England's UEFA Nations League fixture schedule confirmed

England will kick-off their 2026-27 UEFA Nations League campaign at home against Spain in September, following confirmation of their group stage fixtures.

The Three Lions were drawn out with Spain, Croatia and Czechia in League A, group three at the draw in Brussels on Thursday evening, with games scheduled to take place across the autumn of 2026.

It starts with four games in the newly-extended September and October international window, which also sees Thomas Tuchel's side travel to play Croatia (behind closed doors due to UEFA sanction) and Czechia away before hosting Czechia at home.

The group will then be rounded off with two games in November at home to Croatia before they finish off with a trip to Spain.

Further information on ticket sale dates, venues and away match details for England Supporters Travel Club members will be communicated in due course.

All games will kick-off at 7.45pm GMT/BST, aside from the game in Croatia which will be 6pm CET or 5pm BST, subject to change.
