What channel is Northern Ireland v Hungary Nations League match on? TV coverage, live stream and kick-off time

Northern Ireland return to Nations League action on Monday evening as Michael O'Neill's side host Hungary.

The home, who failed to qualify for the World Cup in the summer, were promoted from League C to League B last season.

They kicked off their campaign against Georgia on Friday night and O'Neill's men are also partnered with Hungary and Ukraine in League B, Group B2.

Northern Ireland went unbeaten in five of their six League C games last time out (won three, drawn two) but it remains to be seen whether they can replicate that form in League B.

Hungary, who also didn't feature at the 2026 World Cup, were relegated from League A last campaign after winning just one of their eight outings but Marco Rossi's side will be confident of picking up more points this time out.
