Nations League: How to follow Wales' Nations League matches on the BBC

Following the disappointment of missing out on this summer's World Cup, Craig Bellamy's Wales side return to competitive action in the Uefa Nations League.

Wales begin their League A Group Four Campaign with four matches in 10 days, starting at Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal in Lisbon on Thursday, 24 September (19:45 BST).

They then travel to Denmark on Sunday (17:00 BST), before hosting Norway and Denmark at Cardiff City Stadium on 1 October and 4 October respectively.

Here's everything you need to know about the upcoming fixtures.

Bellamy's team's four matches against Portugal, Denmark and Norway will be shown live across BBC One and BBC Two Wales, BBC iPlayer and the BBC Sport Website and app.

You can listen to live commentary on BBC Sounds via BBC Radio Wales and BBC Radio Cymru.

Commentary is also available on BBC Sport Online and via BBC Radio Wales on FM/DAB & DTV.

Live text commentary will be available on the BBC Sport website and app.

Two of Wales' Nations League opponents enjoyed relative World Cup success this summer.

Portugal reached the last 16 before being edged out by eventual winners Spain thanks to a late Mikel Merino strike and Norway were beaten 2-1 by England in the quarter-finals courtesy of a Jude Bellingham brace.

Both sides also boast some of world football's biggest names. Erling Haaland continues to spearhead Norway's attack, having scored 62 goals in 54 international appearances.

Portugal, meanwhile, have Ronaldo after his former Al-Ittihad head coach Jorge Jesus selected the 41-year-old in his squad.

Ronaldo could face Wales for the first time since his header put Portugal on their way to a 2-0 win in the Euros semi-final in 2016.

Denmark will also provide a stern test. Although they failed to qualify for the World Cup, the Danes are ranked 21st in the world and possess quality throughout their squad.

This includes Napoli striker Rasmus Hojlund, Porto midfielder Victor Froholdt and Brentford playmaker Mikkel Damsgaard.

Denmark have won each of their last three encounters with the Dragons, most recently in the last 16 of Euro 2020.

Norway are a less familiar opponent. Wales have not faced them since 2011, when goals from Gareth Bale, Sam Vokes and current manager Craig Bellamy helped secure a 4-1 victory.

Craig Bellamy was subject to intense speculation over the vacancy of Burnley's managerial role this summer.

Bellamy has since said: "I had a decision to make and I made it.

"It didn't break down. I said no, it's not for me. That was it. There was no walk away from discussions. It wasn't for me.

"I made the decision to stay because this is the right place for me.

"We had a conversation, but I was already in a role and this (Wales) was what I wanted.

"It was flattering – we all like our ego being exercised and being wanted – but for me, my partner, my kids, this is the place and we didn't see anything else being able to move that.

"I'm comfortable with the decision I've made. I've always been committed in everything I do and that hasn't changed.

"Now, winning people over? I don't know, that's the honest truth."
