Heartbroken Hungary look forward to Slovenian challenge: How to watch Hungary vs Slovenia?

After missing out on the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification, Hungary and Slovenia will lock horns on Saturday evening in Budapest. With nothing but hope for the future, the fans will tune into the game. Our where to watch Hungary vs Slovenia guide will help you out in that regard.

The Hungarian National Football Team were moments away from clinching a World Cup playoff spot. After holding their own against Portugal, the Hungarian National Football Team was almost getting the job done. But Troy Parrott of Ireland had other ideas as he scored a last-gasp winner to end Hungary's World Cup dream. Marco Rossi will use this heartbreak to turn it into motivation as the upcoming 2028 Euro qualifiers begin. A rare meeting with their neighbours, Slovenia, is on the cards after 18 years.

In a group where favourites fumbled, the Slovenia National Football Team also did its own share of fumbling. No one expected them to finish below Kosovo with dreams of World Cup qualification on the line. Yet, with four draws and two defeats, they managed to finish third, and surprisingly, Sweden finished even below them. It was enough for the federation to bring up changes. Bostjan Cesar, the highest-capped Slovenian player, is taking over as the head coach of the national team. With eyes on the UEFA Nations League next, he is shaking up the squad as well. He was without stars like Benjamin Sesko and Jan Oblak while naming his first squad, though.
