England to start 2020 Nations League away to Iceland as UEFA confirms new schedule

The competition has been forced to shift dates in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic

England will kick off their next Nations League campaign in Iceland on September 5 after UEFA revealed a revised schedule for the competition.

The tournament, which only began in 2018 and was won for the first time by Portugal last year, has slightly shifted the dates of some of their group stage games following the coronavirus pandemic.

While the virus could still prevent the tournament from going ahead should further outbreaks emerge, UEFA has locked in a new schedule to accommodate changes to the international windows.
