The Republic of Ireland and Israel meet again in another politically-charged Nations League clash.

This encounter takes place in Serbia and comes a week after Ireland’s 3-0 win followed days of doubt over whether their squad would fulfil the fixture.

Manager Heimir Hallgrimsson has insisted that the focus is on football, though his side’s draw over Austria in Dublin on Thursday was briefly disrupted by protestors calling for a boycott of this game.

Israel, meanwhile, drew 0-0 with Kosovo between their two meetings with Ireland.

The Nations League game is due to kick off at 7.45pm BST on Sunday 4 October at TSC Arena in Backa Topola, Serbia.

Viewers in the United Kingdom can watch the game via Amazon Prime Video pay-per-view.

Defender James Abankwah is suspended for the Republic of Ireland, with Heimir Hallgrimsson likely to make changes elsewhere, too. Dara O’Shea’s partner is due to give birth, though he could still feature.

For Israel, Southampton goalkeeper Daniel Peretz has returned to Championship club after suffering a groin injury. Omri Glazer provides an alternative of relative experience.
