Forest’s International Cup group stage opponents confirmed
Reds to face sides from Dinamo Zagreb, Real Sociedad, Benfica and PSG
Relevant ticketing information to be confirmed
Nottingham Forest B Team’s opponents in the 2025/26 Premier League International Cup group stage have been confirmed as the young Reds look to defend their crown against some of the best young talent on the continent.
Warren Joyce’s side have been placed in Group C of this season’s competition, alongside Paris Saint-Germain, Dinamo Zagreb, Real Sociedad and SL Benfica.
Last season, our B Team faced sides from some of the best Academies in Europe, with victories over AS Monaco and Ajax paving the way for a penalty shoot-out victory over Lyon in the final at the City Ground in May.
The young Reds will kick-off the 2025/26 journey against Dinamo Zagreb in October, before facing Real Sociedad in November, Benfica in December and PSG in January.
The competition will follow the same format as recent seasons, with four English clubs placed alongside four European sides in the group stage.
The English clubs will not face each other in the group stage and the top two from each group, alongside the two best third place teams, will progress to the quarter final.
Each round will then be decided by a single knockout fixture until the champions are crowned.
The ticketing details for each match will be confirmed in due course.
