Their opening fixture is scheduled for Friday, September 25, against Guatemala. Four days later, on Tuesday, September 29, Jamaica will host Honduras. The team's initial group stage matches will conclude with an away game against El Salvador on October 1, followed by a return match against Honduras on Monday, October 5.

The draw for the fifth edition of the Concacaf Nations League took place on Thursday. The top two teams from each of the two groups will advance to the finals. There, they will join the top-ranked teams, two-time defending champions Mexico, the United States, Canada, and Panama, in the quarterfinals. The four winners of these quarterfinals will secure berths in the 2027 Concacaf Gold Cup.
