The 2020–21 UEFA Nations League D is the fourth and lowest division of the 2020–21 edition of the UEFA Nations League, the second season of the international football competition involving the men's national teams of the 55 member associations of UEFA.

Format

Following a format change from the first season, League D was reduced from 16 to 7 teams. The league will consist of the lowest ranked UEFA members from 49–55 in the 2018–19 UEFA Nations League overall ranking, to be split into two groups (one group of four teams and one group of three teams). Each team will play four or six matches within their group, using the home-and-away round-robin format on double matchdays in September, October and November 2020. The winners of both groups will be promoted to the 2022–23 UEFA Nations League C.

The draw for the league phase took place at the Beurs van Berlage Conference Centre in Amsterdam, Netherlands on 3 March 2020, 18:00 CET. Group D1 contains two teams from Pot 1 and two teams from Pot 2, while Group D2 contains two teams from Pot 1 and one team from Pot 2.

Groups

The original fixture list was confirmed by UEFA on 3 March 2020 following the draw. On 17 June 2020, the UEFA Executive Committee adjusted the league phase schedule for October and November 2020 to allow for the completion of the UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying play-offs. Following the change, a revised schedule for the October and November 2020 fixtures was released by UEFA on 26 June 2020.
