Northern Ireland will host Ukraine next in the UEFA Nations League, a match that holds a lot of importance for both nations. In Group B2, Northern Ireland sit top, four points ahead of third-placed Ukraine. In the first meeting between the two nations, Ukraine lost 3-0 and away from home, our prediction goes for another defeat.
Northern Ireland have given a strong performance in the season, but they may need to go all the way to the final day. Hungary, in second place, are just a point away and would punish any slips here.
NI felt two points were dropped in the last game as they drew 0-0 at home with Georgia last time out.
Ukraine avoided defeat in their two previous visits to Belfast, one a draw and the other a win. That, though, was a while back, and having lost heavily in their recent meeting, they come here as underdogs again.
Despite ranking better than Northern Ireland, Ukraine trail their hosts and must win here to have a chance of eventually rising to the promotion places
. The visitors have, however, failed to win since their Round 1 victory over Hungary. Goals have also dried up at Ukraine, with the team netting just twice in four games. In their last outing, they dropped to third after falling 2-1 against Hungary last time out.

Our Northern Ireland vs Ukraine Prediction
Northern Ireland are not only focused on promotion; they also seem to have warmed up well for a first-ever home win against Ukraine. They thrashed Ukraine 3-0 in the first meeting and bring into this game a strong defensive record.
At home in the last four matches, Northern Ireland are unbeaten, winning twice, and given their opponents’ performance in attack, a home clean sheet could be witnessed here. Our prediction for Northern Ireland v Ukraine is for Northern Ireland to win to nil.
