The Republic of Ireland are in League B with the potential opponents of England and Wales.

Changes for 2024/25 UEFA Nations League - League B

- The UEFA Nations League will be expanded with a new knockout round to be played in March 2025, thereby creating continuity between the group phase ending in November and the finals played in June.
- The fourth-placed teams in League B are automatically relegated to League C.
- The four group winners in League B are automatically promoted to Leagues A.
- The third-ranked teams of League A and the runners-up of League B, as well as the third-ranked teams of League B and the runners-up of League C, will play a home-and-away promotion/relegation play-off.
- The expansion of the UEFA Nations League into the International Match Calendar window of March will only concern a selected number of teams and the remaining teams will already be available to start the European Qualifiers
