Sweden's complete fixture list for the 2026/27 UEFA Nations League has been confirmed. Six group stage matches against Romania, Poland and Bosnia and Herzegovina await between late September and mid-November.
The schedule was published by UEFA on Tuesday, placing Sweden in League B, Group 4. The tournament begins on 24 September and concludes on 17 November. For Sweden, it starts with a home match against Romania on Friday 25 September. Just three days later, on Monday 28 September, another home fixture awaits as Poland visit.
The schedule match by match
Following the two opening home games comes a double-header of away fixtures. First, the team travels to Bosnia and Herzegovina on Friday 2 October. Then it's Romania again, this time away, on Monday 5 October. After a break of over a month, Nations League action resumes in November. Sweden host Bosnia and Herzegovina at home on Friday 13 November. The group concludes with an away match against Poland on Tuesday 17 November. All matches are scheduled for a 20:45 CET kick-off.
This clear calendar provides the coaching staff and players with a solid framework for planning and preparations ahead of the autumn. It's a key part of the rebuild after a difficult spring for the national team. Sweden currently sit third in their World Cup qualifying group with four points from three games. Their most recent match ended in a heavy 3-0 defeat to France on 30 June.
A fresh chance in League B
Competing in League B represents an opportunity to build form and confidence. The group opponents, Romania, Poland and Bosnia and Herzegovina, present a challenge at a level where Sweden has a good chance to compete for top spot. A high finish in the group would open the door to a promotion playoff to League A, a clear objective for the head coach and squad.
The opening match against Romania on 25 September presents an immediate chance to reverse the trend after the loss to France. It's a fixture players and supporters can already look forward to and plan for.
With a goal difference of zero after scoring seven and conceding seven in World Cup qualifying, defensive stability will be key to success in the upcoming Nations League matches. Recent form, with one win, two draws and two losses in the last five games, shows a team searching for consistency. A strong Nations League campaign could provide the momentum needed for the World Cup push. To track the team's development and statistics, visit our stats page.
