Portugal v Wales: kick-off time, channel and venue for Nations League opener | OneFootball

Portugal host Wales in the Nations League group-stage opener, with broadcast details and key context below.

L'Équipe notes that the double champions, 2019 and 2025, return to action after a World Cup round of 16 exit to Spain, 0-1, with Cristiano Ronaldo still involved.

Now in his 23rd year with the national team, Portugal's record appearance maker, 233 caps, will work under his sixth head coach, Jorge Jesus, who previously managed him at Al-Nassr in 2025-2026.

Wales have struggled since the nations last met in the Euro 2016 semi-finals, a 2-0 defeat. Recent results include a World Cup play-off semi-final loss to Bosnia, 1-1 then 2-4 on penalties, draws with Ghana and Northern Ireland, and a friendly defeat to Romania on 6 June.

The match kicks off at 20:45 on Thursday 24 September at Estadio José Alvalade in Lisbon, and will be shown on la chaîne L'Équipe.
