Match Facts

  • Northern Ireland are unbeaten in their four previous meetings with Belarus (W3 D1), keeping a clean sheet in three of those games.

  • Belarus have lost both of their previous two away games in Northern Ireland, losing 3-0 in a May 2016 friendly and 2-1 in a March 2019 European Championship qualifier.

  • Northern Ireland won 5-0 last time out against Bulgaria, having scored only four goals across their six competitive fixtures prior – it was their biggest win since September 1991 (5-0 v Faroe Islands).

  • After winning seven of their first 11 games in the UEFA Nations League (D3 L1), Belarus have since won just one of their 11 matches in the competition (D6 L4).

  • After failing to win any of their first 14 games in the UEFA Nations League (D4 L10), Northern Ireland have since won three of six matches in the competition (D1 L2).

  • Belarus are unbeaten in their last four away gams across all competitions (W2 D2), never before going five in a row on the road without defeat.

  • Isaac Price (21y 19d) became Northern Ireland’s youngest ever hat-trick scorer last month against Bulgaria and could be the first player to score in back-to-back appearances for the nation since Josh Magennis in June 2019.

  • Teenager Pierce Charles has kept a clean sheet in his two appearances for Northern Ireland and could be the first goalkeeper to keep a clean sheet in three straight games for the Green and White Army since Michael McGovern in September 2017.
