Top spot in Group B2 at the UEFA Nations League will be decided when Hungary play host to Northern Ireland at Puskas Arena on Tuesday night. Only two goals have been conceded between these sides coming into the group finale, and our prediction is that clear-cut chances will be at a premium in this one.
Hungary are firmly in the mix to earn promotion back to League A. They are one point behind the group leaders, Northern Ireland, meaning a victory here will see them win Group B2.
The Magyars enter this match off the back of a 2-0 victory over Georgia on Saturday and are now on a three-match win streak. They have scored five and conceded just two goals in this competition.
The hosts have split their two UNL home games this season, one win and one loss. However, that defeat is the only one they have suffered on home soil in 2026 (W4 D1).
Meanwhile, Northern Ireland are one of four teams in League B that are still unbeaten after five games. They need just a draw (or a win) to secure their promotion to League A next season.
The Green and White Army edged Ukraine to a 1-0 victory at home on Saturday and are now the only team in League B that has not conceded a single goal across five matches in this competition.
The visitors have won both their UNL away games this term and beat this opponent 2-1 in their last visit to Hungary back in 2014.
