernández, Neves, Vitinha, Doué, Ruiz, Kvaratskhelia, Ramos

Arsenal (4-2-3-1)

Raya, Calafiori, Gabriel, Saliba, Mosquera, Lewis-Skelly, Rice, Trossard, Eze, Saka, Gyökeres

Injuries

Paris Saint-Germain: Chevalier (Out), Ndjantou (Out)

Arsenal: White (Out), Timber (Doubtful)

Both sides carry injury concerns that could influence the starting lineup. PSG lose Chevalier in goal and Ndjantou from their attacking options — the goalkeeper absence is significant if it affects their first-choice selection between the sticks. Arsenal lose White at right-back for the season, with Timber carrying a muscle concern that adds uncertainty to their backline. The two sides are broadly evenly matched in terms of disruption to their ideal XI.

South Africa vs Nicaragua Preview

Gamingtips Staff — Mon, 25 May 2026 12:45:45 +0000

South Africa vs Nicaragua

Competition – International Friendly

Stadium: Orlando Stadium

Date: 29th May 2026

Kick-off time – 17:00 GMT

Friday afternoon at the Orlando Stadium sees South Africa host Nicaragua in a pre-summer international friendly as South Africa look to build momentum ahead of the World Cup. Bafana Bafana welcome Central American opposition in what shapes up as a workmanlike occasion — neither side arrives carrying outstanding form, and both will be eager to use this fixture to sharpen their preparations rather than simply complete the calendar.

South Africa head into this game in unconvincing domestic form. Their most recent outing was a 1-2 home defeat to Panama in a friendly at the end of March. Prior to that, a 1-1 home draw against Panama in the first of the two-match series. Before that, a 1-2 home defeat to Cameroon in the Africa Cup of Nations group stage. Earlier in this run, a 3-2 away win over Zimbabwe in the Africa Cup of Nations round of 16 was their standout result — a hard-fought victory that showed their capacity to deliver in elimination football. The sequence opened with a 1-0 away defeat to Egypt in the group stage. One win from five, with three defeats at home across the run, points to a side that has struggled for consistency on their own patch and will be seeking a response on Friday evening.

Nicaragua arrive in Johannesburg with equally modest recent form. Their most recent outing was a 3-1 defeat away at Russia in March. Prior to that, a 2-0 away defeat to Haiti in World Cup qualifying. Before that, a 2-0 home win over Honduras in the same competition — their sole positive result across this entire run. Earlier in this run, a 4-1 away defeat to Costa Rica. The sequence opened with a 3-0 home loss to Haiti in October 2025. One win from five, with four defeats and a goal difference that underlines the gap between Nicaragua and most of their opponents, reflects a squad that continues to develop but has a significant distance to travel before competing at the highest levels.

On paper, South Africa hold a clear advantage — experience in continental competition, superior squad depth, and the benefit of home support in Orlando. The Africa Cup of Nations participation, even in a group stage that produced mixed results, represents a level of competitive football that Nicaragua has not accessed. Bafana Bafana will be expected to control the tempo and create enough chances to win comfortably, but the challenge is to perform with intensity and purpose rather than simply go through the motions.

There is no head-to-head history between these two sides. Friday’s fixture is the first time South Africa and Nicaragua have ever met, which means there is no historical context to reference and everything rests on current form and quality across the pitch.

South Africa carry one notable concern with Aubrey Modiba rated as doubtful through a muscle injury. Nicaragua report no injury concerns. The doubtful status of Modiba adds a minor selection question for the hosts, but the overall depth available to South Africa means the impact is limited.

Injuries

South Africa: Modiba (Doubtful)

Nicaragua: No injuries reported.

South Africa carry one concern with Modiba doubtful through a muscle issue, but the depth available across the squad means his potential absence does not significantly weaken the starting setup. Nicaragua arrive with a clean bill of health.

Republic of Ireland vs Qatar Preview

Gamingtips Staff — Mon, 25 May 2026 12:41:37 +0000

Republic of Ireland vs Qatar

Competition – International Friendly

Stadium: Aviva Stadium

Date: 28th May 2026

Kick-off time – 19:45 GMT

Thursday evening at the Aviva Stadium offers the Republic of Ireland a final home outing before the summer as they prepare for next year after missing out on the World Cup. Qatar are the visitors for what shapes up as an entertaining pre-tournament workout, with Ireland carrying genuine momentum from their World Cup qualifying campaign and Qatar arriving as a side with less to prove on the international stage but still keen to test themselves against European opposition.

Ireland’s recent form makes for encouraging reading. Their most recent outing was a dominant 5-0 home win over Grenada in May — a confidence-boosting performance that underlined the attacking quality available. Prior to that, a 0-0 home draw against North Macedonia in a March friendly reflected a more cautious, controlled afternoon. Before that, a 2-2 draw away at Czechia in World Cup qualifying — a result that cost Ireland on penalties and ended their qualification hopes through that route. Earlier in this run, a superb 3-2 away win in Hungary. The sequence opened with a 2-0 home win over Portugal in November 2025, one of the most significant results in recent Irish football. Three wins from five, with competitive performances at the highest level, reflects a group that has grown considerably over the past two years and arrives at this fixture in strong shape.

Qatar’s form has been inconsistent. Their most recent outing was a 1-2 home defeat to Zimbabwe in a November friendly — a result that reflected poorly on a side expected to perform against lower-ranked opposition. Prior to that, a 2-1 home win over the United Arab Emirates in Asian qualifying. Before that, a 0-0 draw away at Oman in the same competition. Earlier in this run, a heavy 4-1 home defeat to Russia. The sequence opened with a 2-2 home draw against Bahrain. One win from five, with two losses and two draws, does not make for a compelling record, and coming to Dublin on Thursday represents a significant step up in quality.

The head-to-head record favours Ireland on results, though only two meetings exist between the sides. Ireland won 4-0 at home when the two sides met in October 2021. The previous encounter saw the sides draw 1-1 when Qatar hosted in March 2021.

The Aviva Stadium crowd will provide a wall of noise behind a side that has found a coherent identity and a settled squad structure. For Qatar, this is about gaining experience against a well-organised European nation ahead of their own summer commitments. Ireland will look to control the game from the outset and build on the fluency shown in the Grenada performance.

In Ireland, the match is live on RTE 2 and available to stream via the RTE Player. In the United States, viewers can watch on Fox Sports 2 and fuboTV. The game is also available in Germany on DAZN Germany, and in Norway on TV 2 Play.

Egypt vs Russia

Competition – International Friendly

Stadium: New Administrative Capital Stadium

Date: 28th May 2026

Kick-off time – 19:00 GMT

Thursday evening’s international friendly at the New Administrative Capital Stadium sees Egypt host Russia in a fixture that carries the weight of summer preparation for both nations. With the World Cup approaching, friendlies at this stage of the calendar carry more significance than usual — squad depth is being tested, tactical ideas are being refined, and players are making their case for inclusion. For both sets of supporters, the quality and intensity of this encounter will offer clues about where each team currently stands.

Egypt head into this game off the back of an unconvincing end to the Africa Cup of Nations and a mixed March window. Their most recent outing was a goalless draw away at Spain in a high-quality friendly that showed their defensive resilience but limited attacking threat against top opposition. Prior to that, an excellent 4-0 away win over Saudi Arabia demonstrated a more clinical edge. Before that, a 0-0 home defeat — on penalties — to Nigeria in the Africa Cup of Nations knockout ended their tournament hopes. Earlier in this run, a 1-0 defeat away at Senegal in the group stage represented a setback. The sequence opened with a 3-2 home win over Ivory Coast in their opening Africa Cup of Nations group match. Two wins from five, with their best performance coming in Riyadh, points to a squad with genuine quality but inconsistency in the big moments.

Russia arrive at the New Administrative Capital with an extended run of friendly action behind them. Their most recent outing was a 0-0 home draw against Mali. Prior to that, a comfortable 3-1 home win over Nicaragua. Before that, a 2-0 home defeat against Chile in November was a sobering result. Earlier in this run, a 1-1 home draw with Peru. The sequence opened with a 3-0 home win over Bolivia in October 2025. Two wins and two draws from five, with their opposition drawn largely from outside the top tier of international football, means their level against a stronger African nation on Thursday will be a genuine test.

The head-to-head record between these two sides is limited. Their only known meeting saw Russia win 3-1 when Egypt were the away side at the 2018 World Cup group stage. That result remains the sole point of reference between the two nations, and with nearly eight years separating this fixture from that one, the historical data offers little meaningful guidance.

Egypt will draw on home support and the familiarity of playing in front of their own fans — an atmosphere that has historically made the New Administrative Capital Stadium a difficult venue for visiting nations. Russia will need to be organised and purposeful from the outset if they are to cause problems for a well-drilled Egyptian defensive unit.

In Egypt, the match is live on ON Sport 1. In Russia, viewers can follow on Match Premier and matchtv.ru. Fans in the United Arab Emirates can watch on Sharjah Sports, and in the United States the game is available on fuboTV and FOX Deportes.

Injuries

Egypt: Soliman (Out), Abdelmonem (Out)

Russia: Komlichenko (Out), Golovin (Out), Borisko (Out), Glebov (Out)

Russia carry the more significant injury concerns ahead of this fixture. Losing Golovin — one of their most creative and experienced players — is a notable blow in the attacking midfield zone, and with three further absentees including Komlichenko up front and Borisko in defence, the depth of their available squad will be tested. Egypt lose two players to muscle injuries but the impact is comparatively manageable.
