How to Watch Slovakia vs Northern Ireland: Stream FIFA World Cup 2026 Qualifying Live, TV Channel

Slovakia is clinging onto the thought of automatic qualification to the 2026 World Cup as it hosts Northern Ireland on Friday

Slovakia has been the surprise package in UEFA qualifying Group A and could still tie down an automatic berth at the 2026 World Cup but will need to nab all three points at home to Northern Ireland on Friday to stand a realistic chance at doing so. Francesco Calzona’s side currently sit level on points with Germany at the top of the pool and boast an identical record of three wins from four games. It just so happens their sole defeat came at the hands of Northern Ireland earlier in the qualifying campaign, making this one personal as the Falcons eye their revenge against familiar opposition.

The Slovaks were devastated to suffer a 2-0 defeat in Belfast last month but can still make up for that miss by winning on Friday to at least remain level at the Group A summit.

Calzona & Co will be praying Germany drop points in Luxembourg in the pool’s other Friday fixture, though the chances of that are incredibly slim=m given the Red Lions are yet to earn a point to date.

Northern Ireland had dreams of upsetting Germany last month to move level at the top of Group A, but Newcastle striker Nick Woltemade had other plans and scored the only goal of the game:

The qualifying run is far from over for Michael O’Neill’s side, either, and they can draw level on points with Slovakia if they manage to do the double over the Falcons, though defeat would mean they can no longer make it to North America next year.

That can’t be ruled out just yet, though repeating their heroics from October will be a lot tougher in Kosice, having also lost on Slovakian soil during the 2010 World Cup qualifying run.

Both teams have a player suspended for this one as as Ondrej Duda and Ethan Galbraith sit out for Slovakia and Northern Ireland, respectively.
