Northern Ireland's Uefa Nations League match against Ukraine will be played at the Anton Malatinsky Stadium in Trnava, Slovakia, on Friday, 2 October. Since Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Ukraine have played home matches outside their country, utilizing venues in the Czech Republic, Poland, Spain, and Germany. The Trnava stadium, which hosted Ukraine's 1-0 win over Malta in June 2023 for Euro 2024 qualifying, is among the approved venues.

Uefa permits these arrangements provided regulations are met. This fixture is the third of Ukraine's four matches in this international break, following a 1-0 win in Hungary and a game in Georgia. Ukraine will then face Northern Ireland before a home match against Hungary in Trnava.

In November, Ukraine host Georgia in Trnava. Additionally, Ukrainian clubs like Shakhtar Donetsk have played home Champions League matches at Chelsea's Stamford Bridge in recent years. This article is from BBC Sport's Ask Me Anything team.
