Follow live text commentary, score updates and match stats from Republic of Ireland v Sweden and Portugal vs Northern Ireland in the UEFA Women's Championship Qualifiers.
Ireland welcome Sweden to the Aviva Stadium knowing that, realistically, a win is needed to keep any hope of automatic qualification for Euro 2025 alive. Narrow defeats to France and England see Eileen Gleeson’s side bottom of the group.
Sweden won the bronze medal at last year’s World Cup but have started this campaign slowly themselves. After drawing with England in the opener, they, like Ireland, fell 1-0 to France so will be looking to bounce back. Since their 100% UEFA Nations League campaign in 2023, Ireland have gone four without a win while Peter Gerhardsson’s side will be hoping to get back to the form that saw them beat Bosnia-Herzegovina 10-0 on aggregate in their Nations League relegation/promotion playoff in February
While Katie McCabe is in the lineup after recovering from a game with Arsenal in Australia on Sunday, Denise O’Sullivan and Ruesha Littlejohn are not fit to play. For the star-studded Swedes, McCabe’s Arsenal teammate Stena Blackstenius misses out but there is quality all over the pitch.Brosnan, Patton, Hayes, Lo.
