    Northern Ireland v Greece (19:45 BST)

    It's been a long, gruelling season - so it's only natural that we have four Nations League games in the space of 10 days!

    Let's be honest, the June fixtures are hardly everyone's cup of tea as Northern Ireland start their campaign against Greece this evening.

    However, there are reasons to be optimistic for Ian Baraclough's men as a squad packed with youthful talent and exuberance can put Northern Ireland on course for a play-off for Euro 2024.

    Greece are the visitors to Windsor Park this evening, and for many the mind will go back to 2015 when NI triumphed on a famous night as they qualified for Euro 2016.

    It won't be quite as big an occasion this evening but with Northern Ireland yet to win a Nations League match, this could be a big opportunity to put that right in front of a home crowd.

    Thanks for joining us!
