What channel is Luxembourg v Northern Ireland World Cup qualifier on? TV coverage, live stream and kick-off time
Check out how to watch Luxembourg v Northern Ireland in the World Cup qualifiers, including TV channel, radio coverage and kick-off time.
Northern Ireland will hope to make a winning start to World Cup qualifying when they travel to face Luxembourg on Thursday evening.
There has been plenty of talk about the new generation of players coming through under manager Michael O'Neill and captain Trai Hume, but it is now time to show they are ready to produce the goods.
O'Neill's side have been drawn alongside Germany, Slovakia, and Thursday's hosts in Group A. The winners will qualify directly for next summer's tournament in North America, while the second-place team earns a spot in the play-offs.
The visitors are without a host of starters, including goalkeeper Pierce Charles and centre-back Dan Ballard, but should still be too strong for Luxembourg, who are ranked 21 places below them and are winless in their last seven competitive fixtures.
Northern Ireland will know not to underestimate their hosts, however, given the embarrassing 3-2 loss they suffered to them 12 years ago in O'Neill's first spell at the helm.
