This will be a first encounter with Ukraine for the hosts – who will also be absent from the World Cup, missing the tournament for the fifth edition running. Ireland have lost only two of their last 17 home games – while the visitors have not lost back-to-back matches since November 2020. Team news Kenny might well choose to change things up for this one and recall the likes of prodigious goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu and midfield playmaker Conor Hourihane to the starting 11. He could also hand international debuts to Blackpool's CJ Hamilton fellow winger Festy Ebosele - who recently moved from Derby to Udinese. Premier League representation in the Ukraine squad comes from Captain Andriy Yarmolenko - whose own goal proved decisive against Wales - is also a familiar face, having spent the last four seasons with Kick-off is at 7:45pm BST on Wednesday 8 June, and the game is being shown live on Premier Sports 2 in the UK.

Ireland enjoy home advantage when Ukraine swing by on Wednesday for a clash in the UEFA Nations League. The way we look at it, both teams will aim to do their best. The hosts need to bounce back from an opening-round defeat, while the away side want to recover from missing out on a 2022 World Cup spot by claiming all 3 points in Dublin. Current form and previous encounters between Ireland and Ukraine Ireland with decent results Ireland have seen it all in their last 3 matches, which brought home 4 points. They first shared the points in a 2-2 draw with Belgium, before claiming 3 points in a 1-0 win against Lithuania. Unfortunately for them, this was followed by a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Armenia in their Nations League opener. Ukraine show promising form Ukraine look well suited to take on any opponent at the moment, as their last 3 matches saw them win twice. They started off by downing Bosnia-Herzegovina 0-2, then Scotland in a 1-3 win, before losing 1-0 to Wales in last weekend’s World Cup playoff final.

Ireland vs Ukraine UEFA Nations League Date: Wednesday, 8 June 2022 Kick-off at 19:45 UK / 20:45 CET Venue: Aviva Stadium. Ireland is set to host Ukraine in a match of League B in Group 1 at UEFA Nations League. They will be locking horns this Wednesday at Aviva Stadium in Dublin. The Irish side will be wanting a better result here following the 0-1 Nations League losing effort in their last game against Armenia. They played two 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers losing 3-2 away to Serbia before losing at home 1-0 to Luxembourg. Ireland then ultimately fail to qualify for the World Cup as they ended the campaign with a third-place finish in the group. The hosts have been stingy, resulting in the number of goals that have flown into the back of their net over the course of their previous 6 outings stands just 3. On the other side, Ukraine’s best performance in the UEFA European Championship was in 2020, where they reached the quarter-finals for the first time. The visitors faced Scotland in the Group A World Cup Playoff semifinals which has been postponed in March to June after Russia invaded the country in February. They won that game by 3-1 at Hampden Park, but ultimately lost by 1-0 to Wales in an emotional playoff final, thus slipping the chance to play the game in the grandest stage of fall. They have a shaky defense and they have seen getting scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, conceding 5 goals in total. These two sides have never crossed paths each other and th...

However, Ukraine found the equaliser early in the second half through Artem Dovbyk's tap-in. The Republic move a point clear of bottom-placed Armenia in Group B1. Ukraine are top, however, having taken seven points from their three Nations League games in an impressive response to missing out on World Cup qualification. For the Republic, it was a hard-earned point in Poland - where the game was played with Ukraine unable to host games in their own country as a result of Russia's invasion. And it represented an encouraging conclusion to a quadruple-header that began with deflating defeats by Armenia and Ukraine. Those results - especially the shock defeat by Armenia in Yerevan - had prompted fresh criticism of Stephen Kenny, but the Republic boss can be heartened by the manner in which his team have closed out the window with four points from a possible six. Collins opens Irish account in spectacular style Having beaten Scotland in comprehensive fashion on Saturday, the Republic played with confidence, tempo and organisation against a full-strength Ukraine team which showed seven changes from the second-string side they fielded in Dublin last week. But even without the injured Michael Obafemi, who stole the show against the Scots, the Republic managed to unnerve the Ukraine backline, Jason Knight fashioning the first Irish chance when he clipped a cross to Troy Parrott at the back post only for the striker to misjudge his header. While Parrott again looked sharp in attack a...
