What Time Are Ireland Playing Holland At And What Channel Is It On?

With the big game approaching, the perennial question fans are inclined to ask is - what time are Ireland playing Holland at and what channel is it on?

Ireland's penultimate pre-Euro 2016 warm-up game kicks off this Friday as Holland come to town. We have happy memories of pre-tournament friendlies with Holland. We won 1-0 in Tilburg in 1994 through a goal from Tommy Coyne.

The Dutch will be sitting at home for the duration of the tournament, following their shocking failure to finish in the top three of their group.

They travel to Dublin this weekend in preparation for a long summer on the beach. Ireland, meanwhile, head out on a five-day trip to Fota Island in Cork immediately after the game. They arrive at their Euro 2016 training camp in Versailles next Wednesday.

Martin O'Neill is likely to announce his final 23 man squad right on the UEFA deadline on the final day of May. Ireland will be one of the last teams in the competition to formally name their squad. Ireland's Group E rivals have all revealed their hand at this stage.
