Draw

Japan

Match Preview

England should be expected to respond after an underwhelming draw with Uruguay, especially with several of Thomas Tuchel’s first-choice players likely to return to the starting XI at Wembley.

The Three Lions have remained strong at home under the German coach and have found the net consistently in recent fixtures, even when heavily rotated.

Japan arrive in excellent form and will offer a stern test, particularly on the break, but their willingness to play expansively could leave gaps at the back.

With fresher legs and greater attacking quality available, England are tipped to edge a competitive encounter.
