The Gozo representative football team (Maltese: It-tim rappreżentattiv Għawdxi tal-futbol) represents the island of Gozo, Malta, in football. It is organised by the Gozo Football Association and its home stadium is the Gozo Stadium.
It is not affiliated with FIFA or UEFA and therefore is not eligible to enter either the World Cup or the European Championship. The Gozo representative football team has however played a number of Non-FIFA international football matches featuring players who are considered as 'Gozitans' for matches of the Gozo Football League, including appearances at Island Games and the now-defunct Viva World Cup.
Moreover, as of 2024, Gozo[1] has also participated in 6 editions of UEFA Regions' Cup as Malta's representative, with their debut appearance coming in the inaugural edition in 1999.
Over the years, a Gozo XI has also played friendlies against football clubs; particularly those from the mainland, fielding players playing in the Gozo Football League and, occasionally, Gozitans playing in Malta.
