The Reggae Boyz are set to navigate Group B of League A in the Concacaf Nations League alongside Honduras, Trinidad and Tobago, Cuba, Nicaragua and French Guiana.

Jamaica are seeded as the top contenders in Group B after the nation's historic third-place finish in the competition's last edition earlier in March.

Teams in League A of the Nations League have been divided into two groups of six teams each, and each nation will play four games, twice at home and twice away.

Following the group stages, the bottom two teams in each group will be relegated to League B while the top two teams from each group will advance to the quarter-finals of the Nations League. They will be joined by the top four seeded teams of the region - United States of America, Mexico, Panama and Canada.

The competition will also serve as a qualification for the Concacaf Gold Cup next year.

The group stages for the League will be played in September and October later this year during the FIFA international windows with the quarter-finals set for November.

The Nations League final and third-place play-off will be played in March.
