Nations League

The Nations League brings together 54 national teams, and this page collects the previews built around its fixtures, sitting alongside the competition's own table and fixtures. Previews are published for selected matches, each one a full breakdown of that fixture rather than a short note.

The 2026 edition runs across the same structure the Nations League always has, grouping national sides for a run of matches that feed into the wider table. Positions, points and scorers move every round, which is why they live on the standings page rather than here.

Each prediction is a full preview of one fixture: a predicted scoreline, a headline tip plus five further picks across other markets, a three-leg bet builder, team news for both sides, a predicted line-up each, and where to watch. It's prepared around 22 hours before kick-off and updated if the team news changes before the match, carrying a named writer's byline (the full list sits on the authors page). The same page then stays live once the game finishes, turning into the record of how those tips did.

Grading is fixed too. Every tip is marked hit or miss, misses are never quietly removed, odds are locked at whatever was printed when the preview went up, and results are worked out on a flat £10 stake per tip, with voided bets left out and a bet builder counted as one bet at the combined price of its three legs. The running numbers behind that live on the tip record page, and the full process is set out on the how we predict page.
